Installing PanelView 1200e Terminals

Publication 2711E-821 – January 1998

Switching Modes

The terminal operates in Configure and Run modes. Configure mode
lets you set up the terminal and Run mode executes the application
file. To switch between modes, you can use either of the following
methods:

the hardware Mode Select Keyswitch, located at the back of the
terminal.

the Software Mode Switch (available in PanelView firmware
version 3 and above) that you can set to Enable or Disable from
the Terminal Configuration screen. For details, see Mode Switch
in Chapter 5 of this manual.

Note: The terminal communicates with your PLC only when the
terminal is in Run mode, so set it to this mode to monitor and control
your PLC application.

With the optional Remote Keyswitch Assembly, you can access the
Mode Select Keyswitch and RS-232 port from the front of the rack
where the terminal is mounted. For more information on the Remote
Keyswitch Assembly, see Connecting the Remote Keyswitch
Assembly
later in this chapter.

Connecting Power to the Terminal

Power requirements for the terminal are 115 Vac (60 Hz) or 230 Vac
(50 Hz).

Before connecting the power cable to the power connector at the rear
of the terminal, make sure the cable is not carrying power. Because
the terminal has no power switch, connecting the ac power will start
the terminal if power is present in the cable.

!

ATTENTION: Be sure to connect the wire to Ground
(GND) on the power connector. Failure to do so could
result in electrical hazard to the operator (and damage
to the equipment).

!

ATTENTION: Both the ac supply and the relay
output connectors look the same so be very careful to
wire them correctly. Incorrect power wire connection
can damage the terminal.
