SIPART device driver WinCC

WinCC functions

WinCC provides powerful function packages for visualization, message processing, archiving of measured values and user data, and for logging.

With its versatile connection possibilities (bus systems and serial), WinCC also supports the simultaneous operation of SIMATIC and SIPART DR.

WinCC is available as a software package or as a system (OP or PC with completely installed software, complete or runtime versions) and is offered in various performance and price classes with different options. You can obtain technical information and ordering data on WinCC from your SIMATIC contact (see also Catalog ST 80).

Application

The SIPART device driver WinCC permits incorporation of the SIPART DR controllers into WinCC. WinCC then has access to all device data of the various SIPART DR controllers for operation and monitoring.

The data to be visualized, operated and logged are defined by configuring. The configuring of WinCC for SIPART DR is particularly simple by using "Standards" (pre-configured and documented display blocks for each type of controller). Modifications during the test and commissioning phase present no problem as a result of online configuring.

WinCC is connected to the DR19, DR20, DR21, DR22 and DR24 compact controllers via the device driver for SIPART DR (channel DLL). WinCC supports up to 4 SIPART buses with max. 32 process controllers each.
