How Do I Edit PanelView Plus (1000) File?
Feel stupid asking such a basic question, but they asked me to make a change to this PanelView Plus app here at work (I'm not the "PLC guy' here), and I don't know *how* to open the darn thing. *It was hard enough just trying to *find* the app.
I've got two files. *One is type "FT View Archive File" and the other is "RSView ME Station File". *I tried starting up "FactoryTalk View ME Station" and it brought up a simple panel with *"Load Application" and "Terminal Settings" buttons active, but all that seems to do is RUN the panel. *Can't seem to edit it that way. *
I also see "FactoryTalk View Studio", but when I start *that* up, it asks me to choose an application type to configure (something new?).
There's also something here called "Application Manager" which pops up a dialog with (4) radio buttons for Machine Edition or (3) Site Editions (Local, Network, or Network Distributed). *If I select "Machine Edition" and click "Next", there's a button to "Restore Application". *Is that what I want to do (to restore the Archive File)????
Why is everything about Rockwell so convoluted and confusing? *
