SIMATIC Panels
SIMATIC Panels have been proving their value in many dif-
ferent applications in all industrial sectors for many years
now. Their innovative power is undiminished here. The
most recent example of this are the SIMATIC HMI Comfort
Panels for demanding visualization tasks. These new oper-
ator panels do not only have an innovative design and
provide high performance. The configuration via SIMATIC
WinCC V11 is unique. The software is part of the new
Engineering Framework “Totally Integrated Automation
Portal” and provides previously unheard of energy
efficiency.
Integrated functionality across all display sizes
The portfolio of the SIMATIC Panels is clearly structured:
Two families of devices cover the majority of HMI applica-
tions:
■
SIMATIC HMI Basic Panels are suitable for simple HMI
applications.
■
SIMATIC HMI Comfort Panels are suitable for complex
applications.
The functionality of the hardware is identical within a
family of devices. You select the optimal display size for
your application and decide whether to operate it via
touch screen and/or keys.
The software is scalable for optimally adapting your HMI
or SCADA solution to your respective automation task.
This has the advantage that you can start out small but
are able to increase the number of tags, for example, at
any time and without problems.
SIMATIC HMI Key Panels – The innovative operator
panels
They are pre-assembled and ready-to-install. In this way,
time-consuming individual assembly and wiring, as re-
quired for conventional operator panels, is not necessary.
Compared to conventional wiring, this results in time
savings of up to 60%.
Mobile operator control and monitoring – wireless and
with complete safety functionality
For plants that are very extensive or are difficult to observe
visually, portable operator panels bring important advan-
tages: The commissioning engineers, machine operators
or service employees are able to work exactly where they
have the best view of the workpiece or process.
SIMATIC HMI Mobile Panels can be wired or wireless. Com-
plete safety functionality via IWLAN, which was previously
only available for SIMATIC HMI Mobile Panels.
Unique energy efficiency
SIMATIC Panels can be intuitively configured with SIMATIC
WinCC V11. Increased energy efficiency can be achieved by
integrating WinCC V11 into the Totally Integrated Automa-
tion Portal, the shared Engineering Framework for Totally
Integrated Automation, if additional Totally Integrated
Automation components such as SIMATIC Controllers are
used. The perfect interaction with STEP 7 prevents multiple
entries and guarantees consistent data management at
all times.
