COMBIVIS studio HMI project
5.1.1
Overview
Configuration phase
A project includes screen, alarms, variables used to represent the real plant of ma-
chine. The configuration phase is the creation of the project according to the user
needs and interaction between the humans and the machine.
Transferring the project to C6 HMI / C6 HMI LC
You can transfer a project to C6 HMI / C6 HMI LC as follows:
● Transfer from the configuring PC by using an Ethernet connection
● Copy the Project by using a USB key
Process control phase
After the project is transferred, C6 HMI / C6 HMI LC is ready to communicate to one
or more PLC and to visualize the screens according to the configured project.
ATTENTION
: if you need to communicate with a device connected to the serial port
you must configure the serial port. See chapter 5.1.3.
Commissioning and re-commissioning
When you switch on the first time C6 HMI / C6 HMI LC, there is no project inside. At
first you need to transfer a project into C6 HMI / C6 HMI LC.
After you download a project, you can retransfer another project or another version
of the same project without any special operation, also while the project is running
on C6 HMI / C6 HMI LC.
5.1.2
Transfer
The C6 HMI / C6 HMI LC is always ready for accepting the download of a project,
even when a project is running. In this way, if The C6 HMI / C6 HMI LC is connected
by means of Ethernet to the configuration PC, you are able to download a new pro-
ject or a new version of the same project even without stopping the project.
5.1.3
Configuration the serial port
If your project need to communicate with a device connected to the serial port, you
need to configure the serial port according to the type of serial connection you use
for your communication. The following types of communications are supported by
the serial port of C6 HMI / C6 HMI LC:
RS 232
RS 422
RS 485
C6 HMI / C6 HMI LC comes as default with the serial port set as RS 232. If you want
to change the type of serial communication you must do the following:
