Preface
About This Publication
Use this manual to create a sample application to run in a PanelView
Component HMI terminal. You will use the design environment of the
PanelView Explorer software to create the application.
This manual describes the necessary tasks to connect your computer to a
PanelView Component terminal, launch the PanelView Explorer software in
your web browser, create a sample application in the design environment,
validate the application, and run the application while connected to a
Micrologix 1100 controller.
The beginning of each chapter contains the following information.
