Hello All,
I was chatting with a new member to the forum this morning about resetting a numeric display value on his HMI.
Seemed easy enough he had a PanelView and was using a AB PLC.
But then he said he is using Kepware as a go between from the PLC to the HMI.
See thread here. http://www.plctalk.net/qanda/showthread.php?t=92948
This got me wondering --- Why would you need or want to use another 3rd party software to go between these two devices.
I have no real working need to know or understand this at the moment but was just curious.
If anyone can shed some light on this I would be most interested.
Have a good one.
