One common project


 Secure communication through https
… stored centrally on a multiuser server  Central administration of all common projects
and flexible reachable

For HMI and PLC  Supports PLC objects


…enables block-oriented work  Supports HMI objects

 Marking of the edited object


System-based synchronization
 System-based synchronization of the marked
… reduces the coordination investment objects
in the team  History and restore of the project revisions

Offline jobs

Function
• Offline Engineering
• Automatic switching between the online and offline
jobs
• Automatic synchronisation of the flags when the
server is available again

Customer advantages
• Multiuser Engineering also possible without active
connection to the server
• Improvement of the ergonomic and engineering not
relying on the location

Advanced project management

Project management
• No restriction of number of project revisions that can
be stored in the circular log
• Rollback of saved versions
• Project revisions can be archived and are thus
excluded from the circular log Project versions that can be
stored
 Project milestones can be selected in this way
(commissioning start, machine transfer, functional
expansions, ...) No limitation for Version comments can be
the circular log added at any time
