Overview
The SIMATIC Basic Panel, Comfort Panel and Mobile Panel offer
HMI functionality for the control systems:
•
SIMATIC S7
•
Non-Siemens controllers:
- Allen Bradley
- Mitsubishi
- Modicon
- Omron
For more detailed information, refer to the WinCC (TIA Portal)
user manual, the "Windows-based systems communication"
manual, or the WinCC (TIA Portal) online help.
OPC communication and HTTP communication are offered for all
Panels with an integrated Ethernet interface. Both OPC and
HTTP communication can be used in parallel with the process
links to SIMATIC S7 or non-Siemens PLCs.
1) For the sake of simplicity, SIMATIC Panel is always used in the text
below. This is not restrictive, as the information is valid for all systems
referred to above. If there are constraints, direct reference is made to
them in the text.
Note:
Interface options for HMI devices: See the individual device
descriptions.
OPC communication
OPC Data Access is an open standard for exchanging both local
and remote variables between various applications via Industrial
Ethernet.
HTTP communication for variable exchange between
SIMATIC HMI systems
Communication based on HTTP message frames enables
variables to be exchanged between SIMATIC HMI systems.
