Preface
Preface
Welcome to the Allen-Bradley PanelView e Transfer Utility 32. With
this software, you can transfer PanelBuilder applications to and from
an IBM-compatible personal computer and PanelView 1000e, and
1400e operator terminals. This utility is referred to as FTU 32 in this
manual and supports RSLinx drivers.
There are references to FTU ver 3 in this manual which is a 16 bit
PV “e”, upload/download program designed to be used on computers
with Windows 3.1 or Windows 95 operating systems along with
Interchange or WinLinx drivers. FTU ver 3 is included on the CD
with both PanelBuilder 1400e (2711E–ND1) and the separate
upload/download utility package, 2711E–ND7.
In addition, the PV 1200, DOS upload/download utility is also
included with catalog number 2711E–ND7 to support the original
12” CRT based PanelView 1200. This can be installed on the same
computer and accessed from FTU ver 3 above. See publication
2711–UM010B–EN–P, PanelBuilder 1200 Transfer Utility manual
for additional information.
Note: In all cases, the associated PanelBuilder software must be
used to save the file in downloadable format (*.pvd for PV ”e” and
*cfg for PV 1200) before the download utility is used.
