Introducing the PanelView Terminals

Publication 2711E-821 – January 1998

You may notice a delay of 5 to 10 seconds when you switch from
Configure to Run mode to execute ControlNet applications. During
this time, the message “Initializing Communications” appears on the
screen. The delay occurs because the KTCX card has a separate
processor that takes 5 to 10 seconds to synchronize with ControlNet.
When you switch to Run mode the application screen will appear
after approximately 5 seconds. Then the message “Communication
Lost” will appear for approximately 5 seconds, while the connection
is established.

PLC-5/20C, 5/40C, 5/60C, 5/80C

The PanelView terminal can be connected to the PLC-5C enhanced
family of programmable controllers over ControlNet.
