Trying to get this to work so I can remotely update my non-ethernet PLCs . Is there a tutorial on this ?
Also is there a list of HMIs that support it ?
Thanks

Hi @david,

All modern Weintek HMIs support serial passthrough, however, it is important to check if the device driver that you are using supports this feature. Therefore, please locate the document associated with the device driver used within your project to determine if passthrough is supported.

Note: The connection guide may explicitly state if pass-through is or is not supported, but if it does not mention pass-through this feature may still be supported.
