PanelView Explorer
PanelView Explorer is the browser interface for interacting with PanelView 800
terminals. Through this interface you can configure the terminal settings, transfer
files, test and run applications. See Configuration Interfaces
on page 17 for more
information on using PanelView Explorer.
Peripheral Connection
PanelView 800 terminals have a USB host port. You can power USB peripherals
directly from the PanelView 800 terminal. If the USB peripheral is not powered
directly from the PanelView USB port either:
• install the USB peripheral in the same enclosure as the PanelView terminal
and make sure it is connected to the same ground system.
• connect to the USB peripheral through a galvanically isolated hub.
The PanelView Explorer feature is only supported on PanelView 800
terminals with firmware revision 2.020 or earlier. It is not supported
from firmware revision 3.011 onwards.
WARNING: If you connect or disconnect the communications cable
with power applied to this module or any device on the network, an
electrical arc can occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous
location installations.
Be sure that power is removed or the area is nonhazardous before
proceeding.
WARNING: If you connect or disconnect the USB cable with power

arc can occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous location
installations.
Be sure that power is removed or the area is nonhazardous before
proceeding.
ATTENTION: Removing the USB flash drive or micro-SD card, from the
PanelView 800 terminal, while a firmware upgrade is in process, could
corrupt the firmware and make the terminal unusable. Take precautions
to prevent the USB flash drive or micro-SD card from being accidentally
disconnected. Also, do not power off the terminal while a firmware
upgrade is in progress.
USB hubs can produce unexpected behaviors and as a result are not
recommended.
