To add an RSLinx Enterprise server to a network distributed
application
1. In the FactoryTalk View Studio, in the Explorer window, right-click the application
name or an area, select Add New Server > Rockwell Automation Device Server
(RSLinx Enterprise).
2. Provide a name and an optional description, and then specify the name of the
computer hosting RSLinx Enterprise.
Setting up support for FactoryTalk Alarms and Events
After you add an RSLinx Enterprise server to an application, you must set up the server to
support FactoryTalk Alarms and Events.
To do this, in the server’s Properties dialog box (shown in the next illustration), select the
check box, Enable alarm and event support.
If you do not enable this when the RSLinx Enterprise server is created, you can modify the
server, but the server will have to be restarted.
