Notice
Version number
The uploaded project file can only be opened with a configuration software whose version
number is greater than or equal to that of the configuration software used to create the
project.
Test source file
WinCC cannot determine if the source file on the HMI device was generated from the project
run on it. If a transfer is performed at any time without the "Upload" option activated, only the
project is transferred. The existing source file may be from a previously transferred project.
Procedure
1. Select the menu options "Project > Transfer > Communication Settings" on the
configuration computer in WinCC flexible.
The "Communication Settings" dialog box is opened.
2. Select the required HMI device type and connection type between the HMI device and
the configuration computer.
3. Define the connection parameters.
4. Select "OK".
5. Switch the HMI device to transfer mode in the loader.
6. On the configuration computer, use WinCC to start the back transfer using the "Project >
Transfer > Back Transfer" menu options.
The project is opened on the configuration computer.
Result
The uploaded project is opened on the configuration computer. Save the project, if
necessary.
