2–3 Setting Up PanelBuilder 1400e
Publication 2711E-818 – January 1998
Note: To communicate over a ControlNet network, you must use
a PanelView 1000e, 1200e, or 1400e terminal that has been
upgraded to include an ISA Card Adapter (Catalog Number
2711E-NA1 or 2711E-NA2) and a 1784-KTCX or 1784-KTCX15
card. Or you can use the new PanelView 1400e terminals that
support ControlNet communications (Catalog Numbers
2711E-K14C7, 2711E-K14C15, 2711E-T14C7, 2711E-T14C15),
or the new PanelView 1000e terminals that support ControlNet
communications (Catalog Numbers 2711E-K10C7,
2711E-K10C15, 2711E-T10C7, and 2711E-T10C15). These
terminals are ready to use with your ControlNet network.
PanelBuilder 1400e is offered in the CD-ROM format. The
PanelBuilder 1400e CD contains these software applications:
PanelBuilder 1400e, PanelView 1200/1400e Transfer Utility, and the
Serial Firmware Upgrade Utility. RSLinx Lite software on 3.5-inch
floppy disks is also included in the PanelBuilder 1400e software kit;
when Version 4 is selected as the install version, RSLinx Lite
software provides communication drivers for network file transfers.
You can obtain 3.5-inch floppy disks of the software applications by
creating them from the PanelBuilder 1400e CD or by sending in the
FAX Back form provided with the PanelBuilder 1400e software kit
(A-B Catalog Number 2711E-ND1). For instructions on how to
create floppy disks of the software from the CD, refer to the file,
Floppies.txt, in the root directory of the PanelBuilder 1400e CD.
Note that the PanelBuilder 1400e application requires nine floppy
disks, the Transfer Utility application requires two floppy disks, and
the Serial Firmware Upgrade Utility application requires two floppy
disks.
The CD-ROM includes two install versions for the PanelBuilder
1400e software:
•
Version 3—This version offers you PanelBuilder 1400e for use
with Windows 3.1 or later, or Windows 95. Version 3 supports
PanelView application file transfers over networks using
INTERCHANGE and WINtelligent LINX software drivers.
•
Version 4—This version offers you PanelBuilder 1400e for use
with Windows 95 or Windows NT. Version 4 supports PanelView
application file transfers over networks using RSLinx software

If your operating system is Windows 3.1 or later, the CD-ROM will
automatically install Version 3. If your operating system is Windows
95, you have the choice of installing Version 3 or Version 4, although
Version 4 is recommended. If your operating system is Windows NT,
