Transferring Via the Data Highway Plus and
Remote I/O
This chapter describes how to transfer application files to and from the
PanelView 1200 terminal via the Data Highway Plus and Remote I/O
networks using the PLC-5 Remote I/O Pass-Through. It tells you about:
the Pass-Through parameters you must configure
downloading an application file over the Data Highway Plus/Remote
I/O networks
uploading an application file over the Data Highway Plus/Remote I/O
networks
The PLC-5 Remote I/O Pass-Through feature enables you to download a
PanelBuilder application file over the Data Highway Plus and Remote I/O
networks, from your computer to a PanelView 1200 terminal.
You can do this without connecting the serial cable to the terminal and
without having to go from terminal to terminal with a PC for direct
downloading.
The following illustration shows how the application file is transferred
directly from the development computer to the PLC controller and then to
the PanelView 1200 terminal.
