I've just saw a HMI from brand B&R which has the option to connect with a VNCclient to this device. Connections between client and server happens by inserting the ip address (which is normal), after inserting the ip address the port needs to defined. Now here's the thing: when connecting to the hmi with port 50003 the client can control the hmi device anditlooks exactlythe same on both client and server side. Now when you enter a different port 50004 (for example), you can control the screen BUT then it is not a 1on1 copy of the hmi screen, but it's a screen with a higher resolution, different layout, but the same controls as the 1on1 copy. Now I know he works with two screens, when connecting with port 50003 he connects to the first screen (1n1 copy) and with port 50004 to the other. So actually the same screens are made twice with different layouts. Now is something like this possible with sm@rtclient? Is it possible, dependant on port to take you to a differnt screen with a different resolution and a different layout? I hope my explaination is clear and I would really appreciate some input. Kind regards, Jens

But here are my experiences with the resolution of Sm@rtServer so far: With the Internet Explorer and the http port I didn't find a way to change the resolution so far (except changingthe zoom factorof IE). The Sm@rtClient App reduces the resolution to the resolution of the mobile device (smartphone, tablet...), which isvery comfortable. If you use the Sm@rtClient view on another device (Runtime PC or another panel) you can choose the scaling factor. K!ke

K!ke Thanks for your input K!ke, too bad this isn't possible, It would be a nice option to have when you have a HMI device with lower resolution. But I understand it isn'timpossible to foresee every option and possibility, and I must say I don't mind either...The siemens HMI is far more qualitative and faster and has other build-in features those other panels haven't. So no love lost here! Kind regards, Jens
