Configuration
To be able to configure the HMI panel, the following software is required:
iX Developer to do the configuration.
BCS Tools for X2 panels with CODESYS Runtime.
Welcome Screen
Apply power to the HMI panel.
Within 10–15 seconds, the welcome screen will appear (if there is no iX Runtime project on the HMI panel).
The following items about the HMI panel are listed:
Size of external memory card, if applicable
IP address
Panel image version
CODESYS Runtime version
If a project has been downloaded to the panel, it will be loaded automatically.
If there is no project in the panel, touching the screen will display the service menu.
If there is a SD card, or USB flash drive, inserted into the panel, and the project on the SD card/USB flash drive differs from what is saved in the HMI panel, the user is asked if the project and IP-settings should be restored.
