SIMATIC HMI Software

Basic HMI is recommended for simple applications with a limited quantity scale and where the price-performance ratio is important in addition to a fast and intuitive operation.
Devices can be easily configured using the WinCC Basic Engineering Software, a budget priced subset of WinCC (TIA Portal).
Ofcourse you can use the more sophisticated variants of WinCC ES (TIA Portal) as well.
With SIMATIC HMI operator devices, the runtime software is on-board and, depending on the equipments hardware, this gives you different HMI functionality and performance profiles.

If you are looking for a panel-based solution for more demanding applications with larger quantity scales, make a decision for Advanced HMI.

The user benefits from excellent functionality and a wide range of devices and applications, with key or touch operation. Both stationary and mobile solutions are available.

The Panels can be coveniently configured by employing WinCC Comfort (TIA Portal) or higher with a Runtime Module already pre-installed on the device.

If production places particularly high demands on the quantity and type of information that must be processed and documented, a PC-based system is recommended. It offers the appropriate options for sufficient storage space, processing power, and data connectivity.

Use WinCC Advanced (TIA Portal) Engineering Software and the separate Runtime Software Packages WinCC Advanced (TIA Portal) Runtime for PC-based machine level HMI.

With WinCC Professional, Siemens offers a SCADA system which is perfectly integrated in the TIA Portal and with which you are optimally prepared today for the requirements of the increasing digitalization of production processes. The PC-based operator control and monitoring system for visualization and operator control of processes, production flows, machines and plants in all sectors – from the simple single-user station through to distributed multi-user systems and cross-location solutions with web clients.
The sytems functionality can be further expanded by employing options for WinCC RT Professional or SCADA options.

With SIMATIC WinCC V7, you choose an innovative, scalable process-visualization system with numerous high-performance functions for monitoring automated processes. Whether in a single-user system or a distributed multi-user system with redundant servers, you will benefit from an open system that offers complete functionality for all industries and for highly complex visualization tasks and for SCADA applications, for example with redundant solutions and vertical integration extending up to plant intelligence solutions.
The sytems functionality can be further expanded by employing options and add-ons for WinC V7 or multi-platform SCADA options.
The SIMATIC SCADA systems and SIMATIC Industrial PCs together form a high-performance and reliable platform for the acquisition, evaluation, and visualization of data. The harmonized and certified total package of hardware and software offers the highest quality in all industries.

SIMATIC WinCC OA is designed for applications of large scale and high complexity as well as projects with special requirements on system prerequisites and customized functionality. With SIMATIC WinCC OA, you can build vendor- and platform-independent SCADA system that are scalable and offer unlimited global access over the web – even over native iOS and Android user interfaces.
