4PPC70 mappView

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

Thank you.

Hello @c457930 ,

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.

Best regards
Fabian
