Creating a Shortcut

You create a shortcut to an object or folder to provide a pointer that acts as if it is that object or folder.

You can create a shortcut to an EcoStruxure BMS server, folder or object anywhere in the System Tree pane.

If you attempt to create another shortcut with the same name as an existing shortcut within the same EcoStruxure BMS server or folder, you will be prevented from entering the duplicate name. If you attempt to drag-and-drop a shortcut to a destination where a shortcut exists with the same name, you will be presented with a dialog box explaining the other options available.

You can use more than one shortcut to refer to the same target object, but a shortcut can only refer to one target object. The target object keeps track of all shortcuts that refer to it (they behave as ordinary object references).

The following table shows the menu commands applicable to the creation of shortcuts for some common System Tree pane objects.

Shortcuts in EcoStruxure BMS Servers and Folders

You can create shortcuts in the root of an EcoStruxure BMS server or in an existing folder. A shortcut can reference objects in other EcoStruxure BMS servers. The menu commands applicable to the creation of shortcuts for EcoStruxure BMS servers and folders are shown in the table above.

If a shortcut object is created without specifying a target object, the (forward) target object reference is removed.

Shortcuts to Objects and Points

You can create shortcuts to objects or points (for example, a graphic or an analog value) within an EcoStruxure BMS server or folder. In these cases, the target object is automatically displayed in the properties dialog box of the shortcut. The menu commands applicable to the creation of shortcuts for some example objects and points are shown in the table above.

To create a shortcut

  1. In WorkStation, in the System Tree pane, select the object you want to create the shortcut for.

  2. Right-click and drag the object to the EcoStruxure BMS server or folder where you want the shortcut.

  3. Click Create Shortcut .
