Virtual ViewX is supported by Geo SCADA Expert 2019 onwards. We strongly recommend that you install the Virtual ViewX server on a different machine to the Geo SCADA Expert server. This is to avoid potential performance issues due to the number of resources that each application uses.
If you do install Geo SCADA Expert and Virtual ViewX on the same machine, both applications must have the same version and build number. This is because the applications share some resources.
The Virtual ViewX server is designed to run on a computer that has certain other components installed. The components comprise a combination of the following:
- Visual C++ 2005 SP1 x86
- Visual C++ 2008 SP1 x86
- Visual C++ 2010 SP1 x86
- Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2012 Update 4 x86
- Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2013 Update 5 x86
- Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2017 x86
- .NET Framework 4.7.1
- MSXML 4.0 SP2 Parser and SDK
- SAP Crystal Reports runtime engine for .NET Framework (32-bit)
- Sentinel System Driver Installer 7.5.8
- EcoStruxure Geo SCADA Virtual ViewX Manager.
WARNINGDO NOT UNINSTALL PREREQUISITE COMPONENTS
When you install Virtual ViewX, the components that are essential for Virtual ViewX to run on your operating system are installed automatically. A prompt is displayed for non-essential components, allowing you to choose the components that are relevant to your system.
We suggest that you only choose to install components that you need for your system.
Installing components that are not needed on your system uses up disk space unnecessarily.
