For upload of ready iRidium projects on control panels it is faster to use the iRidium Transfer application on your PC. With the help of Transfer you can send the project from iRidium GUI Editor to the control panel or select one of the projects for upload.

  • install iRidium on PC
  • install the i2 Control application on the control panel
  • create an iRidium visualization project
  • get free or buy a commercial license
  • set up wired or wireless IP connection between the PC and control panel

Projects can be uploaded on control panels without license files. But in this case there won’t be connection with equipment.

Prepare the Panel, Project and License

A panel added in Transfer has two red fields: Design and License:

  • in the "Design" field select the project which you want to upload on the panel
  • in the "License" field select the license file for the panel. Assignment of the corresponding license is made automatically.

 If you added the license but you cannot select it for the panel,
