Procedure
Proceed as follows:
1. Switch off the HMI device.
2. Switch on the configuration PC.
3. Connect the HMI device to the configuration PC either via the PROFINET (LAN) or via
the USB type Mini-B interface. Please note the following for USB connection:
– Connect the USB Mini B connector of the USB cable to the USB type Mini B interface
of the HMI device.
– Connect the USB A connector of the USB cable to a free USB interface of the
configuration PC.
4. Switch on the HMI device.
Result
The configuration PC and HMI device are connected.
If you have connected the HMI device directly to the configuration PC via the PROFINET
(LAN) interface, you will then need to assign an IP address to the HMI device.
If Windows XP is installed on the configuration PC and you have connected the HMI device
to the configuration PC via USB, you will be prompted to install the USB driver. You can find
the USB driver in the installation folder of WinCC.
Note
Updating the operating system
If there is no serviceable HMI device image on the HMI device, you can only update the
operating system by restoring the factory setting. When restoring the factory settings,
connect the PC to the HMI device via the PROFINET (LAN) interface.
Connecting multiple HMI devices in succession
If you connect more than one HMI device with the same IP address in succession to a single
configuring PC, you need to ping the configuring PC once from the HMI device on each
changeover of the HMI device.
