How can a screenshot be created from the display of a variTRON?

There are situations in which a screenshot of the variTRON display is useful and helpful.

The variTRON 300 and variTRON 500 have a small LCD display on the front of the housing.

To create the prerequisites for taking a screenshot, the procedure is identical for all three variTRON types:

The function for creating a screenshot, which is deactivated when the variTRON is delivered, must be activated in the WebCockpit.

If you click on the logo of the logged-in user at the top right of the WebCockpit, the menu appears with which the Settings can be called up.

If you scroll all the way down in the Production area, you will see the Taking Screenshot button.

By pressing this button, a screenshot is produced of the display - and
