FileUploadDirectory must describe the path of the runtime system, in which the Web
Server is available. "\visu" must be appended to the path. There all files required for
the Web-Visualization will be transferred.

Calling a Web-Visualization via Internet
Enter the following address in the web browser:

http://<IP_address of webserver>:<port of webserver>/<webvisu>.htm

Example:

http://localhost:8080/webvisu.htm

<webvisu>.htm is the htm-file defined in the Visualization Manager, via which after
the call the start visualization - also defined in the Visualization Manager - will be
displayed in the browser window. Thereafter the visualization can be operated in the
browser.

Visualization running in programming system
For diagnosis purposes it might be desired to run the application-assigned
visualization(s) only within the programming system without the need of
downloading visualization code to the device.
This "Diagnosis Visualization" as available from V3.3.2.0 will be used automatically if
there is no client object "TargetVisualization" or "WebVisualiaztion" inserted in the
devices tree below the Visualization Manager. In this case no visualization code is
created and transferred to the device. This however implies several restrictions as
listed below.
If you do not want to remove the TargetVisualization and/or WebVisualization objects
below the Visualization Managers' tree in order to get run the diagnosis mode of the
visualization, alternatively you might exclude the client objects from build by
activating the setting "Exclude from build" in the respective object properties.

Note: If in a project, which originally has been created with a version < V3.3.2.0, a
defined compiler version had been set, then the project will behave according to the
features of that version! Before V3.3.2.0 the setting "Do not use PLC for
visualization" had to be activated in order to get a visualization only run in the
programming system.

Numeric values visualized in a diagnosis visualization element ("%s" in the text
property), will be displayed according to the currently set online display mode (binary,
decimal, hexadecimal).

Note: In contrast to the Target-Visualization in the diagnosis visualization
VAR_INPUT variables behave like VAR_IN_OUTs.
