I have a working HMI+PLC (PowerPanel 400, 4pp420.1043-75) on the floor right now. Instead of downloading programs or mods to it I would like to do so on a brand new unit I'm trying to put together on a bench. I have a brand new B&R Compact Flash card (empty), and a brand new POWERLINLK comm. card attached to the PowerPanel 400. I'm used to Allen Bradley and just being able to go online and upload a program to my laptop. However, with B&R I'm not sure how to get started. How do I create a new project? When I try to create a new one Automation Studio 3.0 tries to communicate with the brand new PowerPanel 400 but it can't (I'm assuming it can't since it says unable to detect hardware configuration and there's no lights on on the Ethernet outlet nor my laptop).
When I try to start up with an empty CF card it tells me it is not a bootable drive.
Any help will be greatly appreciated !
Thanks in advance !
