WINCC RT SCADA – Tutorial 4 – Bottle Filling Simulation (TiaPortal V17)

Welcome to Tutorial 4 of WINCC RT SCADA! In this tutorial, we will be creating a bottle filling simulation using TiaPortal V17.

Step 1: Set up the PLC

First, you will need to set up your PLC in TiaPortal V17. Create a new project and add the necessary hardware configuration for your bottle filling simulation.

Step 2: Create the HMI project

Next, create a new HMI project in WinCC RT. Add a new screen and design the layout for your bottle filling simulation. You can add buttons, indicators, and input fields as needed.

Step 3: Configure communication

Once you have set up your PLC and HMI project, you will need to configure communication between the two systems. This can be done using the TIA Portal communication settings. Make sure to establish a reliable connection between the PLC and HMI.

Step 4: Program the bottle filling logic

Now, it’s time to program the bottle filling logic in your PLC. Define the variables and create the necessary logic to control the filling process. You can use timers, counters, and other functions to simulate the filling of bottles.

Step 5: Test and run the simulation

Finally, test and run the bottle filling simulation in WinCC RT. Monitor the process on the HMI screen and make any necessary adjustments to ensure smooth operation. This is a great way to practice your skills and learn more about SCADA systems.

That’s it for Tutorial 4 of WINCC RT SCADA – Bottle Filling Simulation. We hope you found this tutorial helpful and informative. Stay tuned for more tutorials and tips on SCADA systems!
