We are designing a project with one WinCCFlex Runtime-PC and two TP177B communicated by ethernet to several controllers. We want to edit/download recipes on the Runtime-PC, but also have the ability so select and download (not editing) the same recipes on the TPs. Is there a way to coordinate recipes between the Runtime-PC and the TPs? or Could the TPs instruct the Runtime-PC to download certain recipe to a speciffic controller? Thanks!

Is this "Recipe-Server" feature included in WinCC Flexible Runtime (for PC) or do we have to purchase the "Recipes" Add-On Options for WinCC Flexible? Is the Import/Export procedure of recipes performed through the same Ethernet network where the two TPs and the Runtime-PC will be connected? Regards.

Dear Sparrow, the TP177B support recipes without optional Add-On. My idea is, to export and import recipes (funtion is already included in panel) onto an existing net-path via UNC. (i.e. \\MyServer\Recipes). The path for all panels must be the same. So panel 1 do export recipes that will be imported from panel 2 and vice versa. It works pretty good with WinCCflex RT on PC and should work also with a TP177B. If it is possible with an TP177A, I am not sure. "the same Ethernet network where the two TPs and the Runtime-PC will be connected?" Yes. Best regards Jürgen.

Perhaps this link is useful: WinCC flexible: Engineering with Recipes Using Integrated Functionalities When you use WinCC flexible RT, you will need additional licence when using recipes!! Best regards, Wizard
