Pressing Shift+Enter leads to a crash of the H315 keypad

Which products are affected?

ESP-HMI1-P (HMI Designer versions 1.3, 1.4, 1.5 and 1.6)
EPM-H315 (Text display unit with input keys)

What happens?

When pressing the keys <Shift>+<Enter> of the H315 keypad at the same time, the keypad indicates a blank monitor. The keypad does not respond anymore when pressing any keys.

When does the problem occur?

The key combination <Shift>+<Enter> opens the ServicePage of the keypad. Projects can only be downloaded from HMI Designer if the ServicePage of the keypad is open.

If the keys <Shift>+<Enter> of the H315 keypad are pressed at the same time, the response mentioned above can occur.

Possible diagnostics?

None.

Short-term measures/recommendations?

To open the ServicePage of the H315 keypad, proceed as follows:
  • Assign a key with the command PROJECT – Quit Project. When pressing this key the ServicePage is opened.

or
  • When switching on the keypad do not stop to press the key <Enter> until the ServicePage is opened.

The key combination <Shift>+<Enter> should not be used for calling up the ServicePage.

This function restriction is eliminated with Service Pack 1 of the HMI Designer Version 1.6. The Service Pack can be downloaded free of charge from the download area on the Lenze Internet.

Evaluation:

It is only required to call up the ServicePage when making changes in the HMI project. This means that the ServicePage does not need to be started for operating a machine/system. It is no problem to call up the ServicePage without pressing the key combination <Shift>+<Enter>.
