Project Manager Operations
Introduction
Project Manager integrates every available function of the EB8000. Each function
will be introduced in this chapter.
1
A .Settings
Operating MT8000 by Ethernet needs to designate correct IP address and necessary
password. “Download” and “Reset” functions share a set of password while “Upload”
function uses another password. Please refer to the related chapters about how to
modify or view the IP address and password. After change “Language”, please exit
and restart software to enable language mode change.
B. Reboot HMI
Under certain situation, users need to reset the system, such as updating the internal
files of HMI. This function can be executed without restart the system.
C. EasyBuilder 8000
Activate EasyBuilder 8000 graphical editor.
D. EasyConverter
Data record conversion tool
E. Recipe Editor
Recipe data conversion tool

F. Building Download Data from CF Card/USB Stick
Except Ethernet, data also can be downloaded to the MT8000 by CF card or USB
memory stick. The function is for building the download data and the settings shows
as below.
[Select the folder to save download data]
Press [Browse] to search for and assign the file path (or directory name) and then
press [Build] to set all contexts of the downloaded data. Users can directly designate
the save location in CF card/ USB stick or copy the entire directory to CF card/USB
stick after completely building the data.
Insert CF card or USB stick and assign the name of the file, EB8000 will start
downloading the whole content of the file to HMI.
Note: Save location should be the name of directory and avoid designating only root
directory.
For example, both c:\” and f:\\” are illegal names.
[Project]
Use EB8000 to configure the context of display (*.mtp file) and then compile it to
*xob file for HMI terminal. The desired *xob file for CF card can be selected by
using this function.
3
[Recipe (RW)]
RW Recipe file for CF card can be selected by this function. The max effective size of
the file is 64K. Please refer to “Receipt Transfer” for more details.
[Recipe A (RW_A)]
RW_A Recipe file for CF card can be selected by this function. The max effective
size of the file is 64K. Please refer to “Receipt Transfer” for more details.
[Data log]
Data log file for CF card can be selected by this function. Please refer to “data log
object” for more details.
G. Download
Downloading files to the MT8000 through Ethernet. Press the [Download] button and
the dialog appears as below:
[Firmware]
Check [Firmware] to update all of the kernel programs of HMI.

[Project]
EB8000 are able to have the content of screen configuration (MTP file) compiled and
get *.xob file for MT8000.The desired *.xob file downloaded to the terminal can be
selected.
[RW]
Select the desired RW recipe data to be downloaded to MT8000. The max size
available is 64K Please refer to [recipe transfer] chapter for further information.
[RW_A]
Select the desired RW_A recipe data to be downloaded to MT8000. The max size
available is 64K. Please refer to [recipe transfer] chapter for further information.
[Data log]
Select the desired data log file to be downloaded to MT8000. Please refer to “Data log
object” for more details.
[Reset recipe]
Check [Reset recipe] to set all figures of recipe to 0 before the process of
downloading.
[Reset event log]
Check [Reset Event log] to clear all of the event log files in HMI before the process of
downloading.
[Reset data log]
Check [Reset data log] to clear all of the data log files in HMI before the process of
downloading.

Frequently Answers and Questions

How do I connect the MT8000 to my network?
You can connect to the MT8000 through Ethernet. You will need to configure its IP address and password in the "Settings" section of the Project Manager software.
Can I download data to the MT8000 from a CF card or USB stick?
Yes, using the "Build Download Data for CF/USB Disk..." function in the Project Manager software.
How do I update the firmware of the MT8000?
You can update the firmware using the "Download" function in the Project Manager software. Select the "Firmware" option and then choose the desired firmware file.
What is the "Recipe Editor" function used for?
The "Recipe Editor" allows you to create and modify recipe data that can be used by the MT8000 to control industrial processes. This data can be stored on the MT8000 itself or uploaded from a computer.
How do I run an on-line simulation?
Select the "On-line Simulation..." function in the Project Manager software. You will need to specify the source of the *.xob file containing the simulation data.
What is the difference between on-line and off-line simulation?
On-line simulation runs the simulation using the actual hardware of the MT8000. Off-line simulation runs the simulation on your computer, without using the actual hardware.
