2. In the Add HMI Server wizard, in the Select Operations window, click one of the
following options:
 Create a new HMI server . When you create an HMI server, the server’s HMI
project is created automatically.
 Copy an HMI server that already exists. After you have copied an HMI server,
changes made to the original do not affect the copy, or vice versa.
 Import a project from RSView32, FactoryTalk View SE, or FactoryTalk View
Machine Edition, as the basis for the new HMI server. After you have copied a
project, changes made to the original do not affect the copy, or vice versa.
 Attach to an existing HMI server without making a copy of the HMI server.
3. Click Next, and then follow the instructions in the wizard to finish adding the server.
After adding the HMI server, you can set up its properties. For details, see page 6-15.
Then, you can use editors in the Explorer window to create HMI project components,
such as graphic displays, HMI tags, and data log models.
You cannot attach to an existing HMI server that is being used in another application.
The Add Controller Instruction Faceplates dialog box opens, if it’s set to display when you create
a new HMI server. If you do not want to add faceplates, click Cancel to close the dialog box,
without affecting server creation. For more information about adding faceplates, see page 16-30.
