WinCC Faceplates

6.1

Introduction

Variants
The library contains two basic variants of the function blocks for faceplates:
● Comfort Panels and WinCC Runtime Advanced
● WinCC Runtime Professional
In addition to faceplates, UDTs for data connection of faceplates and SIMATIC STEP 7
blocks are also contained.
UDTs are different for the controller types:
● S7-1200
● S7-1500
● S7-300
● S7-400
Note
The WinCC UDTs are principally identical. However, when creating an HMI UDT, the
destination controller must be specified, which makes it subject to the controller types.
Navigation
Faceplates offer various views, these views can be switched through a two-layer navigation.
Primary navigation to individual information types is located at the top of the screen.
Secondary navigation towards individual SITOP PSU8600 modules is located on the left
hand side of the faceplate.
