Function
• Displaying and modifying process parameters
• Process display:
-
TP 270 6“:
QVGA resolution (320 x 240 pixels),
TP 270 10“:
VGA resolution (640 x 480 pixels)
with 256 colors for display elements
- Vector graphics (various line-drawn and solid objects)
- Dynamic positioning and dynamic showing/hiding of objects
- Pixel graphics displays, curves and bar displays
- Presentation of up to 8 curves in a curve field;
curve graphics with scroll and zoom functions for accessing
historical values and for flexible selection of the displayed
time frame;
cross-hair for reading off current values and display in a table
- Comprehensive image libraries (SIMATIC HMI
Symbol Library)
- Graphics objects: Slider, gauge, clock
- Cyclic function processing using timers
• Multiplex function for variables
• Message system
- administration of status, fault and system messages
- Status and fault messages with message history
- Preconfigured message display, message window and mes-
sage line
• Archiving of messages and process values (on CF Card,
optionally over Ethernet)
- Different archive types: short-term archive and sequence
archive
- Storage of archive data in standard Windows format (CSV)
- Online evaluation of process value archives through curves
- External evaluation using standard tools (MS Excel and
MS Access) is possible
• Message log and shift log
• Print functions (see "recommended printers")
• Language selection
5 online languages, 32 configuration languages incl. Asiatic
and Cyrillic character sets
• Password protection with 10 levels
• Recipe management
- With additional data storage (on CF Card)
- Online/offline processing at the panel
- Storage of recipe data in standard Windows format (CSV)
- External processing using standard tools MS Excel and
MS Access is possible
• PG functions STATUS/CONTROL VAR in combination with
SIMATIC S5 and SIMATIC S7
• Display selection from the PLC
supports operator prompting from the PLC
• Visual Basic Script, flexibility through the implementation of
new functions including linking to ProTool variables (compari-
son operations, loops, etc.)
• Help texts
for process diagrams, messages and variables
• Mathematical functions
• Limit value monitoring
for reliable process control of inputs and outputs
• Permanent window;
permanent display area for the output of information that is not
specific to the particular display (e.g. important process vari-
ables, date and time)
• Simple maintenance and configuration through
- Backup and restoring the configuration, operating system,
data records and firmware on the optional CF Card (Compact
Flash Card) or optionally over Ethernet
- Backup and restoring the configuration, operating system,
data records and firmware on a PC using ProSave
- Configuration download/upload over
USB/MPI/PROFIBUS DP/RS 232/Ethernet (optional)/modem
and CF Card (optional)
- Automatic transfer identification
- Individual contrast settings
- Configuration simulation directly on the configuration com-
puter
• Import/export of all texts including messages in CSV format for
translation using standard word processing programs
Additional functions when configuring with WinCC flexible
• Project-specific picture blocks that can be modified centrally
• Message system
- Bit messages and analog messages (limit value messages)
as well as the Alarm S message frame procedure for SIMATIC
S7 and SIMOTION
- Freely-definable message classes (e.g. status/fault mes-
sages) for definition of acknowledgment response and dis-
play of message events
• Language selection:
- Language-dependent texts and graphics
• Permanent window expanded by template concept;
- generation of screen templates
• User administration (security)
- User-oriented access protection according to requirements
of specific sectors
- Authentication by means of user ID and password
- Privileges specific to user groups
• Visual Basic Runtime object model
• Service functions
(optionally with "WinCC flexible/Sm@rtService")
- E-mail generation
- Remote operation of the SIMATIC HMI system based on
Internet explorer
- Web server with status HTML pages and control functions
• Client/server functions
(optionally with "WinCC flexible /Sm@rtAccess")
- Remote operation and monitoring of other SIMATIC HMI
systems
- Plant-wide scanning of information and archiving of process
data
