Run a standalone application

You view a running application from WindowViewer. After you have finished, your Mixing Station window should look like the following example.

In this example, a window script begins running when viewing the application. The script assigns states and values to the assigned InTouch HMI tags associated with the symbols shown in the application’s window.

The following example shows the Chocolate Milk application immediately after starting it in WindowViewer. All of the valves are closed and the mixing tank is empty.

Typically, Situational Awareness Library symbols use fill shading to indicate their current state. Open the Chocolate or Milk valve by selecting a rocker switch. Notice the change in the fill color that indicates the valve is open. Also, the fill color of the agitator and meter symbols change to indicate they are in an active state or showing a value.

When the tank volume reaches 500 liters, the agitator starts, and its current RPM appears next to the agitator. Alarms occur if the tank volume exceeds 1400 liters or the agitator exceeds 1500 RPM. You manage alarms by selecting options from the shortcut menu of the Alarm Viewer control.
