Find Files

Select Start>Programs>Windows Explorer to locate files on the
PanelView Plus CE terminal

.

You can alternately double-click the My

Computer icon on the Desktop to open the Windows Explorer
program. The Windows Explorer web browser lets you browse and
manipulate the PanelView Plus CE files and folders. The Edit menu
lets you move files from one location to another by using the Copy or
Cut and Paste commands. When you create and save a new file, it is
stored in the My Documents folder unless you specify another
location.

Browse Web Pages

Select Start>Programs>Internet Explorer to view Web pages. You can
alternately double-click the Internet Explorer icon on the desktop to
open the Internet Explorer program. To access pages stored on the
PanelView Plus CE terminal, use the File>Open command and select
the Browse button to locate the file. To view Internet or intranet
pages, type a URL in the Address box.

Before you can access remote Web pages, the PanelView Plus CE
terminal must be connected to a network. See the section on Network
and Dialup Connections for details on configuring the Ethernet
interface. Additional network settings such as a Proxy Server can be
configured in the Internet Explorer application by using the Options
command under the View menu.

The Microsoft Internet Explorer application is similar to the personal
computer version. It offers many of the same features of the personal
computer version, and can be used to view most Internet HTML Web
pages. Some advanced Web features may not be fully supported.

Print

Some PanelView Plus CE software applications may support printing.
To print from these applications, select the File>Print command. A
PCL compatible printer must be connected to the USB or Ethernet port
on the PanelView Plus CE terminal.

TIP

The PanelView Plus CE file system resides in RAM and flash
memory. RAM is volatile and is not persistent after a power
cycle. Save files that must be persistent to the\Storage Card
Folder that resides on the internal CompactFlash card.
