Second monitor
« on: April 02, 2024, 09:26:00 AM »
Hello, I've got the 17" Industrial panel, and I'm trying to set up a second monitor for a process overview screen.  How do I do that - create the second screen that is.  I have a TV attached as the monitor, but I don't know how to get the second form in VB created.

I have not dealt with VB much at all, and all of my HMI experience is Allen-Bradley PanelView and older PanelMate controls.  This seems to have a steep learning curve, hopefully I'll figure it out before our go-live date, but the lack of documentation is frustrating.

I'm guessing it will be something like creating a second MainForm, but I'm not sure how the panel loads the files on boot. Do I just put a second .sln file in the root directory of the thumb drive?  What would I name it?
