Migrating HMI projects
3.1 Migrating projects
Additional information
For additional information concerning the migration of projects from WinCC flexible, read the
following information:
● Information system of the TIA Portal, section "Migrating projects and programs >
Migrating projects in a TIA Portal project > Migrating WinCC flexible projects (Advanced)".
● FAQ WinCC (TIA portal) -- working with projects -- migrating projects
(http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/54702181).
Special features for SINUMERIK projects
The following HMI devices with SINUMERIK components can be migrated:
● SINUMERIK PCs and SIMATIC Panel PCs
● SIMATIC Panel
SINUMERIK PCs and SIMATIC Panel PCs
The following must be observed when migrating SINUMERIK projects:
● In the TIA Portal, you configure the PC system (e.g. PCU 50.5) instead of the operator
panel. This is changed automatically during the migration. You enter the screen
resolution of the operator panel front in the runtime settings (Page 51).
● The input controls specific to HMI Advanced are not transferred.
● HMI controls for file management and NC editor are not supported.
● Integration in the m:n concept is not supported.
● The communication driver for the PLC-channel SINUMERIK PLC is switched over to the
SIMATIC S7-300/400 communication driver.
● Automatic display of DB2 alarms is not supported.
Import the DB2 alarms separately to the TIA Portal (Page 97).
For this, you need to add a SINUMERIK NCU or device proxy with a STEP 7 V5.x project
as the data sources (Page 57).
● GUD tags are not automatically associated with the migration.
Connect migrated GUD tags again after the migration. (Page 39)
● Multidimensional GUD arrays are not used in the TIA Portal even with PC systems (as in
WinCC flexible for CE HMI devices).
Linearize multidimensional GUD arrays or create new ones (Page 76).
● To use PLC tags from your STEP 7 V5.x project, you must either add a device-proxy or
convert the tags with the WinCC TagConverter.
See: Configure PLC variables symbolically (Page 38)
SIMATIC Panel
● SIMATIC panels as of version 13.0.0.0 support the SINUMERIK parameter indexing
method and must no longer contain the parameter number incremented by 1.
If you configure a SIMATIC Panel as of version 13.0.0.0, adjust the configuration of the R
parameters (Page 36).
