Combine HMI project with texts

RetroK

Can you tell me how to combine two wincc project as one project?

I have saved(copy from step7)  2 hmi project from Simatic Manager(v5.5 sp4).

and I have migrated that to tia wincc project.

and I want combine that 2 project as one.

I want use that project with Device Proxy.

How can I combine two hmi project ?

Hi all,

I'm tring to solve this for some time. I've copied HMI from one project to another as described, but it is always withuot texts - project texts are not updated.

How should I overcome this to avoid manual retyping all texts again.

Regards

Hello Moravek

Which TIA Portal Version do you use exactly?

What Project texts do you mean? Texts from Pictures or Messages or Textlists?

Can you give us a small example how the heaviour looks like?

Bye Murof

I'm curently using TIA v13 SP1 upd4.

I have one project with six PLC's and second project with 1 HMI. Each PLC needs same HMI so I need to copy it six time into project with PLC's.

When I copy it, none texts are copied. I can do Text lists quite easily by coping it to exel format. But Text fields or button texts i have to re-enter manualy one by one. 

I've tried to export / import project texts from Languages & Resources, but this is not working neither. It says that rows do not fit.

Does no answer means it is not possible or I do something wrong and that's why it's not copied as I wish?

It doesn't seem likely that nobody experienced same need of coping HMI's before.

Hello Moravek,

1. Take your HMI-project. Save it "Save AS" under name PLC1xxxx

2. Take your HMI-project. Save it "Save AS" under name PLC2xxxx

and so on. Then you have 6 projects, for every PLC a corresponding project.

Is this what you intended to do? Maybe it would fit better if you use libraries or faceplates?

Not really!

In fact I have to merge two project into one. Project with HMI and project with six PLC's.
