Result
The configuration computer checks the connection to the HMI device. If the connection is not
available or defective, the configuration computer issues the corresponding error message.
If downloading from the configuration computer is terminated as a result of a compatibility
conflict, the HMI device's operating system must be updated.
If the connection is correct, the new project is transferred to the HMI device. Following
successful transfer, the project is started and the start screen of the transferred project
appears.
7.2.2
Start transfer automatically
Overview
The HMI device can automatically switch to transfer mode during runtime when a transfer is
started on the connected configuration computer. Transfer is completed without intervention
on the HMI device. Therefore, this option is particularly recommended for the test phase of a
new project.
To switch to transfer mode from normal operation, open the "Transfer Settings" window on
the HMI device and activate the required connection and the corresponding "Remote
Control" function.
Notice
When the "Remote Control" option is active, runtime automatically shuts down and switches
to transfer mode. Shutdown is not possible when dialogs are open or a transfer has been
started on the HMI device.
Close the dialog or cancel the transfer process on the configuration computer.
Following the start-up phase, disable the automatic transfer option. This will prevent
inadvertently switching the HMI device to transfer mode, stopping runtime. To do this,
deactivate the "Remote Control" options in the Transfer Settings defined for the HMI device.
