So, I went to install Factor Talk View ME which requires Factory Talk Services Platform, and I started to wonder what exactly this does. I have never used it (knowingly). What is it? Is it for clients?
I have only installed RS Logix 500, RS Logix 5000, Panel Builder, and RS Linx Classic so far, and my computer is still fast (LOL). My last computer had more HMI software, and with 80 processes running it was slower than ****. I'm just trying to understand why I need this "extra" **** that will undoubtedly run in the background forever robbing me of time.
Luckily I now have a separate PC for Siemens.
Thanks
PS. I tried to read about it on the AB website, but it just described the features and had no information on how or why to use it (in a strictly design environment).
