Preface
This quick start provides examples and procedures for including a PanelView
Plus terminal in a
Logix5000
control system over an EtherNet/IP network. The programming examples are not
complex, and offer easy solutions to verify that devices are functioning and communicating
properly.
Before Using This Publication
You can only use the tasks described in this publication after first completing some prerequisite
tasks with a Logix5000 controller. For example, before you can add a PanelView Plus terminal to
an RSLogix
5000 project, as described on
, you must first create the project in a
Logix5000 controller.

IMPORTANT
This publication describes basic example tasks you can complete when using a PanelView Plus terminal on an
EtherNet/IP network. The tasks described are not the only tasks you can complete with the terminal on an EtherNet/IP
network.
IMPORTANT
The example graphics shown in
Table 1 - Required Tasks To Complete Before Using This Quick Start on page 6
are for
