Installation
Prerequisites
Compact HMI Editor has prerequisites that must be fulfilled in order for the program to run
properly. These include:
• A computer with Windows XP, Vista, 7, or 8
• Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5. Compact HMI Editor setup will install this package if it is not
already present on the computer where Compact HMI Editor is being installed (see Figure
4). Version 3.5 is required.
In order to use the screen you create with Compact HMI Editor, you need a Super Systems touch
screen with Compact HMI. Refer to the “Use with Compatible Touch Screens” section for more
details.
Installation Procedure
Insert the Compact HMI Editor installation media
into the USB port, CD/DVD drive, or other proper
location. Open Windows Explorer and browse to
the folder containing the Compact HMI Editor

those shown in Figure 2.

Double click on the “CompactHMIEditorSetup.msi” file.
If Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 is installed, the Setup Wizard will appear (Figure 3). If .NET
Framework 3.5 is not installed, the Setup Wizard will first prompt you to install .NET
Framework 3.5 (Figure 4). .NET Framework must be installed before Compact HMI Editor is
run. An Internet connection is needed in order to download the required files for .NET
