Chapter 2 Installation

Environment and Enclosure

For more enclosure and certification information, refer to the PanelView

Plus/PanelView Plus CE Outdoor High-bright Display Modules Installation

Instructions, publication 2711P-IN026

Outdoor Installation for

High-bright Displays

When using the high-bright display module, cat. no. 2711P-RDT12H, outdoors,

considerations in maximizing the field life of the front bezel and display are:

 selecting the proper enclosure.

 orientation of the terminal.

Both ultraviolet and infrared radiation can reduce the field life of any electronic

device. While the materials used in the terminal bezels provide long field life, that

life can be extended by proper installation.

Ultraviolet radiation from the sun causes all plastics to fade or yellow and become

brittle over time. Using an antiglare overlay, cat. no. 2711P-RGT12, will protect

the front of the terminal from direct exposure to UV radiation and greatly

increase its field life.

ATTENTION

This equipment is intended for use in a Pollution Degree 2 industrial environment,

in overvoltage Category II applications (as defined in IEC 60664-1), at altitudes up

to 2000 m (6561 ft) without derating.

The terminals are intended for use with programmable logic controllers. Terminals

that are AC powered must be connected to the secondary of an isolating

transformer. Terminals that are DC Class 2 powered may be supplied from an

isolated DC source when used with the indicated fuse kit.

This equipment is considered Group 1, Class A industrial equipment according to

IEC/CISPR 11. Without appropriate precautions, there may be difficulties ensuring

electromagnetic compatibility in residential and other environments due to

conducted or radiated disturbances.

This equipment is supplied as open-type equipment. It must be mounted within an

enclosure that is suitably designed for those specific environmental conditions that

will be present and appropriately designed to prevent personal injury resulting

from accessibility to live parts. The interior of the enclosure must be accessible only

by the use of a tool. The terminals meet specified NEMA Type and IEC ratings only

when mounted in a panel or enclosure with the equivalent rating. Subsequent

sections of this publication may contain additional information regarding specific

enclosure type ratings that are required to comply with certain product safety

certifications.

In addition to this publication, see:

 Industrial Automation Wiring and Grounding Guidelines, publication

1770-4.1

, for additional installation requirements.

 NEMA Standards 250 and IEC 60529, as applicable, for explanations of the

degrees of protection provided by different types of enclosure.

Rockwell Automation Publication 2711P-UM001K-EN-P - February 2020 33

Installation Chapter 2

When installing the high-bright display module in an environment where the

front of the terminal will be in direct sunlight during the hottest part of the day

and the external ambient temperature can exceed 40 °C (104 °F), use the visor kit,

cat. no. 2711P-RVT12. The visor reduces the solar load on the front of the

display and helps to maintain internal temperatures within specification.

The high-bright display module has a built-in temperature sensor that

automatically reduces the backlight intensity if the temperature inside the cabinet

exceeds 55 °C (131 °F). This reduces the risk of damage to the display.

The paint color, size, and power dissipated by the internal components of an

enclosure affect the temperature rise inside the cabinet. Hoffman, a Rockwell

Automation Encompass Partner, has information to assist you with enclosure

selection and heating/cooling accessories to meet the temperature requirements

of the installed equipment. See website http://www.hoffmanonline.com.

Stirring fans or active cooling may be required in high altitude and high ambient

temperature locations to keep the internal enclosure temperature below 55 °C

(131 °F). Use a heater in installations where the ambient temperature is below 0

°C (32 °F).

The backlight of the high-bright display generates a significant amount of heat

when set to full intensity. To minimize the amount of heat generated and extend

the life of the backlight, decrease the display intensity by using the screen saver

with a 5…10 minute delay.

Avoid placing the terminal on the south (north in the southern hemisphere) or

west side of the cabinet, if possible. This will reduce the heat rise due to solar

loading during the hottest part of the day.

Mount the terminal vertically to minimize solar loading on the display. Do not

mount the terminal in a sloped enclosure if it will be exposed to direct sunlight.

Chapter 3 Power Connections

External Power Supply For Non-insolated DC Terminals

Use a single, 24V DC power supply to power each PanelView Plus device, such as

cat. no. 1606-XLE120E. Using a separate, isolated and ungrounded source to

power each terminal prevents ground loop currents from damaging the terminals.

The output on the power supply must be isolated from the input and not

connected to earth/ground.

The non-isolated power supply does not provide galvanic isolation. A Class 2 or

Safety Extra-Low Voltage (SELV) isolated power supply with a 24V DC nominal

output voltage is required to power the terminal.

Multiple AC Power Supplies to Power Multiple DC Terminals

TIP

To identify non-isolated DC logic modules refer to the Logic Modules (700 to

1500 only) table on page 22.

TIP

All 400 and 600 DC terminals contain non-isolated DC power supplies.

ATTENTION

Use a Class 2 or SELV supply as required by local wiring codes for your

installation. The Class 2 and SELV power sources provide protection so

that under normal and single-fault conditions, the voltage between the

conductors, and between the conductors and functional earth or

protective earth does not exceed a safe value.

External Power for 700 to 1500 Isolated DC Terminals

(2711P-R

Logic Modules)

Use an SELV or PELV 24V DC power supply, such as cat. no. 1606-XLE120E, to

power the isolated DC PanelView Plus terminal.

The isolated DC terminals may be powered by the same power source as other

equipment, by a DC power bus.

Earth/Ground Connection

PanelView Plus devices with a DC power input have an earth/ground terminal

that you must connect to a low-impedance earth/ground.

 The 700 to 1500 terminals have the earth/ground connection on the rear

of the display module.

 The 400 and 600 terminals have the functional earth/ground connection

on the power input terminal block.

The earth terminal requires a minimum wire gauge.

Earth Wire Specifications for DC Power

ATTENTION

Use an SELV or PELV supply as required by local wiring codes for your

installation. The SELV and PELV power sources provide protection so that

under normal and single fault conditions, the voltage between conductors

and earth/ground does not exceed a safe value.

IMPORTANT

The earth/ground connection to ground is mandatory. This connection is

required for noise immunity, reliability, and Electromagnetic Compliance

(EMC) with the European Union (EU) EMC directive for CE-mark

conformance and is required for safety by Underwriters Laboratory.

Modify Display Settings

You can access and modify these display settings for your terminal:

 View display temperature

 Adjust display contrast

 Adjust display intensity

 Configure the screen saver

 Enable or disable the screen cursor

View the Display Temperature

To view the current temperature of the display, select Terminal

Settings>Display>Display Temperature.

The PanelView Plus 600 to 1500 terminals have a cold-cathode fluorescent lamp

(CCFL) backlight. This backlight requires temperature control when the

internal temperature of the product is below 10 °C (50 °F) or above 60 °C (140

°F). The terminal monitors low and high temperature conditions.

 If the internal temperature of the product is below 10 °C (50 °F), the

backlight is set to overdrive or the full-rated current setting for at least five

minutes.

 If the internal temperature is at or above 60 °C (50 °F), the backlight is set

to underdrive; 40% or less of full brightness. This reduces heat generation

from the backlight.

Temperature monitoring begins when the terminal powers on, or when the

backlight turns on, for example, exiting Screen Saver mode. The temperature

control affects only display intensity; it does not restrict the use or operation of

the terminal.

When a low or high temperature condition is detected, an error is sent to the

system event log. If the temperature control is not functioning, a noncritical error

is sent to the system event log but the terminal continues to operate normally.

Adjust the Display Contrast

You can view or modify the display contrast for PanelView 400 and 600 grayscale

terminals. Displays are shipped with the contrast level set at 50%, which is the

optimum setting.

TIP

The CCFL backlight temperature control takes precedence over the

application Backlight Settings.

Windows CE .NET Operating System

Chapter Objectives

This chapter applies only to PanelView Plus CE terminals and provides

information on these topics:

 Windows CE .NET architecture

 Windows CE .NET programs for PanelView Plus CE terminals

 Using Windows CE .NET operating system

 PanelView Plus CE terminal memory

 Control panel applications for configuring PanelView Plus CE terminals

Windows CE .NET Architecture

The Windows CE .NET operating system from Microsoft provides a portable,

scalable, real-time operating system for embedded devices. The modular design of

Windows CE .NET allows the platform builder to include only those features

required for the specific product application. However, the Windows CE .NET

operating system is still a subset of the other Microsoft operating systems, and it

runs Win32 applications.

Windows CE .NET Benefits

There are three major differences between the Windows CE .NET operating

system and other Microsoft Windows operating systems. The Windows CE

.NET operating system:

 has a small memory footprint requirement.

 runs on a wide variety of processor architectures.

 has a real-time scheduler.

The small memory footprint allows the Windows CE .NET operating system to

operate in small solid-state memory devices (8 MB typical). In contrast,

computers that run Windows operating systems require hundreds of megabytes

of storage space.

The PanelView Plus CE terminal has an x86-based processor to maximize the

consistency between Windows 2000/XP and Windows CE .NET applications.

112 Rockwell Automation Publication 2711P-UM001K-EN-P - February 2020

Chapter 5 Windows CE .NET Operating System

Compile Windows CE .NET Applications

While the Windows CE .NET operating system brings a higher level of

standardization to embedded computing devices, third-party software

applications must still be compiled and tested to run on each Windows CE .NET

device. The compilation is required to tailor the software application to the

device’s processor and unique hardware features.

Microsoft created hardware reference models for the handheld (HPC) and the

pocket (PPC) personal computer so that third-party applications can run on

these standard platforms. There are no hardware standards for embedded devices.

The PanelView Plus CE terminal is largely compatible with HPC and PPC, so

applications that are compiled for the x86 may run on the PanelView Plus CE

terminal.

Windows CE .NET Programs

The PanelView Plus CE terminal includes FactoryTalk View ME software. Refer

to the user manual and online help shipped with FactoryTalk View Studio

software for information about using this software.

The Windows CE .NET operating system and applications are stored on the

internal CompactFlash of the PanelView Plus CE terminal for permanent storage

and can be accessed as the \Storage Card directory in the Windows Explorer.

(They are also available on the PanelView Plus CE Accessory CD). The

operating system and FactoryTalk View ME software are loaded into RAM at

startup to improve response time.

Additional programs can be installed by using ActiveSync or an external

CompactFlash card on the PanelView Plus CE terminal.

The PanelView Plus CE terminal ships with the following programs preloaded.

Application Description

Microsoft Internet Explorer, version 5.5 Web browser

ActiveSync Support Connects the PanelView Plus CE terminal to a desktop

computer running ActiveSync software

Control Panel Set of configuration tools for setting up the PanelView Plus CE

terminal

Windows Explorer (Shell) User interface to the system much like a desktop computer

Remote Desktop Connection Services for thin client applications included on the PanelView

Plus CE Accessory CD (formerly Terminal Server Client)

WordPad Text editor

PDF Viewer Reader for Adobe Acrobat PDF files

Rockwell Automation Publication 2711P-UM001K-EN-P - February 2020 113

Windows CE .NET Operating System Chapter 5

Other Windows CE .NET programs are available.

Most of these programs have been written for PPC devices, and some may run on

the PanelView Plus CE terminals

. For more information on Windows CE .NET

programs, see the Knowledgebase at http://support.automation.rockwell.com

Install Applications

The PanelView Plus CE terminal allows field-installation of third-party software.

Refer to Chapter

8 for details on how to use Microsoft ActiveSync software to

install and remove application programs on the PanelView Plus CE terminal.

Each application program must be compiled for the x86 processor.

If the application program literature does not specifically identify the PanelView

Plus CE terminal as a compatible hardware platform, take caution if trying to

install and run it on the terminal. While the program may operate on the X86

processor, there could be conflicts with running it on the PanelView Plus CE

terminal. Testing is essential.

Windows CE .NET Operating

System

The Windows CE .NET operating system provides a user interface similar to

other Microsoft Windows operating systems. This user interface has been

simplified to reduce the memory footprint. Therefore, minor differences exist

between the desktop Windows interface and the Windows CE .NET interface.

The Windows CE .NET graphical interface simplifies interaction with the

computer. You simply select and move objects on the screen by tapping and

dragging them using your finger or stylus on the touch screen, or using an

external mouse.

The PanelView Plus CE terminal has a keypad, touch screen, or input panel for

operator input. In addition, an external keyboard or mouse can be connected to

one of the USB ports of the terminal.

TIP

If you have difficulty selecting objects using the touch screen, run the

calibration program.

Start Menu and Taskbar

Use the Start menu to run programs, configure settings, and open recently-used

documents. A single-click on the Start menu button on the bottom left of the

screen brings up the menu. Subsequent clicks select the program or item you

want to open. The key sequence Ctrl+Esc also activates the Start menu.

The taskbar across the bottom of the screen contains buttons for programs

already running, along with a status area and a Desktop icon. You can alternately

minimize and maximize an open application by clicking on its taskbar button.

Double-clicking on any icon in the status area shows more information about

that function. A single-click on the Show Desktop button (far right side of

taskbar) minimizes all open windows and displays the PanelView Plus CE

computer

desktop. You can close an application by clicking with the right mouse

button on its taskbar button and choosing Close.

Command Bar

A Windows CE.NET program has a command bar located across its top. This

command bar contains pull-down menu names and toolbar buttons for the

application.

Click on a menu name or toolbar icon to interact with the specific program. The

Help (?) button on the right side of the command bar provides

application-specific help. The Exit (X) button on the far right side of the

command bar exits the application.

Windows CE .NET command bar does not have a Minimize button. Click the

taskbar button to minimize a program window, or use the Show Desktop button

to minimize all open program windows.

Find Files

Select Start>Programs>Windows Explorer to locate files on the PanelView Plus

CE terminal

. You can alternately double-click the My Computer icon on the

Desktop to open the Windows Explorer program. The Windows Explorer web

browser lets you browse and manipulate the PanelView Plus CE files and folders.

The Edit menu lets you move files from one location to another by using the

116 Rockwell Automation Publication 2711P-UM001K-EN-P - February 2020

Chapter 5 Windows CE .NET Operating System

Copy or Cut and Paste commands. When you create and save a new file, it is

stored in the My Documents folder unless you specify another location.

Browse Web Pages

Select Start>Programs>Internet Explorer to view Web pages. You can alternately

double-click the Internet Explorer icon on the desktop to open the Internet

Explorer program. To access pages stored on the PanelView Plus CE terminal, use

the File>Open command and select the Browse button to locate the file. To view

Internet or intranet pages, type a URL in the Address box.

Before you can access remote Web pages, the PanelView Plus CE terminal must

be connected to a network. See the section on Network and Dialup Connections

for details on configuring the Ethernet interface. Additional network settings

such as a Proxy Server can be configured in the Internet Explorer application by

using the Options command under the View menu.

The Microsoft Internet Explorer application is similar to the personal computer

version. It offers many of the same features of the personal computer version, and

can be used to view most Internet HTML Web pages. Some advanced Web

features may not be fully supported.

Some PanelView Plus CE software applications may support printing. To print

from these applications, select the File>Print command. A PCL compatible

printer must be connected to the USB or Ethernet port on the PanelView Plus

CE terminal.

TIP

The PanelView Plus CE file system resides in RAM and flash memory. RAM is

volatile and is not persistent after a power cycle. Save files that must be

persistent to the\Storage Card Folder that resides on the internal

CompactFlash card.

Rockwell Automation Publication 2711P-UM001K-EN-P - February 2020 117

Windows CE .NET Operating System Chapter 5

PanelView Plus CE Memory

The PanelView Plus CE has the following memory areas:

 Boot ROM

 Internal CompactFlash

 Dynamic RAM

 External CompactFlash cards

 USB mass storage devices

Boot ROM

The boot ROM is used to start up the PanelView Plus CE terminal, perform

power on self tests, and load the Windows CE .NET operating system into

dynamic RAM. The boot ROM code is not user accessible.

Internal CompactFlash

The internal CompactFlash is the main storage memory in the PanelView Plus

CE terminal. The Windows CE .NET operating system and user applications are

stored in flash memory. On startup, the operating system and any auto-start

applications are transferred to dynamic RAM, where they are executed.

The remainder of the flash memory is a FAT partition that appears as a folder

named \Storage Card in Windows CE .NET. Files stored here are persistent

(saved even after a reset or power cycle).

WARNING

Only programs and files loaded in the \Storage Card folder are permanently

saved to flash memory. All other folders or files existing in RAM are lost

when power is cycled.

118 Rockwell Automation Publication 2711P-UM001K-EN-P - February 2020

Chapter 5 Windows CE .NET Operating System

Dynamic RAM

The RAM memory is split into two segments: Storage and Program memory.

The System application in the Control Panel has a slider control that determines

the allocation mix between Storage and Program memory.

The Storage memory segment is a virtual RAM disk known as the Object Store.

It provides specialized storage for the Windows CE .NET Registry, the file

system, and system databases. The RAM-based Storage memory segment is not

persistent as in HPC devices, so all files stored here must be recreated at every

startup.

The Program memory segment provides traditional computer RAM-like

functions for holding application code, heaps, stacks, and data at runtime. The

PanelView Plus CE terminal loads the Windows CE .NET operating system and

any auto-start applications from flash memory into the Program memory at

powerup.

External CompactFlash Cards

External CompactFlash cards are available for the PanelView Plus CE terminal to

increase the space for storing files. When a CompactFlash card is installed in the

card slot of the PanelView Plus CE terminal, a StorageCard2 icon is displayed

under My Computer, and files on the memory card can be manipulated by using

the Windows Explorer program.

The card slot on the PanelView Plus CE terminal supports Type 1 CompactFlash

cards. The cards (2711P-RCx) are available in different sizes.

For details on how to install/remove cards from the card slot, refer to page 162

USB Mass Storage Devices

USB devices that comply with the USB Mass Storage Class Specification, version

1.0, are supported to enable a wide variety of USB-based storage devices such as

hard drives, floppy disks, CD-ROM drives and ATA flash readers. Up to 10

devices are supported, concurrently. DVD drives are not supported.

All of the terminals have a CompactFlash card slot that supports

Type 1 CompactFlash cards that come in different memory sizes.

The orientation of the card slot on the 700 to 1500 terminals varies depending on

the series of the logic module.

Insert a CompactFlash Card

Insert the card in the CompactFlash card slot until firmly seated.

Remove a CompactFlash Card

Press the Eject button on the logic module. When the button pops out, press it

again to release the card. The location of the button varies depending on the

series of the logic module.

Chapter Objectives

This chapter provides network and device connections for the terminals.

 Wiring and safety guidelines

 Logic controller cable charts

 Communication port isolation

 USB ports

 Serial connections on base unit

 Ethernet (onboard communication)

 DH-485/DH+/RIO communication module

 ControlNet communication module

 DeviceNet communication module

Wiring and Safety Guidelines

Use publication NFPA 70E, Electrical Safety Requirements for Employee

Workplaces, IEC 60364 Electrical Installations in Buildings or other applicable

wiring safety requirements for the country of installation when wiring the

devices. In addition to the NFPA guidelines.

 Route communication cables to terminal by a separate path from incoming

power.

 Cross power and communication lines at right angles if they must cross.

Communication lines can be installed in the same conduit as low-level DC

I/O lines (less than 10V).

 Shield and ground cables appropriately to avoid electromagnetic

interference (EMI).

Grounding minimizes noise from EMI and is a safety measure in electrical

installations.

For more information on grounding recommendations, refer to the National

Electrical Code published by the National Fire Protection.

IMPORTANT

Do not run signal wiring and power wiring in the same

conduit.

Ethernet Cable

For PanelView Plus 700 to 1500 terminals, use Belden 7921A shielded Ethernet

Category 5e cable according to TIA 568-B.1 and RJ45 connector according to

IEC 60603-7 for compliance with Marine emissions limits and the European

Union 89/336/EEC EMC Directive.

The maximum cable length between the terminal’s Ethernet port and a 10/100

Base-T port on an Ethernet hub (without repeaters or fiber) is 100 m (328 ft).

Security Considerations

IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) is used for IPv4 multicast. A

multicast is communication between a single sender and multiple receivers on a

network. IGMP is used to exchange membership status data between IPv4

routers that support multicasting and members of multicast groups. A router is

an intermediary device on a communication network that expedites message

delivery by finding the most efficient route for a message packet within a

network, or by routing packets from one subnetwork to another. A sub-network

is a separate part of an organization’s network identified through IP addressing.

PanelView Plus terminals provide level 2 (full) support for IPv4 multicasting

(IGMP version 2) as described in RFC 1112 and RFC 2236.

SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is used for internal network

management and is not supported.

Ports 137 and 138 are normally open to support the NetBIOS protocol used by

Windows CE.NET similar to other Microsoft and IBM network operating

systems.

WARNING

Do not connect or disconnect any communication cable with power applied

to this device or any device on the network. An electrical arc could cause an

explosion in hazardous location installations. Be sure that power is

removed or the area is nonhazardous before proceeding.

DH-485/DH+/Remote I/O

Module

Terminals with a DH-485/DH+/Remote I/O communication module support

communication with these networks.

 DH+ networks

 DH-485 networks

 Remote I/O networks

You can communicate with only one network at one time.

The 700 to 1500 terminals support all protocols on one module. The 400 and

600 terminals require a separate module for each protocol. The DH+, DH-485,

and Remote I/O connections are different between the modules for the 400 and

600 and 700 to 1500 terminals.

Module Connections

IMPORTANT

See your controller documentation for appropriate controller connections.

IMPORTANT

When using the DH-485 module, catalog number 2711P-RN3, with

PanelView Plus 400 and 600 terminals, the cable length must not exceed 30

m (98 ft) to comply with CE requirements. For longer cable lengths, use the

Isolate the Problem

This section provides general troubleshooting information to assist you when

trying to isolate problems.

Check for Adequate Power

A terminal that does not receive adequate power could result in unpredictable

behavior. Refer to Appendix

A, Specifications, for power requirements.

Check Indicators at Startup

After a successful startup, both status indicators on the terminal are off and

controlled by the application running on the terminal.

When the terminal starts, the fault (red) indicator should be off except for a few

brief flashes, and the comm (green) indicator on.

 If the indicators on the 700 to 1500 terminals remain off, the power supply

or logic module has failed. Check the power cable. If the power is not

within range, replace the power supply. If the power is within range,

replace the logic module.

 Check the cable connections and quality of cable. Check for good

connections and things such as quality, crimping, hub connection, and

uplink ports.

 Check the IP Address of the Built-in Ethernet Controller. Enter

Configuration mode and select Terminal Settings>Networks and

Communications>Network Connections>Network Adapters. In

PanelView Plus CE, open the Network and Dial-up Connections control

panel application

If DHCP is enabled, the device expects a valid IP address to be acquired

within a several seconds after startup. The TCP/IP protocol automatically

assigns 169.254.nnn.nnn when it fails to acquire an IP address from the

server. In general, an IP address that begins with 169 will not support a

network connection.

A bad Ethernet connection and the absence of a valid IP address are

typically reported in a Communication error message box with the

Winsock critical error 10065 - No route to host.

 Check for conflicting IP addresses. If DHCP is not enabled, make sure

the IP address you specify is not in conflict with the address of another

device on the network.

 Check the device name of the terminal. Do not allow devices on the

network with same host name. Enter Configuration mode and select

Terminal Settings>Communications and Networks>Network

Connections>Device Name. In PanelView Plus CE, open the System

control panel application

 Contact your Network Administrator to check peer or server settings.

The other side of the Ethernet connection may also be a problem.

 Use the network utilities Ping.exe and Ipconfig.exe (CE Terminals

only)

 Check the requirements of network applications (CE Terminals only).

Network applications may have specific requirements such as Proxy

Settings for Internet Explorer and Ethernet Configuration for ActiveSync.

In PanelView Plus CE, open the Communications control panel

application.

 Check the multi-homed devices (CE terminals only). Multi-homed

(more than one Ethernet node) devices have the same issues as those above

but with more potential for confusion and ambiguity. Keep the Network

connections as simple as possible.

Chapter 9 Troubleshoot the System

Application Does Not Run

If the PanelView Plus application does not start, there may be a problem with the

.MER FactoryTalk View ME file. Check for a startup screen and compatible

version.

If a PanelView Plus application does not run on the terminal, there may be a

problem with the FactoryTalk View ME application. Verify that a startup screen

was configured and that the runtime file is a compatible version.

If a PanelView Plus CE application does not run at startup, try to run the

application manually. If the application runs manually, then the operating system

may be starting up with an invalid shortcut path. Check the shortcuts in the

folder:

\Storage Card\Windows\StartUp

Check the syntax of each shortcut path in the Startup folder and verify that a

valid target application exists.

Check that the application is not missing components or required DLLs.

Remove and reload the application.

Configuration Mode Access

To access Configuration mode while an application is running, your

FactoryTalk View ME application must contain a screen with a Goto

Configure Mode button. When the application is running, you can

press this button to access Configuration mode.

If a running application does not contain a Goto Configure Mode

button, you can access configuration mode during startup.

1. Restart the terminal.

The terminal goes through its startup sequence and will display a white

box in the lower left corner of the display.

2. On touch screen terminals, press the white box.

On keypad terminals, press the F1 key.

The terminal enters Configuration Mode.

File System Errors

The file system on PanelView Plus CE terminals is checked at startup and errors

are reported in a message box. Record the error information and always elect to

correct the problem. Typically, the message box will reappear until the error is

corrected.

TIP

If the terminal is configured to enter Configuration mode at startup and

does not, then reload the firmware.

Rockwell Automation Publication 2711P-UM001K-EN-P - February 2020 217

Troubleshoot the System Chapter 9

File system errors are rare and can usually be corrected. The most common cause

of lost clusters and file/directory size mismatches within a FAT file system is an

unexpected power outage while writing to the file system. Always stop

applications before removing power so that data is cleanly flushed out to the file

system and the file system is brought to an orderly stop.

Although the FactoryTalk View ME application runs from RAM, applications

such as data and event logging, and historical trending, write to flash memory

and should be stopped before removing power.

Advanced Diagnostics for CE

Terminals

Ping and ipconfig are invaluable for network debugging along with some

knowledge of IP and the Winsock error codes.

 Try to ping the destination host.

 Check the destination address.

 Check whether you have a router configured in your network system (your

WinSock implementation).

 Use the tracert command at the command prompt on the desktop to try

and determine where the failure occurs along the route between your host

and the destination host.

 Some utility programs are distributed on the Accessories CD. Others can

be developed using the software development kit (SDK).

 Take advantage of alternate connectivity - mouse versus touch screen,

keyboard versus keypad, serial communication, and alternate Ethernet

connections.

 Enable the crash logger and examine the EXCEPTIONS.LOG file from

the PanelView Plus CE terminal when suspecting an operating system or

application crash.

 Store the current operating system on an external CompactFlash card. You

can then use this card to update the terminal in case the operating system is

out-of-date or corrupted.

 Store Autorun.exe utilities on an external CompactFlash card that can be

easily run by inserting the card in the external CompactFlash card slot of

the terminal.

 Know useful keyboard shortcuts so that you can navigate around the

system without a mouse or touch screen.

 Check the event log in the Hardware Monitor control panel application or

under Terminal Settings>System Event Log in Configuration mode. Look

for error conditions or reasons for unexpected reboots.

 Check the configuration settings in the PanelView Plus CE control panel

applications or terminal Configuration mode.

System Identification Errors

The error messages in this section appear on startup if incorrect or invalid

components are used with the 700 to 1500 terminals.

 This dialog appears if a PanelView Plus CE logic module is attached to a

PanelView display module. We recommend that you use a PanelView Plus

CE display module with a PanelView Plus CE logic module. This is a

warning letting you continue to operate.

 This dialog appears if the PanelView Plus logic module contains a

2711P-RWx internal CompactFlash card for the PanelView Plus CE

terminal.

After pressing OK, you will be asked to power off the terminal and insert a

valid 2711P-RWx internal CompactFlash card for the PanelView Plus

terminal.

 This dialog appears if the PanelView Plus CE logic module contains a

2711P-RWx internal CompactFlash card for the PanelView Plus terminal.

After clicking OK, you will be asked to power off the terminal and insert a

valid 2711P-RWx internal CompactFlash card for the PanelView Plus CE

terminal.

 This dialog appears if the internal CompactFlash in the PanelView Plus

logic module is corrupt. This is a fatal error.

After clicking OK, you will be asked to power off the terminal and insert a

valid 2711P-RWx internal CompactFlash card.

Troubleshoot the System Chapter 9

Restart in Safe Mode

On PanelView Plus CE terminals, use the default switch with the reset switch to

start the terminal in Safe mode. This diagnostic mode reduces the system to a

known state that permits recovery from a software problem. Safe mode ignores all

user changes to the system and avoids any problems that are due to interactions

with end-user software or changes. Once the system is running in Safe mode, you

can repair the offending applications or changes that caused the problem.

When the PanelView Plus CE terminal is restarted in Safe mode, the following

occurs:

 The Persistent Registry is ignored and the Default Registry is used. The

Persistent Registry is restored at the next reboot unless the Default

Registry is saved (flushed), in which case it becomes the new Persistent

Registry.

 The \Windows\Startup folder is ignored, inhibiting most startup actions.

All user applications that launch automatically at startup are shortcuts in

the \Startup folder.

 Depending on the state of the system, the touch screen may be calibrated

at startup.

 All custom key configurations (mappings) generated by the Keypad

Configuration Utility (KCU) are ignored.

220 Rockwell Automation Publication 2711P-UM001K-EN-P - February 2020

Chapter 9 Troubleshoot the System

The switches that control safe mode are on the right side of the logic module

above the CompactFlash card slot.

Follow these steps to restart in Safe mode.

1. Insert a thin probe into the hole marked default and press the switch.

2. Insert the probe into the hole marked reset and press the switch.

The system will restart immediately into the Safe mode.

If you restart the PanelView Plus terminal in safe mode:

1. The default operating system registry is loaded.

2. The operating system boots but FactoryTalk View ME software is not

started.

3. The operating system displays the ME may be corrupt diagnostic screen.

Disregard this message. FactoryTalk View ME software is not corrupt; it

has not been loaded on this boot cycle.

4. The next time you reset or power up the terminal, the system will start

normally and run FactoryTalk View ME software.

TIP

Safe mode indicates that the terminal passes all startup self tests and can

successfully launch the operating system. Safe mode is not a diagnostic

function for the FactoryTalk View ME application.

Security Considerations

Ports 137 and 138 are normally open to support the NetBIOS protocol used by

Windows CE.NET similar to other Microsoft and IBM network operating

systems.

Port 80 is open when the Web server is optionally installed from the PanelView

Plus extensions. Otherwise, Port 80 is normally closed.

The FTP server permits a remote computer to run arbitrary commands and

read/write files. The FTP server is optionally installed from the VersaView

extensions. Otherwise, there is no FTP server on the system.

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is not supported.

Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) is used for IPv4 multicast. A

multicast is communication between a single sender and multiple receivers on a

network. IGMP is used to exchange membership status data between IPv4

routers that support multicasting and members of multicast groups. A router is

an intermediary device on a communication network that expedites message

delivery by finding the most efficient route for a message packet within a

network, or by routing packets from one subnetwork to another. A subnetwork is

a separate part of an organization’s network identified through IP addressing.

PanelView Plus CE terminals provide level 2 (full) support for IPv4 multicasting

(IGMP version 2) as described in RFC 1112 and RFC 2236.

Security requires a comprehensive application of policies and technology, and an

awareness of security needs and potential vulnerabilities. You may also want to

consult with Rockwell GMS Network Services for additional assistance.
