HMI and SCADA software
We supply SCADA (Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition) and HMI (Human Machine Interface) solutions as well as RTU, PLC and Micro-Grid systems, server-network configurations, bay controllers and digital protection, station and plant command, control, monitoring, and diagnostics solutions.
SIMATIC WinCC (TIA Portal) is part of a comprehensive, integrated engineering concept that offers a uniform engineering environment for the programming and configuration of control and visualization solutions.
This engineering framework is a milestone in software development and represents the consistent further development of the TIA (Totally Integrated Automation) concept. WinCC in the TIA Portal is the software for all HMI applications, ranging from the simplest operation solutions with Basic Panels to SCADA applications on PC-based multi-user systems. The range of solutions is thus increased significantly compared to the predecessor product, SIMATIC WinCC Flexible. SIMATIC WinCC V7 is still available for more complex applications with Plant Intelligence solutions or redundant architectures, while WinCC Open Architecture addresses solutions with highly customer-specific adaptation requirements, including non-Windows platforms.
Benefits:
- Innovative configuration interface based on the latest software technologies.
- Comprehensive library concept for user-definable objects and faceplates.
- Intelligent tools for graphical configuration and mass data handling.
- Start/stop sequences.
- Communication with remote stations and control centres.
Design and functions. Compared to WinCC Flexible, configuration efficiency has been further increased, particularly if other TIA components, such as the SIMATIC S7 PLC, are part of the automation solution. The perfect interaction with STEP 7 in the TIA Portal allows entering the same data only once and guarantees consistent data management.
Perfect interaction in the engineering framework. The design of the software editors in the TIA Portal is based on a shared layout and shared navigation concept. The hardware configuration, logic programming, parameterization of a frequency converter, or the design of an HMI screen – each environment has the same editor design, specifically designed for intuitive use to save time and costs.
Libraries and faceplates. The library concept of the TIA Portal is not limited to the supplied program blocks or faceplates. With the TIA Portal, the user can create their own libraries with various engineering objects, which can be easily reused.
Intelligent tools for efficient configuration. Time-saving configuration means delegating tasks. SIMATIC WinCC supports project engineers with wizards for routine tasks and provides them with a lot of sophisticated tools and functions that ensure excellent results and make the work swift.
