Connect Siemens HMI TP1200 Comfort with PC/Laptop

Post by akhmadzaki »

I have a Siemens HMI TP1200 Comfort 6AV2 124-0MC01-0AX0 in my machine.
I want to clone the display on the HMI to PC/Laptop.
My question is:
1. What software that I need for this task?
2. What kind of interface that I need between the HMI and PC/Laptop (for example ethernet cable, etc)?
3. Do I need to communicate with PLC connected with HMI or can I just connect with the HMI?

Thanks in advance for the answer.
