The HMI device in the operating process
The HMI device is part a technical process. The following two phases are key to the way the
HMI device is integrated in the process:
●
Configuration
●
Process management
Configuration
During the configuration phase, you create the user interfaces for operating and monitoring
of the technical process on a configuration PC with WinCC. Project design comprises:
●
Creating project data
●
Saving project data
●
Testing project data
●
Simulating project data
Transfer
After compiling the configuration, you download the project to the HMI device.
Process management
Process management is marked by two-way communication between HMI device and
controller.
You then use the HMI device to operate and monitor the process.
