Tools
● UTF8-capable editor (e.g. the integrated editor of the user interface or Notepad)
● A graphics program is needed to create graphics/display images.
File names and coding
Note
When using HMI Operate in the NCU, note that all file names are written in lower case letters
(com, png, txt) on the CF card. This is required because of Linux.
File names are not case-sensitive on the PCU. However, it is recommended that you also use
lower case letters here, in case of a possible subsequent transfer to Linux.
Note
When saving configuration and language files, ensure that the coding is set to UTF-8 for the
editor you are using.
