PanelBuilder Problems

Artisan Technology Group - Quality Instrumentation ... Guaranteed | (888) 88-SOURCE | www.artisantg.com
Probable causes
PLC controller in program mode, or PanelView
1200 terminal in configuration mode.
The Pass Through block transfer assignment in
the PanelView 1200 terminal doesn't match the
Pass Through block transfer assignment in the
application file being downloaded.
Remote I/O cables are disconnected.
Noisy line.
The computer's address is the same as the PLC
station address, when using a KT or KT2 device.
Programming terminal is not connected to Data
Highway Plus network.
Wrong KT2 driver card location. The switch
settings on the KT2 card don't match the
settings entered in the Pass Through download
configuration.
Trying to download through a PLC 5/40 where
the PanelView 1200 terminal is assigned a rack
number greater than 7.
The switch settings on the KT card don't match
the settings entered in the Pass Through
download configuration.
A rack was configured in the PanelBuilder
application that is not an actual PanelView
terminal rack.
Screen objects have addresses assigned to the
Pass Through block transfer file.
The PLC controller or the PanelView 1200
terminal don't have an 82 ohm resistor when
running at 230K baud on Remote I/O.
The Pass Through block transfer file in the
PanelBuilder application is also being used on a
BTR or BTW instruction in the PLC controller.
PanelView 1200 rack assignment is greater than
7.
The KT card bit pattern doesn't match the
jumper setting on the KT card.
For help on solving PanelBuilder software problems, see your
PanelBuilder Development Software User Manual or your PanelBuilder
1200 Configuration Software for Windows User Manual.
Appendix B
Troubleshooting
What to do
Put the PLC controller and the PanelView 1200
terminal in run mode.
Match the address assignments.
Ensure that both ends of the Remote I/O cables
are connected and terminated according to the
baud rate used.
Reassign the KT or KT2 address.
Connect programming terminal to Data Highway
Plus network.
Ensure that the settings on the KT2 card match
those entered in the Pass Through download
configuration.
Use PanelBuilder software 4.00.02 or higher.
Ensure that the settings on the KT card match
those entered in the Pass Through download
configuration. See the following table for
information on selecting a memory location for
the KT card.
Reassign the correct terminal rack using
PanelBuilder software.
Assign a different address to the Pass Through
block transfer file, or assign different addresses
to the screen objects.
Install 82 ohm resistor.
Assign a unique address to the Pass Through
block transfer file.
Use PanelBuilder software 4.00.02 or higher.
Ensure that the settings on the KT card match
those entered in the Pass Through download
configuration. See the following table for
information on selecting a memory location for
the KT card.
