Integration of the engineering software Individual engineering systems

• Stand-alone software packages are limited in terms of
their consistency and integration.
• To achieve full integration and consistency of individual
products, a single work environment – an engineering
framework – is needed.

Integration of the engineering software

• Uniform operating concept for the same functions in all Embedded into one framework
automation tasks (e.g. configuration, communication,
diagnostics).
• Automatic data and project consistency.
• Powerful libraries for all automation objects.
