Application Information

Per the National Electrical Code, the circuit parameters of associated

field wired apparatus for use in hazardous locations shall be
coordinated with the host product such that their combination
remains nonincendive. The PanelView Plus 400/600 and the USB
peripheral device shall be treated in this manner.

The circuit parameters of the PanelView Plus 400/600 USB port are
give in Table 1. The USB peripheral device and its associated cabling
shall have circuit parameters with the limits given in Table 2 for them
to remain incendive when used with the PanelView Plus 400/600 USB
port. If cable compliance and inductance are not known, use the
following values from UL 913:

Ccable = 60 pF/ft
Lcable = 0.20 µH/ft

Environmental The PanelView Plus terminals are suitable for use in an industrial
environment when installed in accordance with these instructions.
Considerations Specifically, this equipment is intended for use in clean, dry
environments (Pollution Degree 2(1) and with circuits not exceeding
Over Voltage Category II(2) (IEC 60664-1).(3)
(1) Pollution Degree 2 is an environment where, normally only non-conductive pollution occurs except that
occasionally a temporary conductivity caused by condensation shall be expected.

(2) Over Voltage Category II is the load level section of the electrical distribution system. At this level transient
voltages are controlled and do not exceed the impulse voltage capability of the product’s insulation.

(3) Pollution Degree 2 and Over Voltage Category II are International Electrotechnical Commissions (IEC)
designations.

Enclosures The terminals must be mounted in a panel or enclosure to protect the

internal circuitry. The terminals meet IP54, IP65 and NEMA Type
12/13 and 4X (indoor) ratings only when mounted in a panel or
enclosure with the equivalent rating. When the terminal is not
mounted in a panel, it is not secure or safe for operation. You must
comply with NEMA Type 4X (indoor) requirements for environmental
specifications.

Publication 2711P-UM001B-EN-P
2-4 Installation

Clearances You must allow adequate clearances around the terminal, inside the
enclosure, for adequate ventilation. Consider heat produced by other
devices in the enclosure. The ambient temperature around the
terminals must be between 0…55 °C (32…131 ºF).

Wiring and Safety Use publication NFPA 70E, Electrical Safety Requirements for
Employee Workplaces when wiring the PanelView Plus terminals. In
Guidelines addition to the NFPA guidelines:
• connect the terminal and other similar electronic equipment to
its own branch circuit.
• protect the input power by a fuse or circuit breaker rated at no
more than 15 Amps.
• route incoming power to the terminal by a separate path from
the communication lines.
• where power and communication lines must cross, they should
cross at right [Link] lines can be installed in the
same conduit as low level DC I/O lines (less than 10 volts).
• shield and ground cables appropriately to avoid Electromagnetic
Interference (EMI). Grounding minimizes noise from EMI and is
a safety measure in electrical installations.
For additional grounding recommendations, refer to the National
Electrical Code published by the National Fire Protection Association
of Boston.

Chapter Objectives This chapter provides network and device connections for the
PanelView Plus terminals, including:
• wiring and safety guidelines
• Logic controller cable charts
• USB port(s)
• Serial connections on base unit
• Ethernet (onboard communications)
• DH485/DH+/RIO Communications Module
(one module for 700-1500 terminals; separate module with each

• ControlNet Communications Module (700 - 1500 only)

Wiring and Safety Use publication NFPA 70E, Electrical Safety Requirements for
Employee Workplaces when wiring the PanelView Plus terminals. In
Guidelines addition to the NFPA general guidelines:
• route communication cables to terminal by a separate path from
incoming power:

IMPORTANT Do not run signal wiring and power wiring

in the same conduit.

• where power and communication lines must cross, they should

cross at right angles. Communication lines can be installed in the
same conduit as low level DC I/O lines (less than 10 volts).
• shield and ground cables appropriately to avoid Electromagnetic
Interference (EMI).Grounding minimizes noise from EMI and is
a safety measure in electrical installations.
• use the National Electric Code published by the National Fire
Protection Association as a source for grounding.

Ethernet Connections The base configured unit of the PanelView Plus 700 - 1500 terminals
and the network based unit of the 400 - 600 terminals have an
Ethernet port that supports:
• EtherNet/IP communications
• third party Ethernet communications
• network connections
• application uploads/downloads
• printing

Ethernet Connector

The base configured units of the PanelView Plus terminals have an

RJ45, 10/100Base-T connector for EtherNet/IP or Ethernet TCP/IP
network communications.

Use point-to-point, 10/100Base-T cables with cross over pin-outs

(such as 2711P-CBL-EX04) when connecting the Ethernet port on the
PanelView Plus directly to a logic controller’s Ethernet port or a
computer 10/100Base-T port. Use standard Ethernet cables when
connecting to a switch or hub.

Publication 2711P-UM001B-EN-P
6-10 Terminal Connections

Cables

Category 5 shielded and unshielded twisted-pair cables with RJ45

connectors are supported. If 100 Mbit/second data rates are used, we
recommend that you use a shielded cable. The shielded cable will
help insure that industrial noise immunity levels are maintained. The
maximum cable length between the terminal’s Ethernet port and a
10/100Base-T port on an Ethernet hub (without repeaters or fiber) is
100 meters (328 feet). In industrial applications, keep the cable length
to a minimum.

WARNING If you connect or disconnect the Ethernet cable with

power applied to the PanelView Plus or any device
on the network, an electrical arc can occur. This

! could cause an explosion in hazardous location

installations. Be sure that power is removed or the
area is nonhazardous before proceeding.

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 sub-network
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.

Note: 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 [Link] similar to other Microsoft and IBM network
operating systems.

General Troubleshooting This section provides a list of general troubleshooting steps to follow
when trying to isolate problems.
• Check for adequate power. An under-powered unit could
result in unpredictable behavior.
– The 400-600 DC powered terminals require 24V dc at 1.0 A
– The 400-600 AC powered terminals require 85…264V ac.
– The 700-1500 DC powered terminals require 24V dc at 1.5 A
– The AC Power Supply (2711P-RSACDIN) for 700-1500
terminals meets Class 2/SELV requirements.
• Check LED indicators on the terminal. Is power on? Is the
unit attempting to start? The red LED should be Off, except for a
few brief flashes, and the green LED should be On.
– If the LEDs remain Off on the 700-1500 terminals, the power
supply or Logic Module has failed. Check the power cable.
Replace the Logic Module if the power is within range; if not,
replace the power supply.
– If the LEDs remain off on the 400-600 terminals, check the
power cable.
If the terminal powers up and stops during startup, the state of
the LEDs indicate the following:
Blinking red LED indicates a recoverable error.
Red LED Green LED Description
Blinking Off Last firmware download failed. Repeat
firmware download.
Blinking Blinking EBC boot loader firmware failed or is

 Troubleshooting and Maintenance 8-3

• Check messages at startup for errors. Record any error

message and refer to the System Error Message table on page
8-10 for troubleshooting.
• Check voltages and temperatures (700-1500 only). From
Configuration Mode, open Terminal Settings>System
Information>Terminal Information.
– Battery Voltage for 700-1500 terminals should be at least 2.75
V. Replace the battery if less than 2.75 V.
– Display Temperatures should be less than 55 °C. The CPU
temperature should be less than 95 °C.
If the temperatures are higher, check for obstructed airflow
through the chassis and attempt to moderate the ambient
temperatures within the enclosure and surroundings.

• Check System Event Log for errors or unexpected reboots.

From Configuration Mode, open Terminal Settings>System Event
Log.
• Use Extended Diagnostics on 700-1500 terminals only to
perform more extensive hardware testing at startup. From
Configuration Mode, open Terminal Settings>Startup
Tests>Select Tests.

Select one or more of the tests you want to run. Enable

extended diagnostics and set the iteration or repeat count.
Restart the PanelView Plus terminal. The Serial Port test requires
a loopback connector with the following connections.

Troubleshooting This section provides tips on how to isolate problems with individual
components of the PanelView Plus terminal, including the display,
Components touch screen, keypad, attached keyboard or mouse.

Display Problems

This section provides tips on how to isolate problems with the

Display.
• Check the brightness setting of the Display. Is the display
brightness dim or unreadable?
From Configuration Mode, open Terminal Settings>Display
Intensity.
• Check the contrast setting of Display for 400-600 grayscale
displays. From Configuration Mode, open Terminal
Settings>Display Contrast.
• Check the Screen Saver settings. Is the backlight turning off
or dimming the display unexpectedly.
From Configuration Mode, open Terminal
Settings>Display>Screen Saver.

• Check the LED indicators. Do they flash during startup? Is

power on and is the unit attempting to start?
• Check the Display temperature (700-1500 only). From
Configuration Mode, open the Terminal
Settings>Display>Display Temperature screen. Poor contrast and
slow screen updates will occur if the Display is too cold or too
hot.
• Check the startup messages. Is the Display operating at all
and do the startup messages appear? Record any error message
and use the System Error Message table on page 8-10 for
troubleshooting.
• Replace the Display Module if all other attempts do not
resolve problem (700-1500 only). If replacing the Display
Module corrects the problem, then the Display was not
functioning properly.

Publication 2711P-UM001B-EN-P
 Troubleshooting and Maintenance 8-5

Touch Screen Problems

This section provides tips on how to isolate problems with the Touch
Screen.
• Check the catalog number of the unit. Verify that your
terminal has a touch screen by looking at the label on the
terminal.
• Perform a calibration of the touch screen. From
Configuration Mode, open Terminal Settings>Input
Devices>Touch Screen>Calibration. Follow the directions.
The calibration requires 5 user screen touches. When the
touches do not converge to a satisfactory calibration, you are
asked repeatedly for additional screen touches and the
calibration process never terminates. A touch screen that does
not calibrate is not present or not functioning properly. Replace
the Display Module (700-1500) or the terminal (400-600).
• Check the Cursor Enable setting for the touch screen. Is
the cursor visible? From Configuration Mode, open Terminal
Settings>Input Devices>Touch Screen>Cursor.
• Check the pointer input by attaching a USB mouse. If the
mouse works, but the touch screen does not, then the touch
driver or touch screen is not functioning properly. If both the
mouse and the touch screen are not working, then it is an
application problem.
• Does touching or dragging on the screen appear to work?
If yes, even if incorrectly, the touch screen is present and
working but requires calibration.
• Replace Bezel or Display Module if all other attempts do
not resolve the problem (700-1500 only). If replacing the
Display Module or bezel corrects the problem, then the touch
screen was not functioning properly.

Keypad:
• Check Multi-Key/Hold-Off settings. From Configuration
Mode, open Terminal Settings>Keypad>Keypad Settings.
Is the Hold-Off Delay longer than expected, or are multiple key
presses inhibited by Multi-Key Lockout? Check all configurable
settings.
Home, End, Page Up or Page Down are not supported when
Multi-Key Lockout is enabled.
• Check key input by attaching a USB keyboard. If the
keyboard works, but the keypad does not, then the keypad
driver or keypad is not working. If both the keypad and
keyboard are not working, then the problem may be the
application.
• Replace the Display Module if all other attempts do not
resolve problem. If replacing the Display Module corrects the
problem, then the keypad was not functioning properly.

Problems with Attached Mouse

This section provides tips on how to isolate problems with an

attached Mouse.
• Check the Cursor Enable setting. Is the cursor visible? From
Configuration Mode, open Terminal Settings>Input
Devices>Touch Screen>Cursor. Also check mouse settings.
• Check the USB cable and connection. Detach and then
re-attach the mouse. Cycle power to the terminal.
• Is the mouse a USB composite device? If the mouse is a
keyboard/mouse composite device, then try a stand-alone USB
mouse.
• Replace the USB mouse. Try a different model or
manufacturer. See Appendix B for a list of compatible mouse
devices. You can also check the Knowledgebase at the
[Link] site for a list of USB
devices that are compatible with the PanelView Plus terminal. If
attaching a new mouse resolves the problem, then the old
mouse was not working or non-compliant.

Problems with Attached Keyboard

This section provides tips on how to isolate problems with the

Keyboard.
• Check for enabled Alt-Ctrl keys. From Configuration Mode,
open Terminal Settings>Input Devices>Keyboard>Keyboard
Settings.
Are the keys enabled as expected? Check all configurable
settings in Keyboard Properties.
• If keypad is present, check input using the keypad. If the
keypad works, but the keyboard does not, then the keyboard
driver or keyboard is probably not working. If both the keypad
and the keyboard are not working, then it is probably an
application problem.
• Check the USB cable and connector. Detach and re-attach the
keyboard. Insure a good connection. Cycle power to the
terminal.
• Is the keyboard a USB composite device? If the keyboard is
a keyboard/mouse composite device, then try a stand-alone USB
keyboard.
• Replace the USB keyboard. Try a different model or
manufacturer. See Appendix B for a list of compatible
keyboards. You can also check the Knowledgebase at the
[Link] site for a list of USB
devices that are compatible with the PanelView Plus terminal. If
a new keyboard resolves the problem, then the old keyboard
was probably non-compliant.

8-8 Troubleshooting and Maintenance

Ethernet Problems • Check LED indicators at the Ethernet connector. The green
LED indicates a communications link and should be ON. The
amber LED indicates data activity and should be flashing. Verify
that there is a connection to the hub?
• Check cable connections and quality of cable. Check for
good connections and things such as quality, crimping, hub
connection, and uplink ports.
• Check IP Address of the Built-In Ethernet Controller. From
Configuration Mode, select Terminal Settings>Networks and
Communications>Network Connections>Network Adaptors.
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 [Link] 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 Communications 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 PanelView Plus terminal. Do
not allow devices on the network with same (host) name. From
Configuration Mode, open Terminal Settings>Communications
and Networks>Network Connections>Device Name.
• Contact your Network Administrator to check peer or
server settings. The “other side” of the Ethernet connection
may also be a problem.

Publication 2711P-UM001B-EN-P
 Troubleshooting and Maintenance 8-9

Advanced Troubleshooting 1. Take advantage of alternate connectivity - mouse versus touch

screen, keyboard versus keypad, serial communications, and
alternate Ethernet connections.

2. Know useful keyboard shortcuts so that you can navigate

around the system without a mouse or touch screen.

3. From Configuration Mode, select Terminal Settings>System

Event Log to check the event log. Look for error conditions or
reasons for unexpected reboots.

4. Check the configuration settings in Configuration Mode for

incorrect settings.

5. Most importantly, general troubleshooting thoroughness means

getting answers to questions such as:
• Does the failure always happen? Is it repeatable?
• Does the failure happen at bootup or some other time? Is
there a set of actions that reveal the problem?
• Does the failure occur on just one terminal or on multiple
machines? If more than one machine, what do they have in
common? If not all machines, then what is different between
machines that fail and those that don’t?
• What appears on the screen, the LED indicators?
• Lastly, and most important; did everything work until
recently? If so, what changed?

8-14 Troubleshooting and Maintenance

Startup Problems If the PanelView Plus terminal is configured to enter Configuration

Mode at startup and does not, then reload the firmware. See page 7-1
for details.

If the application does not start, there may be a problem with the .mer
RSView Machine Edition file. Check for a startup screen and
compatible version.

Restarting in Safe Mode Safe Mode is a diagnostics mode where the terminal is reduced to a
known state that permits recovery from a configuration or application
700-1500 only
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 terminal is restarted in Safe Mode, the

following occurs:
• The last configuration or the default configuration is used. The
last configuration is restored at the next reboot unless the
default configuration is saved (flushed), in which case it
becomes the new Persistent Registry.
• Depending on the state of the system, the touch screen may be
calibrated at startup.

To restart in Safe Mode:

The switches that control Safe Mode are located on the right side of
the Logic Module above the Compact Flash card slot.
• Insert a thin probe into the hole marked DEFAULT and press the
switch, then;
• Insert the probe into the hole marked RESET and press the
switch. The system will restart immediately into the Safe Mode
