Hi, I’m new to mappView I’ve always used VC4 visualization and I’m trying to show a mappView HMI on the 4PPC70’s display, is that possible? I can show the mappView HMI on a web browse on my PC, tried to to configure a VC4 with a HTMLView with http://localhost:81/index.html as DefaultURLs but didn’t show up.
I’m using:
4PPC70.0573-20W fimware 1.6.1.0
AS 4.12
mappView 5.24.2
the 4PPC70 is a VC4 only target. It does not have the possibilities to display a mappView visualization.
For showing a mappView visualization you need a panel of the T-Series 4PPT50, 4PPT80 or if you want to have a similar device like the C70 (Display and Controller in one housing), you should head for 4PPC80 or 4PPC50.
To be sure about a panel head to the B&R webpage and check the technical data for the panel (e.g. T80). Search for “mappView”.
As you already mentioned, you can use the C70 as the server for a mappView visualization but need additional hardware to to show it.
The workaround with the HTMLView could work in some cases but this control is not intended for mappView.
