WinCC/User Archives
Managing data sets

The WinCC/User Archives option allows the application of User Archives, in which related data is stored in data records. WinCC and its automation partners (e.g. a SIMATIC S7 PLC) can write to these data records and exchange them among one another if required.

An operator, for example, can input parameter records in WinCC, store them in the User Archive and forward them to the automation level if required. Vice versa, a PLC can continuously acquire production parameters during a shift and transmit them to WinCC at the end of the shift. Other applications include the acquisition of batch data, the specification of production parameters and the control of inventory data.

WinCC User Archives are conveniently created and preset with data using a separate editor. Special ActiveX Controls are used to display data from User Archives in runtime.
