New in Version 10, all Synthesis desktop applications now use Synthesis Locator Links (similar to Windows shortcuts) to provide quick access to specific analyses in a Synthesis repository.
You can save these link files anywhere on your computer or network, e-mail to a colleague, post on the Internet or an intranet, etc.
When you double-click (open) a Synthesis Locator Link file (*.rsll), it will launch the appropriate Synthesis application and go directly to a specific project item (e.g., folio, diagram, plot, system hierarchy item, etc.) or FMEA record (e.g., function, failure, etc.), as long as the following conditions are met:
The database still resides in the same location and you have access to the server.
You have an active user account in the database.
The required Synthesis application is activated on your computer.
Tip: In the case of a standard database or Synthesis file, the locator link stores the pathname/filename that was open when the *.rsll file was created. If that was a mapped network drive (e.g., P:\Synthesis\Repository1.rsr10), the link will only work if all other users have that drive mapped to the same letter. To make sure the link works for all users, you may need to open the database from the UNC pathname (e.g., \\SharedDrive\Synthesis\Repository1.rsr10) before creating a locator link file.
In an enterprise database, you can choose to either send the file by e-mail or save it to a specified location. In a standard database or Synthesis file, the only option is to save the file because it is likely that the pathname may only work on your own PC (as discussed above).
For an item selected in a current project explorer (Weibull++/ALTA, BlockSim/RENO, DOE++, RGA or Lambda Predict), choose Project > Current Item.
For an item selected in an Xfmea/RCM++/RBI system hierarchy, use System Hierarchy > Current Item.
For an item, structure or zone selected in an MPC hierarchy, use [Systems/Structures/Zones] > Tools.
Remember that Synthesis Locator Links are files that must be opened from a computer where Synthesis desktop applications are installed. If you post the *.rsll as a standard link on an HTML web page, you will need to instruct users to download the file (instead of opening directly from the web browser).
