If you are opening WinCC for the first time, a dialog box will offer you three options
for creating a project:
• Create a "Single-User Project" (default selection)
• Create a "Multi-User Project"
• Create a "Client Project"
• "Open an existing Project"
Creating the "Qckstart" Project:
Select "Single-User Project" and click on "OK".
Enter "Qckstart" as the project name and select a project path. You can
rename the subfolder if necessary, otherwise it will be given the project name.
If you want to open an existing project, the displayed "Open" dialog box will allow
you to search for ".mcp" files. The next time WinCC is started, the last project
worked on will automatically be opened. If the project was activated when WinCC
was exited, it will be reopened in the activated state.
The WinCC Explorer is shown in Illustration 2.2 (the dialog window may vary
slightly from the illustration depending on the configuration).
