Chapter 7 Qualify the Runtime Application
Test Run the Application After testing and verifying that each graphic display is error free, you
are ready to test run the entire application. Application Test mode lets
you navigate through the entire application to validate functions not
tested in Display Test mode. Some of these features include alarming,
data logging, information messages, global connections, and macros.
As you navigate through displays in Application Test mode, the
Diagnostic List logs warnings and errors as they occur. Correct all
logged errors and then retest the application to validate error
correction.
Follow these steps to test run an application.
1. Open your converted
application in FactoryTalk
View ME software.
2. Test the application in one
of two ways.
•
Choose Test Application
from the Application menu
•
or click the Test Application
icon on the toolbar.

hour limit for using the
runtime emulator.
3. Press x on your keyboard to
exit the emulator.
TIP
Local messages and graphic objects configured for multiple
languages will display in the application’s current language
while in Test Application mode.
