Why if I add a Virtual Backplane driver does it display in slot 0 on the Target tab, but as None on the Local tab?

Do

not

add or delete a Virtual Backplane driver. Only one Virtual Backplane is allowed, and deleting and re-adding it results in a port number other than one, which prevents the Virtual Backplane driver from functioning properly.

While slot zero is not a valid slot for use on the desktop (the only platform covered by the Design (Local) tab in

FactoryTalk Linx

), slot zero is the only valid slot on the

PanelView Plus

platforms. So, allowing slot zero on the

Runtime

tab (or

Target

tab) is legitimate.
