Use an SQL Queries List to Display a Mimic

You can use an SQL Queries List in ViewX or Virtual ViewX to display a Mimic—simply display a List that contains the Mimic you want to display, then select the Mimic to display its context sensitive menu. From the context sensitive menu, you can select the Display, Display Default View, Display Alarm View, Display Help View, Display <Extra Link Field>, Edit or Show References option as required. These options work in the same way as described in Use the Database Bar to Display a Mimic.

Alternatively, you can select a hyperlink to the Mimic from an appropriate column in an SQL List. The columns that contain hyperlinks are:

• AlarmViewLink—provides a hyperlink to the Mimic that is configured as the item’s Alarm View
• HelpViewLink—provides a hyperlink to the Mimic that is configured as the item’s Help View
• DefaultViewLink—provides a hyperlink to the Mimic that is configured as the item’s Default View
• ObjectLink—provides a hyperlink that displays the Mimic that is named in the ObjectLink column.
