Why can the panel (Basic or Comfort) or Runtime Advanced
not establish a connection to the controller after
the WinCC Panel Images V17 Update 6 image has been
installed on the panel?
You have installed WinCC Panel Images V17 Update 6
on your system and upgraded your HMI (Basic or Comfort Panel)
to version 17.0.0.6.
Since then, no connection can be established between
the corresponding HMI or Runtime Advanced and a controller.
This FAQ response describes the procedure for establishing
a connection between the HMI and the controller.
