Shortcuts without targets and shortcuts to objects are non-presentation objects. By default, non-presentation objects are not displayed in the System Tree, except when selected by means of the System Tree filter. However, a shortcut with an EcoStruxure BMS server or a folder as a target is a presentation object and is always displayed in the System Tree.
When a shortcut is created in an EcoStruxure BMS server or folder by means of the File-New submenu or the New-Shortcut command of the Context menu, the shortcut has no valid target. In this case, only the overlay icon (a small arrow in a square) is displayed (because no target type is assigned).
When a target is assigned, the overlay icon of the shortcut is added on top of the icon of the target. Für weitere Informationen siehe Shortcut Properties – Basic Tab .
The following figure is an example of a shortcut for an analog value in the System Tree:
When you click a shortcut, the address of the shortcut is displayed in the address bar and the name of the shortcut is displayed in the the tab of the shortcut window.
