I am using FactoryTalkView Studio - ME and a PanelView 7 panel.
The PanelView is at level 8.0.12 according to the terminal settings-system information -> about.
I have a program and tested it. Under Application, I selected Create Runtime Application and chose the Runtime 8.0 Application. It creates the .mer file with a few warnings about a possible gradient issue. I use the Tools -> Transfer Utility to send it to the panel. I did NOT have it run the program immediately, but choose to do it from the panel's configuration screen.
The file arrives. I choose Load Application and get the "Caution - cannot open file due to version incompatibility."
Since I'm new at AB, I tried creating a runtime for 8.10 (this is a BRAND new panel, so I found it odd, it has an old firmware version), but that had the same result.
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Do I have to upgrade to 8.10? (I guess I'd like to see it work before I break it doing the upgrade.)
Also what is the application/terminals communication configuration include and which should I choose?
Thanks.
