Uploading image to the display via STEP 7
In the STEP 7 device view, you download an image from your file system to the CPU display
with the "Display > User-defined logo" function. Different images can be downloaded to the
two R/H-CPUs for clearer differentiation.
Figure 13-4
To display the uploaded image in the correct aspect ratio, use images with the following
dimensions depending on the CPU:
Table 13- 4 Dimensions
CPU
CPU 1513R-1 PN
CPU 1515R-2 PN
CPU 1517H-3 PN
CPU 1518HF-4 PN
If the uploaded image exceeds the specified dimensions, the display shows only part of the
image. The "Adapt logo" option in STEP 7 allows you to reduce the image to the specified
dimensions. However, note that the original aspect ratio of the image is not retained in such
cases.
Displaying image on the display
To display the uploaded image on the display of the CPU, press the ESC key in the main
screen of the display. When you upload an image and are in the main screen, the display
automatically shows the image after 60 seconds. To hide the image again, press any key on
the display.
