6. Choose OK.
A dialog box appears, informing you of the conversion status.
When the conversion is finished the Application Window appears.
The application’s name is displayed in the title bar.
Note: This application is configured for Remote I/O. While you
could switch network types to Data Highway Plus, ControlNet, or
Modbus for the purpose of this tutorial the application will remain
configured for Remote I/O.
Before you start editing it, save the application.
To save the application:
1. Choose Save Application As... from the File menu.
2. Specify the drive and directory where you want to save the file, or
accept the default directory.
3. If you want to rename the file, type a new name for your file in
the File Name field. Or, you can save the application under the
existing name. Because it will be saved under a different file
extension, it won’t overwrite the existing file.
4. Choose OK.
Note that PanelBuilder 1400e automatically adds .pvc as the file
extension.
Once you’ve saved your file, you can start editing it. You can go
directly to Chapter 5 and continue the tutorial. But we recommend
that you complete this chapter first because it guides you through the
existing screens and explains how the objects work. In addition, it
explains the features you’ll be adding to enhance the application.
The copier application contains four application screens:
•
