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 exclamation point icon to the right of 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. Select OK from the Deploy dialog box.

   The Deploy dialog box shows the progress of deploying all of the objects. The Undeployed icon disappears as each object is deployed.

4. On the Windows desktop, locate the AVEVA Application Manager icon and open it.

5. Select the ViewApp you want to run and click the LAUNCH button.

   The ViewApp should start running in a few seconds.
