Hi all,
Recently I upgraded a PVP6 from version 7.0 to version 9.0 since I needed it to communicate with a 5069 CompactLogix Controller (L320ERM V30). I am still developing my app with FTView 7.0 because this is the latest version I have. By the way, now they communicate but not fully. The PVP6 accesses variables like Loca:1:I.Pt00.Data but opposite to the PV5500 it does not access variables like Loca:1:I.Pt00.@Description
Now the weird thing: The last time I downloaded an app to the PVP6 it stopped communicating. Then I examined the PVP6 and it was showing the desktop and no app was running. I managed to get into the terminal configuration and found that the device’s name and IP address had changed. I introduced the name and address back, checked that the desktop access was selected to not-allowed, downloaded my application again and now the application runs, the PVP6 communicates but it still shows the desktop. I hided the task bar but every time I reset the terminal it still shows the desktop prior to run the app.
I haven’t put much effort on this yet but ideas will be appreciated.
Thank you, Bye
