EC9700
The EC9700 is a control GUI
—
a software application that emulates an NV9601 hardware panel
and that runs on a PC. (It was designed to provide the same functions as the NV9601, even
though it does not resemble the NV9601.)
Because it is software that runs on your PC, the EC9700 must be installed on your PC. (See
on page 187 for installation instructions.) And because it runs on your PC, the
NV9000 system must be able to communicate with your PC. Therefore, when you configure the
EC9700 (and the EC9710) you must provide the computer name of the PC on which the software
will run. (You can find the computer name of a PC by right-clicking the computer icon for the PC
and choosing the ‘Properties’ command from the context menu that appears.)
You must create a separate EC9700 configuration for every PC that will run the EC9700 GUI.
The ‘EC9700/EC9710’ Page
The ‘EC9700/EC9710’ configuration page lists the software control panels defined in your
configuration. At the bottom of this page are buttons that allow you to add and delete software
control panels.
See
on page 209 for details.
The ‘Add SW Panel’ Page
The ‘Add SW Panel’ page is the page in which you start the addition of a software control panel.
It is in this page that you specify the computer name of the PC on which the panel is to execute.
See
on page 211 for details.
