WinCC OA Help

Post by RudiKreiner »

In V3.9, PVSS Help could be installed on a PC separately from the entire PVSS software.
Is that no longer possible with WinCC OA 3.14, because it has a completely different help file format?

The Help file is in the Qt compressed help format. On Linux just install Qt assistant (e.g. openSuse in libqt5-qttools) and open the help file.

On Windoze however you need to copy files from a PC where you installed WinCC_OA:
Copy following files from an installed bin dir into a new directory:
- assistant
- All Qt libraries (in reality not all are needed but it's simpler to copy all of them)
- the complete subdirs: sqldrivers und platforms

then copy the .qch file to the dir, run assistant and load the qch file via the menu "Preferences - Documentation"
