When you delete an area, HMI servers and data servers located in the area are not
deleted from disk.

Adding an HMI server

After you create a network station application, you must add one HMI server, either to the
application’s root area, or to the area you have added.

A network station application can contain one and only one HMI server.

To add an HMI server

1. In FactoryTalk View Studio, in the Explorer window, right-click the application root

or right-click an area name, select Add New Server > HMI Server.

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.
