Configuration
The Network Server Configuration application configures settings for VNC,
FTP, web, Kepware, and file server activities on an Ethernet network.
VNC Server Configuration
The terminal provides two VNC client viewers:
• Vncviewer.exe is in the /Windows folder on the terminal desktop. You
can deploy this viewer to a personal computer to connect, view, and
control a PanelView Plus 7 terminal. See these sections for details:
– VNC Connection Requiring a Password for View-only Operations
on page 139
– VNC Connection with Separate Passwords for View and Control
Operations on page 141
• Another viewer on the terminal lets you establish a VNC connection to
another PanelView Plus 7 terminal. To access this viewer, click
Start>Programs>VNC Viewer. See these sections for details:
– Establish a VNC Connection Between a Local Terminal and a
Remote Terminal on page 143
– Close a VNC Connection to a Remote Terminal on page 144
– Make a New VNC Connection to a Remote Terminal on page 145
– Transfer Files Between a Local and a Remote Terminal on page 145
The VNC Server tab in the Network Server Configuration dialog box
configures settings for a client device to view or control the terminal over a
VNC connection.
TIP Click OK in the title bar of the dialog box to apply new settings. You are
asked if you want to restart the service immediately.
