PC Naming Rules
The base name cannot contain more than 13 alphanumeric
characters and must contain no spaces. The full computer
name cannot contain more than 14 alphanumeric
characters. The following naming conventions are required
for given ProcessLogix system architectures.
For non-redundant Server, be sure the name does not end
in the letter “A” or “B”. The default name is PLX1.
For redundant Servers, append a letter to the base name to
identify the PC’s function in the system architecture
beginning with the letters A and B for the primary and
secondary Servers, respectively. For example, use the name
PLX1A for the primary Server (SERVERA) and PLX1B
for the secondary Server (SERVERB). (14 Character total:
Up to 13 Base plus A or B)
For a ProcessLogix Client, be sure the name does not end
in the letter “A” or “B”. The suggested name is STNxx,
where xx is the Station Number (01-20).
IMPORTANT
Be sure to document the Administrator Password. (It is
required later in the procedure.) The Administrator
Account and password gives a user full access to the
system. Care should be taken to who has access to this
information.
TIP
In the next section, you have the ability to add many
services and options during the Server installation. These
components are not required for the base operation of the
ProcessLogix R500.1 Software. If any of these
components are needed for a custom installation, they can
be added later after the installation.
