FactoryTalk Quick Start Overview
This guide is for connection WIN-911 V7 to FactoryTalk View SE with HMI tags. The WIN-911 SE Direct Connect provides integration with a FactoryTalk View SE Client using HMI tags. In using the SE Direct Connect, WIN-911 will link to a running FT Client (both need to run on the same machine/session), providing a seamless and dynamic transfer of alarms to WIN-911. Due to the nature of the WIN-911 Direct Connects, tags are dynamic, meaning the defined alarm set points from within the SCADA, will carry over into the WIN-911 run-time.
WIN-911 FactoryTalk View SE Direct Connect supports the following features:
Alarm import
Analog tags
Digital tags
Watchdogs
Re-connection if data link is lost
Alarm Bypass
Dial-out Override
WIN-911 FactoryTalk View SE Direct Connect does not support the following features:
Networked connection
ALARM OFF command from FactoryTalk View
SUPPRESS command from FactoryTalk View
Filters tags

Data Pokes
The below sections will discuss how to export tags from FactoryTalk Studio, import tags into WIN-911, and how to connect directly to a FactoryTalk SE Client.
