Leo Wei 1.1 2
3 The following is mainly talking about the how to judge and treat the HMI when the users come across the faulty issue.
4
Stone Wu 3.1 5 There are mainly three kinds of most common display failures:
Leo Wei 1.1 6
Stone Wu 3.1 7 1. Black screen;
8 1. White screen,
9 1. Blurry screen.
10
Leo Wei 1.1 11 In view of these three failure phenomena, the judgments and solutions are as follow.
12
Stone Wu 3.1 13 == Black screen ==
Leo Wei 1.1 14
Stone Wu 3.1 15 After the HMI is powered on, the screen is black, and the bepper keeps repeating a beep at a certain frequency, indicating that the power supply is insufficient.
Leo Wei 1.1 16
Stone Wu 3.1 17 * Please use the power supply with Voltage **DC12V~~30V**, Output current **500mA** and above.
Leo Wei 1.1 18
Stone Wu 3.1 19 After the HMI is powered on, the screen is always black, the beeper does not sound at all and all lights off:
Leo Wei 1.1 20
Stone Wu 3.1 21 * Check whether the power supply wiring is OK, is it the wiring has poor contact or not. And use the multimeter to test whether the terminal head of power supply has 12~~30V DC, pay attention to the positive and negative poles cannot be reversed.
Leo Wei 1.1 22
Stone Wu 3.1 23 After the HMI is powered one, the screen can show the LOGO, the beeper beep once, the power light is on, and the screen is turning into black after loading into the project screen:
Leo Wei 1.1 24
Stone Wu 3.1 25 * Check whether the project is lost, redownload a normal project. After the HMI is restarted, whether it can back to normal;
26 ** Normal download but still black: The underlying file is lost;
27 ** Cannot download: The hardware flash issue;
Leo Wei 1.1 28
Stone Wu 3.1 29 After the HMI is powered on, the screen is always black, the beeper has a beep, and the power light is on:
Leo Wei 1.1 30
Stone Wu 3.1 31 * **Method 1: **Touch the screen see whether it can light on the TCH(touch) light.
32 ** If the touch light does not turn on, it is mostly a motherboard problem, please replace a normal motherboard.
33 ** If the touch light is on:
34 * It may be the lcd problem, please confirm whether the contact between the lcd and the motherboard is intact, and whether the lcd cable is oxidized.
35 ** If it is confirmed that the contact is good and not oxidized, please try with a new lcd screen;
36 ** If the replacement of the touch screen still does not work, it means the motherboard is faulty, please replace with a normal motherboard.
37 * **Method 2: **Click on the upper right corner of HMI to see if it can enter the backstage.
38 ** If yes, it can enter the backstage interface, please check whether the LCD is in good contact, whether the cable is oxidized, or try to replace the normal LCD;
39 ** If not, it cannot enter that interface, please replace a normal motherboard;
Leo Wei 1.1 40
Stone Wu 3.1 41 After the HMI is power on, the screen is always black, the beeper does not make a beep, and the power light is on:
Leo Wei 1.1 42
Stone Wu 3.1 43 * **Method 1**: Touch the screen see whether it can light on the TCH(touch) light.
44 ** If the touch light does not turn on, it is mostly a motherboard problem, please replace with a normal motherboard;
45 ** If the touch light is on:
46 * It may be the lcd problem, please confirm whether the contact between the lcd and the motherboard is intact, and whether the lcd cable is oxidized.
47 ** If it is confirmed that the contact is good and not oxidized, please try with a new lcd screen;
48 ** If the replacement of the touch screen still does not work, it means the motherboard is faulty, please replace with a normal motherboard.
49 * **Method 2: **Click on the upper right corner of HMI to see if it can enter the backstage.
50 ** If yes, it can enter the backstage interface, please check whether the LCD is in good contact, whether the cable is oxidized, or try to replace the normal LCD;
Leo Wei 1.1 51
52 -After the HMI is power on, the screen is always black, the beeper does not make a beep, and the power, touch and com light all three are light on:
53
Stone Wu 3.1 54 * **Method 1**: Click on the upper right corner of HMI to see if it can enter the backstage.
55 ** If yes, it can enter the backstage interface, it means it is a hardware issue, please replace the motherboard;
56 ** If not, it cannot enter that interface, it means the firmware is lost, please replace the motherboard;
57 * **Method 2**: Connect to the PC by a USB-B cable:
58 ** If it can be recognized USB, it means a hardware problem, please replace the motherboard;
59 ** If not recognized, it means that the firmware files are missing, please replace the motherboard;
Leo Wei 1.1 60
Stone Wu 3.1 61 == Blank screen (White screen) ==
Leo Wei 1.1 62

Stone Wu 3.1 129 = **2 USB faulty** =
Leo Wei 1.1 130
131 This document is mainly teaching that how to locate the problem if the HMI cannot be detected when connect to PC by the USB cable. Totally there are 3 aspects need to consider: PC USB port, HMI USB port, USB cable.
132
Stone Wu 5.1 133 == PC USB port ==
Leo Wei 1.1 134
Stone Wu 3.1 135 See whether the problem is from PC Port, if change another one USB port, can it be OK?
Leo Wei 1.1 136
Stone Wu 5.1 137 == USB cable ==
Leo Wei 1.1 138
Stone Wu 3.1 139 See whether the problem is from cable, if change another one cable, can it be OK?
Leo Wei 1.1 140
Stone Wu 5.1 141 == HMI USB-B port ==
Leo Wei 1.1 142
Stone Wu 3.1 143 See whether the problem just happen on the single one HMI, if at the same condition of PC and cable, is it able to detect the others HMI?
Leo Wei 1.1 144
Stone Wu 3.1 145 * See whether Device Manager can detect the USB.
146 * Run the PIStudio as Administrator.
Leo Wei 1.1 147
Stone Wu 3.1 148 == When Happen Issue ==
Leo Wei 1.1 149
Stone Wu 3.1 150 First time usage and it happened: It probably the pseudo welding problem.
Leo Wei 1.1 151
Stone Wu 3.1 152 Already used for a while, USB is OK and fine before: Maybe it is caused by interference from the site, check all the devices whether are well grounded or not.
Leo Wei 1.1 153
Stone Wu 3.1 154 = **3 Touch faulty** =
Leo Wei 1.1 155
156 This document is mainly teaching that how to locate the problem if the HMI cannot exit the calibration screen. Totally there are 3 aspects need to consider: calibrate tool, calibration settings, touch board.
157
Stone Wu 3.1 158 == Calibrate rool ==
Leo Wei 1.1 159
160 Please do not use the finger to calibrate the screen, it is the most imprecise method to do so. Please use the pen or screwdriver to calibrate it. When finish the five coordinates, please notice whether there is a pop-up tips on the middle screen. If it is succeed, it will show green tips, while not, it will show a red one. Please refer to the following video:

163
Stone Wu 3.1 164 == Calibration settings ==
Leo Wei 1.1 165
166 Connect the HMI to PC Download tool. Please try to delete the exists calibration file and try to calibrate again. See whether it can help or not.

Stone Wu 3.1 171 == Touch board ==
Leo Wei 1.1 172
173 -If HMI is on the cabinet, please uninstall it from cabinet and try again. If lock too tight on the cabinet, it will influent the touch operations.
174
175 -Try to remove the front film sticker.
176
177 -If all options above are still not help to the calibration, please replace the new touch board.
