Hi PrzemekELKAR,

The solution you are using is based on the built-in PDF Viewer application. It is not possible to use the WinCC Unified GUI on a Unified Panel in parallel, since both applications only run in full-screen mode.

However, you can use the Web Control instead.

Kind regards
Stefan

 Hi Stefan,

Using this instruction i can display pdf file saved on PC, but not on HMI.
I found SIMATIC HMI WinCC Unified Engineering V18 and there is:

"

Displaying PDF files in the "Browser" on a Unified Comfort Panel

The "Browser" object displays PDF files that are available:

• Locally on the HMI device
• On an external storage medium

You can view a PDF file in the following ways:

• Enter path and file name in the URL input field of the "Browser" operating object.
• In the configuration of the "Browser" operating object under "Properties", link the URL with a tag of the type WString which contains path and file name.

Syntax: file:///<path>/<filename>.pdf

Pay attention to uppercase/lowercase spelling.

Examples:

• Open file from the data memory card: file:///media/simatic/X51/UCPManual.pdf
• Open locally saved file: file:///home/industrial/UCPManual.pdf

"

But using syntax file:/// i get error: The value is invalid. URL has to start with 'https://'

Is there a way to do this in TIa V17? Or is it only possible in TIA V18?
