Good morning all,
I am having an issue with the Print2PDF function on a PanelView Plus. I have setup the Print2PDF output to store the display on a USB storage device when it is plugged in and this works fine. The problem comes up when I do not have a USB device inserted into the HMI. When there is no USB device inserted and the print display button is pressed the HMI creates a folder called "USB Storage" and puts the image in that folder. Now when a USB device is inserted it sees that there is already a folder called "USB Storage" and then defaults to something like "USB Storage1". When this happens it appears to the end user that the print display button does not work because the HMI will keep moving the image into the local storage and not onto the USB.
Is there a way to prevent the Print2PDF function from creating a folder if it doesn't exist? Or is there a way to make the print display invisible until the HMI can see that a USB device is plugged in?
Thanks.
