It sounds like you are trying to create a Virtual Panel, which allows you to use a computer (or a touch screen Windows tablet, such as a Surface) as your controller. Every newer RTI processor comes with a free license for this.

You have to create a project as a virtual panel, set your resolution you want to create the project in, then populate it with graphics etc..

You can find your processor on the network via DHCP, then change the IP to a static address afterward in properties.
