Configure PVc Terminal-to-Controller Communication

The PanelView Component (PVc) terminal communicates with the MicroLogix 1400 controller over an

Ethernet network. The PVc application reads from and writes to the data table of the MicroLogix 1400

controller. When the PVc application writes to the MicroLogix 1400 controller, the controller program

detects the value change and interacts with the Ultra1500 drive appropriately via discrete I/O. Since the

controller program is continually updating status data from all of the Ultra1500 drives into its data table via

discrete I/O, the PVc application is monitoring the latest drive status data.

The sample Simple Motion Control Connected Component Building Block programs for the controller and

PVc terminal assumes the static IP address for the MicroLogix 1400 controller is 192.168.1.2. If you are using

a different IP address for the controller, you must modify the MicroLogix 1400 IP address in the PVc

application.

Follow this procedure if you need to modify the MicroLogix 1400 IP address in the PVc application.

1. Connect to the PVc terminal with your Internet Explorer or Firefox web browser by entering the

terminal IP address in the web browser location bar and pressing Enter.

2. Select the application name in the PVc dashboard dialog box and then click Edit.
