Thanks to the uniform engineering system, from the panel to the SCADA, it is also possible to import data for WinCC Runtime Professional. The system provides detailed information about any functions that might be different and detailed specifications for adapting the configurations. In the machine-level area, the target HMI device can be easily switched via the device switch-over. Even if it has been designed for other target devices, this does not mean that the configuration must be started from the beginning, because the configuration is freely scalable. Often a comparable WinCC project already exists and a great deal of it can be imported. This allows you to ensure that all of the devices of a production line have the same basic configuration and are identical in appearance. User-defined settings can be saved and imported directly when creating another device. One example is the device wizard: The most important settings can be configured right when the device is being created. SIMATIC WinCC supports the project engineer with wizards for routine tasks. Time-saving configuration means: delegating tasks. In this development, the TIA Portal represents the next logical step: from similar to shared, from related to integrated.Īn operating philosophy and a data model without loss of functionality. The look and feel of the software products also became more uniform under the influence of office software. Only with the increasing importance of software ergonomics did software developers begin to look beyond their own tool and begin to include the approaches of other developers with regard to user interfaces in their considerations. Engineering software was developed to the point where it became a highly specialized, tailored tool for a given task. The shared framework, uniform interface, and the same type of configuration of comparable automation tasks ensures a short familiarization period with a high recognition value.įor decades, the development of automation software was aimed at more functionality and more efficiency. For the first time, the TIA Portal combines the engineering systems for the diverse automation tasks.
