In the "Load preview" dialog box, specify the options for the loading process.
–
"Load Runtime": Selection list for overwriting or keeping the runtime software on the
HMI device.
–
"Fit": In this area you define whether the version of individual components should be
adjusted if the version of the component in the configuration differs from the version of
the component on the HMI device. If the version on the HMI device is more recent,
you can select "Downgrade", otherwise "Upgrade".
–
"Runtime start": Selection list that allows you to specify whether the runtime software
is started on the HMI device after loading or not.
–
"Runtime values": In this area you define whether the data of tags, alarms and the
user administration should be retained on the HMI device or not. If the respective
option is selected, the data on the HMI device will be retained. If the respective option
is cleared, then the data on the HMI device will be deleted or overwritten by the data in
the configuration. If you want to update user administration on the HMI device, the
"Keep current user administration data in runtime" option must be cleared.
–
"Reset logs": Selection list for resetting or keeping all logs. If you select "Reset all", the
data of all data logs, alarm logs and context logs are deleted on the HMI device.
–
"HMI Runtime": This area contains information about runtime and firmware/operating
system version of the HMI device.
–
"Secure transfer": In this area you determine whether the project is transferred
encrypted or not. Additional information is available in the section "Transfer

The project is located on the HMI device and can be started. After the transfer, test the
operating elements and screen changes in the "offline" mode. If all operating elements and
screen changes function correctly, you can switch the HMI device to "online" mode.
