Panel Builder 600 not including CP620
Hello, ABB.
I just downloaded Automtion Builder 2.0 from the ABB website.
I'm trying to program a CP620 but on Panel Builder 600 I have limited access to the CP600 HMIs. (screenshot_1)I had already tried the 30-day-trial license last year, so right now I am using a free license. Is this why I can't select all the CP600 when starting a new project?
Also, as a side problem, when trying to start a new project on Automation Builder, I'm asked to use a template, but the list appears empty (screenshot_2).
I think it's a license problem, but if there's another way to fix this I'll gladly try it.
Thanks a lot!

Hi,
Look the license requirements for AB 2.0 and the packages. Most probably you will need a license installed, in order to use AB in full. Still Basic version is marked as free. I could recommend you to uninstall all existing versions, and try to re-install the AB package, marking as BASIC.

For the panels - CP604, 607 and 610 are eCo panels and they can be configured for free with a so called Panel Builder 600 Basic. For other types for sure you will need a valid license.

Hi
IMHO your issue could depend on that the trial version non include the CP600 models like CP620 but only the eCo models of CP600 series HMIs.
In my AB - 2.03 version with licence- I can select every type of HMIs panel, as you can see below:
Hope this help you
