Hello everyone,
First-time user of FactoryTalk 7.0 here. I have no prior experience programming HMI's / OIT's. I found the 600+ page manual online for FactoryTalk ...however I haven't found any useful tutorial videos or "primers"...wish there was something out there that would help
I wrote a program in RSLogix500 for a MicroLogix controller. It is a fairly simple program used to control two pumps. I received a program .apa file that I want to use as a starting point for my HMI. When I try to open this file I get two options:
>>Restore the FactoryTalk View Machine Edition application;
>>Restore the FactoryTalk View Machine Edition application and FactoryTalk Local Directory
I do not know which option to choose for my situation. Help?
