Efficiency in EngineeringIntelligent tools for efficientengineeringEfficient processing of mass dataTags and the optimizedcommunication to the S7 PLCsBy the integration of stand-alone editors for alarm logging, tag logging, text library, user administrator, userarchive and the acoustic alarm into the ConfigurationStudio the mass data engineering got again much moreefficient.Resulting from the integration into the SIMATIC Managerof the S7-300/400 PLCs it is possible to take and alignall variable connections as symbols and all AS messagesautomatically. In combination with the actual S7-1200and S7-1500 PLCs the transfer of the AS Symbols out ofa connected PLC into the WinCC project is much faster.This reduces the time for the parameterizing of the communication dramatically and that’s why the risk of potential faults decreases. It is also possible to automaticallytake over the AS messages of a S7-1500 into WinCC.Due to the permanently increasing level of automationand the related complexity of the plants the cost – andtime – pressure is increasing because of the internationalcompetition. One response to this pressure has to be efficient engineering on the SCADA layer.SIMATIC WinCC supports short Time-to-Market whenbuilding new plants and achieves a minimum of downtime when doing plant modifications because of its efficient engineering tools.It is possible to open each single editor separately whichmakes it very easy to exchange data between these editors. Of course the usual operating functionality of Excelis still valid. When doing project work in a team it is ofcourse possible for multiple project engineers to openthe single editors in parallel.Efficiency in EngineeringAdded ValueEfficiency in RuntimeScalabilityPackagesSupport of native drivers for PROFIBUS FMS and PROFIBUSDP, Allen Bradley, Modicon and Mitsubishi.

Ready for worldwideapplicationsEfficient diagnosis in the engineeringusing the cross-reference listFig.: Messages in different languagesThe administration and implementation of the messagesfor the destination countries is clearly arranged and therefore efficient to manage. The use of UNICODE makes theimplementation of global applications very easy. By theutilization of the TextLibrary it is possible to export all (orsubsets of the) texts used in WinCC. Vice versa it is ofcourse possible to import all these texts after they aretranslated to any language.Resulting from the integration of the cross-referenceeditor it is on one hand possible to locate very fast theplaces where a special variable is used for example incase of troubleshooting. On the other hand it is possible to release non used variables to align the licensecosts optimal to the actual project.The appropriate operator language is independent regardless of the language of the installed operating system.Every operator can individually choose the language ofthe displayed texts. For example it is possible to displaymessages simultaneously using different languages whenworking in international teams.Efficiency in EngineeringAdded Value Efficiency in RuntimeScalabilityPackagesInnovationWinCC OptionsOpennessOperating systems andhardware requirementsi

Integrated user administrationincluding SIMATIC LogonFig.: WinCC user administratorUsing the WinCC User Administration you consistently canassign and check the access rights of the users regardlessif it is a local access or if the access is web based. For upto 128 user groups with up to 128 single users each theaccess rights for WinCC functions can be administered.In total it is possible to assign 999 different permissions.Using a configuration tool there are several settingoptions possible:The user management with SIMATIC Logon which is a partof the basic system is integrated into the security systemas well as into the user administration of Windows. Therefore it also covers the extended FDA safety requirements.That’s why it is possible for users to login and to logoutusing their native language via keyboard. But it is alsopossible to login using a chip card where name, domainand password is saved in encrypted form. Language- and environment settings(Domain / Workgroup) Login device: Keyboard/ Chip card Reader / other devicesSIMATIC Logon supports a plant wide user managementand protects against unauthorized data manipulations.

Efficient graphics systemThe modern graphics system of WinCC supports the workof a project engineer as well by the use of standardizedpreconfigured picture components as when creating userdefinable picture components and faceplates. The use ofthese components enables the project developer to createhis own at any time reusable company specific projectstandards which results in a much shorter Time-to- Marketfor the project.Global settings which can be done in the graphics systemenable the project engineers to implement once definedcompany standards in a WinCC project and to apply thesetimesaving to all picture objects which have the sameattributes. It is also possible to export these settings andto import them again to any other WinCC project.Efficiency in EngineeringAdded ValueOn one hand this possibility supports the in-house standardizing in an efficient way and on the other hand it provides the opportunity that several project engineers canwork on huge applications simultaneously in accordancewith the company standards. When creating images it isof course possible to do Direct2D (soft shadows) and tointegrate SVG – files.Instead of using discrete colors the color palette is working with color indexes. This enables the user to realizecustomer-specific designs in a very simple way. If forexample a customer wants to change the color from redto orange he only has to assign the color orange to theindex for the color red. While changing this, the color ofall red objects having the same index changes to orange.Efficiency in RuntimeScalabilityPackagesApplying modular design makes it simple to create andto centrally manage custom specific faceplates. Changesare automatically applied to all points where the faceplateis utilized. For example efficient operation is possible bythe use of application specific menus and toolbars. It ispossible as usual in Windows to either fix them or to leavethem movable.The project engineers are able to adapt the Menus andToolbars to their individual needs by using the integrated‘Menus and Toolbars Editor‘. This makes configuring evenmore efficient.Libraries and wizards accelerate make the setup ofprojects easier. Therefore they reduce the error ratedramatically.InnovationWinCC OptionsOpennessOperating systems andhardware requirementsi
