Main objective: Becoming acquainted to and use of a current visualization software close to industry Learning objectives: Practical operation of the visualization software - Statement of configurations - Statement of variables for communication with the process - Generation of an image of the installation with available tools and symbols - Testing mode, combined with a Programmable Logic Controller

2 Introduction
2.1 Overview of visualization software SIMATIC WinCC
WinCC (Windows Control Center) by Siemens is a programming software solving visualization tasks concerning operator-process monitoring and control in the production and process automation. It provides industry suitable function units for graphic representation, alarming, archiving and protocolling. The operating systems MS Windows 95/98 or MS Windows NT serve as platform for WinCC. The system design of the Control Center: Control Center Explorer: within the Control Center Data Manager: supplies the process image with tag values and procures data from the automation systems (receive, request). Function units Graphic system (Graphics Designer): graphic representation and process interfacing Action processing (Global Scripts): Dynamizing of the project to user specific requirements Alarming system (Alarm Logging) Archiving and processing of measured values (Tag Logging) Report system (Report Designer) The documentation for WinCC is very extensive. Therefore it is recommended to run the interactive learning programm by selecting the menue command "Tutorial" before beginning a new project. During this program, the operation of WinCC is completely worked through by means of an example. To make setting up and editing a project easier, a pattern Procedure for design, configuration and generation of an image of the coin plant as well as Procedure for the input of the object properties were designed.

3 Hard- and Software

The execution of the visualization requires the following hard- and software components: a) Programmable Logic Controller S7-300 with components: - mounting channel as a mounting rack - Power supply module PS 3075A (6ES7-307-1EA00-0AA0) - Central processing unit CPU 315-2DP (6ES7-315-2AF03-0AB0) - Digital input module 16xDC 24V (6ES7-321-1BH01-0AA0) - Digital output module 16xDC 24V, 0.5A (6ES7-322-1BH01-0AA0) b) MPI interface cable for the connection CPU / PC c) PC with a minimum configuration: Pentium processor, Windows 95/98/NT, 32MB RAM, hard disc 3 GB, CD-ROM drive, color display d) Software SIMATIC WinCC

By using the object palette, style palette, Dynamic Wizard, as well as the library in the toolbar, the image of the coin plant and the text fields are created. (see 6: Pattern for the graphical representation of the process). Afterwards, properties of all objects are defined. (see 8: Procedure for the input of the object properties)

Problem description of a coin plant

5.1 Technology schematics

5.2 Problem description

The cylinder of valve 1 pushes the work piece from the magazin (position switch S0 is operated) to the pressing place and moves back when position switch S2 is not operated. Afterwards the cylinder of the coinstamp should extend (valve 2) until position switch S3 is operated. When the position switch operates, the cylinder should run in again. Further the work piece should be raised up by the cylinder of valve 3, S2=0. In 3 seconds valve 4 should open to blow an airstream at the coin and move it over the slope to the catching reservoir. On the way the coin passes a light barrier LI, which switches off valves 3 and 4. The procedure can repeat itself after a 4 seconds pause, when the precondition for the home position is fulfilled (end switch S0, S1 and LI are closed, S2 and S3 are opened).
