The following diagram illustrates a typical and a customized configuration for AutoVue 2D Viewer with MCS and FCS in the same network:



The table below explains the two setups:

Installation SetupDescription
Typical InstallationA typical installation consists of the following:
  • 1 AutoVue 2D Viewer Client (C2C - Client component) on the MCS
  • 1 AutoVue 2D Viewer Client (C2C - Client component) on each FCS
  • 1 AutoVue 2D Viewer Server (C2S - Server component) associated to the MCS
  • 1 AutoVue 2D Viewer Server (C2S - Server component) associated to each FCS
Customized Setup

A customized setup may consist of the following:

  • Several FCSs with the MCS sharing the same AutoVue 2D Viewer Server (C2S - Server component) as long as they all belong to the same LAN.
  • The AutoVue 2D Viewer Server (C2S - Server component) can be installed either on a dedicated machine or on the MCS/FCS machine it will connect to.

  • When the FCS is the same as the MCS (FCS URL = MCS URL), then the web.xml and the AutoVue 2D Viewer Client (C2C) components deployed on the MCS machine are considered.
  • When the FCS is different than the MCS (FCS URL MCS URL), then the web.xml and the AutoVue 2D Viewer Client (C2C) components deployed on the FCS machine are considered.

The web.xml should be modified such that it references the correct machine on which AutoVue 2D Viewer Server (C2S - Server component) is running. On modifications to the web.xml, see FCS Settings for C2D Files.
