With TIA Portal, users can increase their engineering efficiency<br />
by using a shared database and a standardized user<br />
interface. The engineering framework integrates all important<br />
automation components – from HMI to drives to motion<br />
control (see p. 7) and power distribution – including safety<br />
and security.<br />
TIA Portal offers a team-oriented, fully integrated tool<br />
landscape for efficient engineering. With the TIA Portal<br />
Multiuser Engineering option, multiple team members can<br />
work on a project at the same time. There are also many<br />
efficient diagnostic functions, such as cycle-granular signal<br />
recording, enabling the analysis of sporadic faults during<br />
commissioning. To create solutions even more quickly, users<br />
can take advantage of the automatic HMI visualization generator<br />
with Simatic Visualization Architect (SiVArc), for<br />
example. To automatically create programs, software generators<br />
can control TIA Portal by TIA Portal Openness interface.<br />
Duplicate work is avoided through the use of a comprehensive<br />
library system that guarantees easy reusability<br />
of all project objects.<br />
TIA Portal V14 ensures increased transparency during<br />
ongoing <strong>product</strong>ion. This transparency is possible thanks<br />
to additional diagnostic options. The standardized machine<br />
and plant diagnostics option Simatic ProDiag, for example,<br />
efficiently analyzes process disturbances. Rapid fault recognition<br />
in the automation system leads to fewer <strong>product</strong>ion<br />
outages and increases plant and machine availability.<br />
Additional interfaces for interaction with higher-level<br />
systems were created to optimize processes. With the<br />
Energy Manager PRO system, users now have full control<br />
over their energy costs at all times (see p. 8). The Simatic<br />
Information Server allows for target-group-specific on-site<br />
or mobile data processing.<br />
Merging the automation and corporate IT systems using<br />
open communication enables easy integration into higherlevel<br />
MES/ERP solutions via the standard OPC UA communications<br />
protocol or IndustrialDataBridge.<br />
