The Start Center
The Start Center buttons have the following function:
● Transfer – You switch the HMI device to "Transfer" mode.
The transfer is only activated if at least one data channel has been parameterized, see
section "Parameterizing Transfer (Page 96)".
● Start – You start the project on the HMI device.
If you do not perform an operation, a project already loaded on the HMI device will start
automatically in line with the settings in the Control Panel . If no project is loaded, the
Start Center will activate the transfer.
● Settings – You start the Control Panel.
See section "Overview of functions (Page 78)".
● Taskbar – You open the task list and the Start menu.
The Start Center is displayed again if a project on the HMI device has been closed or if it is
accessed from the project.
