Hi All,

I received this information from our customer......

They realize the same application for two Hmi's comfort panel and connect them to CPU1500.

Now the Hmi's are placed in different point of the plant. So when an operator for example display one screnn in the Hmi number 1, the same screen is displayed on Hmi number 2.

My question....is it possible and how make display different screen in the Hmi's??

Seems that the two Hmi's screens are synchronized.

Thanks in advance

Hello pbed,

It is possible that the screen is selected by controller.

See the following link:

How do you configure a screen change via the controller in WinCC (TIA Portal)?

What you describe seems very intentional. It must have been designed that way. The HMI is a system on its own unless the design is made to get paging commands from an external source. Most likely there is a PLC that is telling it which page to show.

To break the link, the design needs to change. Best to ask the OEM that supplied the equipment. There might be a genuinely good reason why the functionality is like it is.

Thanks ,

but forget what I wrote before........

Jus right now I received additional feedback......

Customer use smart client just to display only the screens of the Hmi from remote.

They ask me if is possible when they display from remote the screens of the Hmi , that in the hmi the screens not change.  

 Hello pbed,

They ask me if is possible when they display from remote the screens of the Hmi , that in the hmi the screens not change.  

no, because it is the property of the remote HMI to show the screen of the main HMI.

They would need a duplicated project on the second HMI. Depending on the design it might not be sufficient to just copy the main HMI.
