Run the Default System Platform ViewApp

System Platform provides a set of default symbols, apps, and other content, and templates that are accessible from the System Platform IDE. Folders containing default content and templates are located in the Template Toolbox and Graphic Toolbox.

A default ViewApp is also included. After deploying the ViewApp, you can run immediately without any editing.

To run the default ViewApp

1. Select the Deployment tab at the bottom left of the IDE.

   The Deployment view shows the arrangement of supporting system objects that are required to run a ViewApp. Beneath the ViewEngine object is the default ViewApp named OMI_ViewApp_Desktop.

   The yellow square next to each object indicates the object is in an undeployed state.

2. Select Deploy from the ribbon bar, or right-click and select it from the shortcut menu.

3. Click OK from the Deploy dialog box.

   The Deploy dialog box shows the progress of deploying all of the objects. The yellow square disappears after each object is deployed.

4. Show the Windows desktop and locate the AVEVA Application Manager icon.

5. Select AVEVA Application Manager to open it and click the LAUNCH button.

   The ViewApp should start running in several seconds.
