Specifying device name
In the "Device information" area, specify a name for the Industrial Thin Client in "Device
name". This name will allow the administrator to identify the device. The device name will be
displayed at the following places:
• In the title bar of the configuration settings
• As the PROFINET station name in SIMATIC Manager
The device name is also the PROFINET station name and must meet the following conditions:
• One or more identifiers separated by a dot.
• Length of identifier: 1-25 characters
• Length of the device name: 1-255 characters, but only up to 26 characters are displayed
on the device
• The identifiers contain lower case letters a-z and numbers 0-9.
• The identifiers cannot start or not end with "-".
• The first identifier does not have the form "port-xyz" or "port-xyz-abcde" where a, b, c, d, e,
x, y, z = numbers 0 to 9.
• Identifiers do not start with "xn--" if RFC 3490 is applied.
• The device name may not end with "0".
• The device name does not have the n.n.n.n format, where n = 0 to 999.
Devices with more than one Ethernet interface do not need more than one device name.
Only up to 23 characters of the comment are displayed on the device (see above).
Setting up screen
Set the system language that includes the following texts under "Language":
• Start menu and settings
• On-screen keyboard and externally attached USB keyboard
• Messages
Damage to the machine or plant through operating error
The configured system language, English for example, also determines the keyboard
language of the externally connected USB keyboard. If you then connect an English
keyboard, the keys do not have the same meaning as what is printed on them.
This may result in operating errors at the machine and personal injury or damage to the
machine or plant. To connect an English keyboard, set the system language to English under
"Language" in the Start menu "Configuration > System".
Under "Screen brightness", adjust the intensity of the backlighting.
If you select the "Right mouse click" option, each contact on the touch screen lasting more
than 2 seconds will be interpreted as a right-click.
