Using PanelView Plus v5.10 with V20 Controllers

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

Directly Access non-Controller Devices

Two methods to read/write devices without bridging through a controller EDS Parameters Data Table

Supports EDS Parameter tag browsing

Additional @Predefined tags for new device connections


Access Device Data Without Consuming Controller Resources

EDS Parameters Tag browsing

Similar to “offline” folders for controllers Uses [Params] section of EDS file

Reading and Writing Uses Link Path, Data Type and Data

Size entries of EDS file Use connected messaging

Diagnostics and Error handling similar to controller communications

EDS Files are open text files 16,775 EDS files on Rockwell Automation’s

website12


Increase Value of Smart Devices

CIP Data Table object Tag browsing

Similar to controller “online” browsing Device symbols built in to firmware

Reading and Writing Uses symbolic addressing enabled by

the Data Table object Uses connected messaging

Diagnostics and Error handling similar to controller communications

Devices that support Data Table Ex.: Smart Overloads, Power Monitors,

etc.13

Observe Application Status

USB Camera ActiveX Embed live USB video feed on display Snapshot capability Camera determines available frame

rates and sizes


Retrieve Runtime Terminal Information

Terminal Info ActiveX Capture information for internal and

external NIC TCP/IP device name TCP/IP address Subnet mask MAC Id

Capture terminal environmental data at runtime Temperatures (CPU, Display) Load (CPU, Memory) Battery voltage


Simplify Complex Runtime Tasks

Macro Multiplexer ActiveX Programmatic control of macro

execution Index tags selects one of up to 100

configured macro to execute Implement more than one ActiveX to

control more than 100 macros

Case Statement ActiveX Quickly convert a number to a string Supports six operations

LEQ, LES, EQU, NEQ, GRT, GEQ Create up to 50 test cases Support default result case Implement more than one ActiveX to

handle more than 50 test cases

Eliminates the need to use large complex IF-ELSEIF constructs in macros


Increase Flexibility of Reusable Components

Added variable capability to GotoDisplay and Macro button

Allows programmatic control of the target (display destination or macro)

New connection supports literals (“myDisplay”), tags ({myTag}), and placeholders ({#1})


Expanded Data Logging Capability

Increased data model size to 1,000,000 records @ 10ms log rate application can store data for 2.78hrs @ 1s log rate application can store data for 11.57days @ 10s log rate application can store data for 115.7 days @ 60s log rate application can store data for 1.90 yrs


Additional Features

Load to SD card Save internal storage space System runs MER from SD card

Scroll diagnostic messages left and right to view entire message
