Clean screen

If you use the WinCC RT Advanced software in connection with the device, you can clean
the touch screen of the device while it is switched on and the project running. An operating

the clean screen is activated, touch screen operation is locked for a configured period of
time. The time the touch screen is locked can be set between 5 and 30 seconds. The time
remaining for the lockout is indicated by a progress bar.
Note

When cleaning the touch screen, an unintentional response in the controller can be triggered
by touching keys.
Always open the clean screen or switch off the device before you clean the touch screen
while the system is running.

When the clean screen is active, operations on the device are not possible.
Wait for the period of the clean screen to lapse. Then you can operate the system again with
the device.
