As shown in the previous illustration, the FactoryTalk ViewPoint Server software for
a Machine Edition web application is installed on a PanelView
™
Plus or PanelView
Plus 6 operator terminal. New operator terminals contain the firmware with
FactoryTalk ViewPoint Machine Edition. Operator terminals that contain previously
installed software can be updated by upgrading the firmware on the terminal. For
more information on upgrading PanelView Plus firmware, see the PanelView Plus
Terminals User Manual, Chapter 8, “Upgrade Firmware.”
The FactoryTalk ViewPoint Administration software, used to convert displays and
set up security, is installed as part of FactoryTalk ViewPoint Machine Edition on the

To learn how to convert displays and then include them in the Machine Edition
runtime web application that will be downloaded to the operator terminal, see the
next section, “Creating a new Machine Edition web application.”
To learn how to set up security, click Help.
To learn how to install FactoryTalk ViewPoint Machine Edition, see “Installing
FactoryTalk ViewPoint”.
