Hi all, i am running a PVP1000. The details are as follows:
CAT: 2711p-rp6
Firmware: 5.00.04.55 (CPR9)
I bought this version of PVP logic module because it has Windows CE installed.
My goal is to control the HMI from a PC or an ipad using VNC viewer.
Problem is, the logic module i purchased does not have VNC installed, even though it has Windows CE installed.
I have noticed that it has remote desktop available. At this stage, i get the impression my only option is to control the HMI via PC using Windows 7 Pro using Remote Access.
This means i will not be able to control the unit using an ipad.
Is this correct?
Do i have any options? Such as installing another program into the PVP, (can this even be done? if so how?). What about updating the firmware? Will a newer firmware version have VNC in it?
What i have attempted so far:
1. followed instructions from this video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s8_GAzgqeyU&t=188s
2. Opened control panel looking for server config. This does not appear to exist.
3. Downloaded a copy of VNC and Teamviewer using a different computer and saved on a memory stick. Plugged memory stick into PVP. PVP can see memory stick, but cannot see any of the programs. This may be the memory stick format may not match the very old version of windows in the PVP. It could be PVP does not allow reading memory sticks? Advice?
