The InTouch HMI product library consists of a set of user guides and an online help system. The design of InTouch product information uses a task-based approach. This means that books and help are organized by the typical tasks to build an application using the InTouch HMI.
The following figure shows some of the typical tasks that are part of developing an InTouch application. Each user guide describes the specific tasks to set up functional aspects of an InTouch application. The tasks to set up each of these functional components are described in individual user guides or in a chapter of a user guide.

The InTouch library is offered in two different media:
-
Portable Document File (PDF), which can be viewed with Adobe® Reader®. Each user guide is included on the InTouch installation DVD as a PDF file.
-
Online help, which can be accessed on your browser using the AVEVA Products Help Viewer. To launch the Help Viewer, on the Windows Start menu, click AVEVA, and then click AVEVA Help.
The AVEVA Help Viewer launches in your default browser.
-
The Online Help can also be viewed while an InTouch HMI application is running. The help is context-sensitive and is also linked to all online InTouch information.
The following table describes the InTouch documentation library, delivered as PDFs. Online help is available from each application.
