SITRAIN
Basic Software The "WinCC" system software (core blocks with the basic functions), is scaled
through various licenses.
RT Licenses RT licenses entitle the user to use WinCC in runtime mode for an unlimited
amount of time. The use of editors is only possible in demo mode for a limited
time.
RC Licenses RT licenses entitle the user to use WinCC in runtime mode and configuration
mode for an unlimited amount of time.
Archive Tags 512 archive tags are included in the basic system, others up to 120,000 optional.
Power Pack The number of tags is upgraded with the power packs. The cost is the price
difference between the respective WinCC software packages for Configuration
and Runtime software. The number of archive tags can be increased by means of
Power Packs.
Options The basic software can be expanded through options.
- User archives (User Archives for batch recipes, for example).
- Additional PLC drivers.
- Server - Client (Multi-user system).
- ODK (Open Development Kit) for C programming.
- etc.
On the Internet under http://www.siemens.com/wincc, you can find the currently
offered options from the head office in Nuremberg-Moorenbrunn. ODK questions
see
FAQ 9652 128
Add-ons The basic software can be expanded through add-ons.
Customer-specific or technological extensions that use the sector-independent
WinCC software, for example, PM-MAINT maintenance program, PM-Aqua etc.
On the Internet under http://www.siemens.com/wincc, you can find the currently
offered add-ons from the Competence Centers Erlangen, Mannheim, Stuttgart,
and contacts.

or any other data storage medium
No DEFRAG can be performed after the licenses have been installed, since the licenses
could thereby be lost. Each WinCC Version has its own authorization.
SITRAIN
License and demo mode

The WinCC software is enabled by means of the supplied authorization (key disk).
Without a license, the user can configure in demo mode for one hour. After one
hour, the WinCC Explorer and editors are closed. After restarting an editor, the
system prompts you every 10 minutes to purchase a valid license. WinCC also
switches to demo mode if the maximum number of licensed power tags or archive
tags in a project is exceeded in a project. When you install a license, it is
transferred to a local drive and provided on the memory medium so that WinCC
can use this license. Cumulating more than one license per component requiring a
license is only possible for archive licenses. Other licenses cannot be cumulated.
Installation During the transfer of usage rights from the key stick to the PC, the installation
counter on the key stick is decremented.
Note No DEFRAG can be performed after the licenses have been installed, since the
licenses could thereby be lost.
De-Installation By transferring the usage rights from the PC back to the key stick, or any other
type of data storage medium, you can use the preparation for a renewed transfer
to another PC.
Virus scan Virus tests (scans) can only be carried out with proven virus programs while in
running operation. See FAQ 241 220 09.
Note The use of WinCC in process mode without valid licenses is not permissible.
Neither the name nor attributes of the folder "AX NF ZZ" must be changed,
otherwise the transferred license keys might be lost irrevocably.

- Extensive visualization tasks can be combined using multi-user systems.
- Distributed systems employ the technological distribution of a system or the

functional distribution to several WinCC computers.
- A Server takes over process coupling.
- All other clients are connected to a server using a PC network.
- The clients receive all data from the server.
- Even higher-order computers of the management level can access the

WinCC database at any time using the terminal bus.
- The SIMATIC Industrial Ethernet process bus can also be used as a

terminal bus for industrial applications in a harsh environment.

operate.
Compatibility V7 FAQ 2192 7773

Microsoft Windows hotfixes and security patches can be installed. The installation
of operating system service packs is not permitted; their use in combination with
SIMATIC WinCC requires an explicit release.

SITRAIN
Multi-user System
The Server Client configuration makes it possible to have up to 32 operator
stations linked to one Server. The configuration of the Server can be made by the
Client.
Redundancy Server
When you operate two WinCC stations in parallel, an archive adjustment is
automatically made at runtime or after the failure of a Server.
The automatic switching of a Client to the active Server guarantees the continuous
process execution and operation.
Note Number of Clients for Server with operator station: 4

Number of Clients for Server without operator station: 32
For the Clients, the same operating system must be used. However, different
operating systems can be used for Server and Clients. Clients without their own
project must not be operated on a computer with Windows Server 2003.

Web Navigator Client or DataMonitor Client (no license)
Thin Client (Web)

Based on the terminal service of Windows 2003, Thin Client solutions are possible
on different hardware platforms. This is true for clients positioned near the
machine that are based on the real-time operating system Windows CE 3.0, as
well as Linux and Unix clients. The Microsoft terminal server can only be used in
conjunction with the WinCC WebNavigator.

Architecture This slide displays the relationships of the individual modules within the WinCC
Explorer.
WinCC Explorer The WinCC Explorer combines all the data necessary for operating a single-user
or multi-user system and ensures hierarchically-ordered storage.
System Controller The system controller takes care of system communication between the stations.
For multi-user systems, the system controller also provides the network-wide
project view, as well as communication between the client and server. The system
controller also handles coordination through the terminal bus.
Data Manager The data manager is the start-up location for processing central tasks in a WinCC
project. The data manager exists on every station and works closely together with
the system controller. The main task is handling tag management. The
communication channels are used to access process data.
Function Modules - Graphics Designer (graphics system)
Graphic display and process connection
- Global scripts (script editing)
Making the project dynamic to user-specific requirements
- Alarm logging (message system)
Displaying messages and acknowledgements
- Tag logging (measured value archiving, processing and trending)
Processing measured values and their long-term storage
Processing user-oriented data and their long-term storage
- Report designer (report system)
Reporting system states
Note The WinCC Explorer enables you to navigate through the WinCC applications and
their data with few operations. From its appearance and operation, the WinCC
Explorer is similar to the Explorer in Windows.

Openness This slide illustrates all system modules with opened interfaces.
You can use your own programs with Windows applications, as well as data and
functions from WinCC here.
User programs can also be started from WinCC.
Applications that run under Windows, such as Excel, Word, or Access can be
combined freely with WinCC and individual user programs.
This also makes solutions to unusual management level tasks possible.
User Routines User routines run interpretively in WinCC. That is, a compiler is not necessary. If
an application requires many, extensive user routines with a high processing
capacity, standard tools (e.g. C++) can compile these routines, and they can be
attached to the WinCC sequence.
OPC OPC (OLE for Process Control) integrated Client/Server communication interface.
WinCC supports - OPC DA 3.0-Server (Data Access) contained in the basic system
Connectivity Pack option with :
- OPC A&E 1.10 Server (Alarm & Events)
- OPC HDA 1.20 (Historical Data Access)
- WinCC OLE-DB
As OPC XML DA 1.01 Server, WinCC can make data available even via the Web
PPS/MES systems and vice versa as OPC XML DA Client it can accept task and
recipe data.
