You can set up keys and graphic objects to run commands at run time. You can also run
commands from the HMI server’s command line, or create a list of commands in a macro,
and run the macro in places where the commands are required.

Use the Command Wizard for assistance with selecting and building commands.

Opening the Command Wizard

To open the Command Wizard, use one of these methods:

Click the Browse button beside a text box where a command is expected, for example,
in the Press action text box for a button object, or in the Command Line.

Double-click in a box where a command is expected or in the Macros editor.

From the Edit menu, select Commands.

For information about specific FactoryTalk View commands, click Help.

Building expressions

Many editors use expressions to compute values based on tags and functions. Expressions
can be complex logical expressions, or they can be tag names.

For more information, see Chapter 20, Creating expressions.

Printing from FactoryTalk View SE

From each FactoryTalk View SE editor, you can print selected items or the editor’s entire
contents.

When you click a
category on the left,
commands in that
category are shown
on the right.

To resize the list
boxes, drag this bar
left or right.

When you click a
command, its syntax
is shown here.
