I need to replace an older panel, what is the correct replacement and how do I program the new panel? – DeltaACDrives.com

Replacements and how to program them below.

DOP-B07E415 replacement is the DOP-107EG
DOP-AS38BSTD replacement is the DOP-103WQ
DOP-A57GSTD replacement is the DOP-107EG

However, the DOP100s (new versions) do not have Function keys. These will need to be programed in to standard soft keys using Dopsoft4. Also, you will need the upload and download password for the HMI from the OEM that the panel is used with.

Tools needed:

USB to serial converter (9-Pin RS-232). Because modern PCs do not have the USB driver for the HMI.
Null Modem
The Password to upload and download the HMI project – Machine OEM must provide this.
Delta’s Screen editor software. This software we will need to provide, it is no longer downloadable.
Delta’s DOPsoft4 download

Dopsoft4 can open the *.DOP file, the same type that DOP-A uses as created in Delta’s Screen editor software.

Entry into the HMI’s system and force selection of COM1 (in the HMI) will be required to make that serial port unloadable and downloadable. See appendix C of the DOP-A/Screen editor HMI manual.

Upload the project:

Check that the serial communicating parameters in the PC for that serial port (USB to serial converter) match the settings in the HMI (also available via the system under “settings.”)
Start the upload from the file menu of Delta’s Screen Editor software – this is where the password is needed.

Save the project:

This file save the project to the PC as the *.DOP.
Open the project (*.DOP) in DOPsoft4 for loading onto the DOP100.
Load the project onto your new DOP100

A USB connection can be used for this step, the driver is available via DOPsoft4 “Environment” dialog.
