Viewing PowerPoint Presentations on TP1200 HMI

Unfortunately, the TP1200 HMI does not natively support viewing Microsoft PowerPoint (.pptx or .ppt) presentations.

The TP1200 HMI primarily displays graphics created within the TIA Portal environment (WinCC Runtime). It's designed for visualizing process data and control elements, not for general document viewing.

However, you could consider these workarounds:

• Convert to Images: Export each PowerPoint slide as an image (e.g., JPEG, PNG) and display these images sequentially within your WinCC project.
• Web Browser Control (Limited): If the TP1200 Comfort Panel supports it (check your specific model's documentation), you *might* be able to use a web browser control to access a PowerPoint presentation hosted on a web server. This is often not a smooth experience due to compatibility issues.

For more information on TP1200 capabilities, please refer to the official Siemens documentation:
