I know PLCs, but I usually work with Wago or Siemens. Our customer has specified Allen-Bradley for this current assignment. I received the AB software, but no manuals or installation instructions at all.
I have purchased, on the customer's recommendation, RSLogix 5000, RSView Studio, and RSView SE Station 25. The RSView boxes aren't even marked differently from one-another, except a sticker on the back. On top of that they don't say "RSView." They say "FactoryTalk View." These were purchased from our local AB distributor, so I'm hoping he knows more about this than I do and that I got the right software.
Anyway, I have installed RSLogix on a new Win XP laptop that has only WinXP Pro and Kaspersky installed on it. I want to know if I am supposed to install Studio on the same laptop, and therefore the RSView SE Station on the HMI? That's my guess, but I'd like a bit of knowledgeable input before I make a mistake.
Can anyone help me get started on this installation? The program itself is going to be simple.
