L11 - New Techniques to Increase Efficiency with PanelView™ Plus 6 Applications
Agenda Product Overview Device Connectivity Design-time Improvements Run-time Enhancements Demo Walk Through Hands on Lab
For a PanelView Plus or PanelView Plus CE terminal to communicate with a V20 controller the following is necessary Upgrade PanelView Plus or PanelView Plus CE to firmware 5.10.08 Upgrade FactoryTalk Services (FactoryTalk Diagnostics, FactoryTalk Service Platform, FactoryTalk Activation, and RSLinx Enterprise) to CPR9 SR5 version. There is a single downloadable install for this FT Service upgrade that is designed to require minimal user interaction with the install, and deliver all the products in a single install operation.See Knowbase Article #490905 It is not necessary to upgrade any FactoryTalk View v5.x application to a newer version Using PanelView Plus v5.10 with V20 Controllers
