Configure freeform displays

URL composition

A typical URL for a freeform display includes the following components:

Base URL: The base URL uses the configured Web Server and Website properties under the Connection category. Base URL example:
https://PISystemServer/PIVision/#

URL Parameters: You can pass additional URL parameters that are appended to the base URL, via the Display URL Parameters property. For example, you can pass parameters to show an event comparison display, to configure the pane appearance via a stylesheet or to hide the toolbar, or to configure a time range.

For an Event Detail display, enter the following Display URL Parameters:

EventDetails?srcdisplayid=23&server=PIVISIONSERVERP&eventid=c80dc366-82e4-11ec-a058-00155d754303

For an Event Comparison display, enter:

EventComparison/24

To hide the toolbar on an Event Display, enter:

EventDetails?server=srcdisplayid=23&server=PIVISIONSERVERP&eventid=c80dc366-82e4-11ec-a058-00155d754303&hidetoolbar

To configure the time range on an event Comparison Display, enter:
