I have run into a situation where I am now on "borrowed time". Our company has finally used it's last PV600 "spare" and now we are going to have to make the leap to the PanelView Plus 700.
I have been in charge of the conversion and for the most part everything has gone as smoothly as possible. I was able to get all the tags set up properly and I have communications to the PLC. This is where my two problems/questions come into play.
1.) On the PanelView 600, every time there was an "alarm" event, a banner would pop up and to acknowledge this, the operator would have to press F10. I am getting the same alarm banner on the new PanelView Plus but I can not seem to get the alarm to acknowledge. If I press other function keys, I can see items changing on the screen behind the banner though. No matter what I try, I can not get the Alarms banner to clear. What is the trick to this issue?
2. I have noticed that the communications between the screen and PV are really slow on the new panelview too. I saw somewhere about a tech note on how to address this issue and speed up the communications but now I can not find it. What is the method to speed up communications?
Thank you for your time...
