WinCC/IndustrialX
Using only the basic functions, you can configure SIMATIC
WinCC in a user-friendly way. WinCC/IndustrialX is an option
that further simplifies the solving of a visualization task by
standardization of user-specific objects.
No separate display object is required any more for each
motor, pump, valve, etc., instead objects of the same type
are standardized. Engineering become more cost-efficient, if
functions and displays can be used repeatedly
Key Benefits
- Easy creation using confi guration wizards
- Fast-track starting due to the use of standards: ActiveX
technology, creation using Visual Basic
- Central creation and modifi cation of object representations
of the same type (type-coding) saves you time
and money
- Confi guration of intelligent, vertical market and
technology-specifi c objects (graphic representation and
logical processing) with expertise protection
- Can be used on a diverse basis: in WinCC pictures and
other Windows applications (e.g. Internet Explorer,
Excel)

IndustrialX employs the ActiveX technology for the process
visualization. Configuration wizards make the creation
of your own standard displays easy. IndustrialX controls
are flexible and can be tailored to meet the requirements
of the most varied applications, for example specific for
applications in the chemical, glass or paper manufacturing
industries. IndustrialX offers code templates for easy linking customerspecific ActiveX controls to WinCC data sources that are
themselves suitable for use on Web Navigator clients.
Quick and easy to configure
Using the IndustrialX Control Designer, you create one IndustrialX
control for process objects of the same type, e.g. for
several motors. Linking is carried out of the individual data of
a data record e.g. the target value, actual value, temperature
and operating mode. Once you have created the IndustrialX
control, you can integrate it into pictures as often as you like.
At integration, you only need to specify the name of the data
record. At runtime, each integration of the IndustrialX Control
then automatically works with the data of the assigned
data record. Each time the IndustrialX Control is used, you do
not need to spend time and effort on linking the individual
data.
Carry out modifications on a central basis
If you have a lot of IndustrialX Controls, which
are already integrated in process pictures, you can
easily change them later. Such changes are made once at a
central location and can affect the graphic representation
as well as the processing logic. All the changes affect all
the IndustrialX controls in all the process pictures that have
already been confi gured. If, for example, there are 47 motors
of the same type in a plant that are visualized in 13 different
process pictures using IndustrialX controls, you only need to
make the changes once at a central location. These changes
are then effective everywhere. This obviates the need to
carry out time-consuming, errorprone changes at 47 different
locations!
Rapid processing, know-how protected
IndustrialX controls are composed of compiled Visual Basic
code that guarantees fast, effective processing. The technological
know-how that you invested in creating your controls
can - if necessary - be protected from copying if the source
code is not supplied.
