Since you are using a discontinued terminal you will get many of these warnings. You can ignore the warning about 9.0 or earlier. As for the remaining three they are due to copy from design to runtime button. Refer to TN IN36740 - Too many devices in the Runtime Target tab can affect PanelView ...

There is no auditing on the PV5000 terminals running View Designer. If you need auditing then you would have to use a FactoryTalk View SE product that can run the newer PAx v5.x libraries. This would mean you would have to buy a new PC and additional licensing as SE cannot run on a PV5000 terminal. Audits ...

No it won't be possible. Those Alarm Summary and Manager objects are one single object. There is not a way to extract out the operator buttons for alarm interaction and also there is not a way to bind an external connection to those buttons. To use these objects natively you would need recreate your ...

You can try installing the latest version of Studio 5000 v37 and see if it fixes any of your AOP issues. However, note that if you are not using the HMIBC instruction or HMIBC buttons in your View Designer application, then there is no need to add a PanelView 5000 in the I/O tree. By default the PanelView ...

If you have lost the password to a PanelView Plus 6/7 terminal and are locked out, the only solution would be to do a factory default on it. This will wipe the PVP back to out of box condition. Make sure you have your .MER file backed up before you do. Also record the IP settings as these will need to ...

Could be related to how you have added the I/O modules in the I/O tree, i.e. Input Data vs Data on the I/O modules. Or the way the Ethernet Adapter was added to the I/O tree; i.e. Rack Optimized vs None. Also make sure you are using the latest 5.04 I/O devices libraries. Take a look in the https://l ...

Hello Steven, Issue 1: The YouTube video for the HMIBC Button/Instruction is correct. This is a special instruction on the PV5000 terminals that allow it to give a Class 1 I/O connection. You add the PV5000 in the I/O tree and it has an RPI just like a read I/O connection. The PLC makes ...

This is not possible with the datalogging on the PanelView 800. The datalogging is only meant for recording analog tag values from the Trend object.

I am not sure what the question or issue is? If you search the View Designer Help files for "How are expressions evaluated?" and "Expression examples", this should get you going.
