Import to Compact HMI 800
Before the import can be done, the “PLC Controller Type” objects representing the
controllers have to be manually created in the Compact HMI 800 system. This has
to be done because the configuration of these objects are dependent on the
installation of the drivers in the node. So before proceeding, the steps for creating a
new PLC Controller type should be followed for each controller. When all
controllers have been created and configured, continue with the steps below:
1. Copy the file to the Compact HMI 800 hard disc.
2. Double click the file to start the Import Export tool.
3. Select the Object Type structure in the structure selector box in the Import
Export tool.

5. Select the Control structure in the structure selector box in the Import Export
tool.

click selection to select all child objects.
8. Right-click on the selected objects and select import.

“Include Dependencies”.
