Overview Chapter 1
Desktop Access
You can allow or restrict access to the Windows desktop on the terminal. From
the desktop, you can perform system and control panel operations or run third-
party applications. You can even allow access temporarily to perform specific
tasks, then disable desktop access to prevent unauthorized changes.
Refer to Desktop Access
on page 46 for details on how to modify desktop
access.
Start-up Options
The terminal can perform one of three actions at startup:
• Launch a FactoryTalk View ME HMI application.
• Launch FactoryTalk View ME Station in Configuration mode. This
mode lets you configure terminal settings and start-up options, load
applications to run, and enable or disable desktop access.
• Launch the Windows desktop.
The factory default state and start-up option after a firmware update is to
launch the terminal in Configuration mode. Refer to Configure Start-up
Options on page 51 for details on how to change the start-up option.
EtherNet/IP Communication
PanelView Plus 7 Standard terminals communicate with ControlLogix 5570
and CompactLogix 5370 controllers over an EtherNet/IP connection.
