Configuring PanelView Operator Terminals

Publication 2711E-821 – January 1998

Setting Address Source

To do a Pass-Through application file transfer, select either
Application or RIO Pass-Through for the Address Source. Network
Direct does not apply to Pass-Through file transfers. If an application
is already selected, the default is Application the first time you enter
this screen. When you re-enter the screen, the values that were
previously saved, appear.

When you set the Address Source to RIO Pass-Through, the current
application file is de-selected. You cannot set the Address Source
back to Application until you select a current application.

Important:

After a successful download of an application file using
Pass-Through, the terminal automatically resets the
Address Source to Application, uses the application file
parameters, and discards the Pass-Through parameters.

Application

ĊWhen you choose Application, the terminal uses

the current application file’s RIO Pass-Through parameters for
the file transfer. If the current application file contains a
Pass-Through configuration, its values are displayed in the
Terminal Network Setup Racks and Block Transfer Files screens.
The settings in the PanelBuilder application must match the
settings in the Terminal for the application to work correctly.

RIO PassĆThroughāĊāChoosing RIO Pass-Through Address
Source disables the configuration parameters for the
currently-selected application file. The default settings are
displayed, which you can change if required.

The default settings for the Pass-Through transfer are as follows:

PLC Type

PLC 5/25

Baud

57.6K

Rack Number

1

Word

0

Byte

Low

Module Group

0, 1

Last Chassis

Yes

The Rack, Module Group, and Last Chassis parameters enable you to
assign the terminal as one of the racks already configured in the PLC
scan list. When replacing an existing application, you don’t need to
reconfigure the PLC before or after Pass-Through Download if both
application files have the same rack configurations defined.
