l
HMWIN Studio version must always be aligned with HMI Runtime on the device,
l
the user is responsible for updating HMI Runtime components on the HMI device at any HMWIN Studio update,
l
the HMI Runtime update can be done directly from HMWIN Studio using the Update Target command available in
the Run\Manage Target dialog,
l
projects created in a HMWIN Studio version no older than V1.00 (00) can be opened and handled by any newer
version,
l
projects created with older versions of HMWIN Studio, opened with later versions and deployed to compatible HMI
Runtime, are ensured to maintain the performance and functionality,
l
compatibility between newer versions of HMI Runtime and projects created and deployed with older versions of
HMWIN Studio is not ensured.
Important: Do not edit projects with a version of HMWIN Studio older than the one used to create
them. It can result in a damage of the project and to HMI Runtime instability.
Converting projects between different HMI devices
Project conversion from different HMI device models is supported, however, some manual operations may be required if
the project uses features not supported in the destination device.
Guideline
Before converting a project have a look if some unsupported features are present (see
"HMI devices capabilities" on the
), and adjust your project by removing the unsupported features before converting the project.
In particular:
l
Verify limitations and features not supported by the new HMI device (see
"Table of functions and limits" on page 434
for details).
l
Remove unsupported widgets, actions, system variables, protocols, project properties.
l
If the project uses external storage, verify if the same storage path is still available.
l
Adjust OS-specific external applications or paths.
l
If necessary, reduce project size according to the new HMI device type limitations (see "Limitations" for details).
l
Since HMI devices are based on different hardware platforms with different CPU speed, RAM memory size, cache
size, make sure to check project boot time and page loading time for each page in the project.
l
Verify JavaScript code for OS-specific operations.
OS-specific features
Linux is case sensitive while Windows CE is not. Consequently, projects on Linux HMI devices might have different files
named based on upper and lower case, e.g. 'dump1.csv' and 'Dump1.csv' are not possible on Windows CE HMI devices.
