How to Configure WinCC Server And Client ?

Manual WinCC V6 Options

2.4 Server Configuration
Configuration steps
Configuring a multi-user system
In the case of a multi-user system, several clients are configured which display the view from one server in runtime. The clients receive data exclusively from one server and have no individual configuration.
Proceed as follows to configure a server in a multi-user system:
1. Create a new project, of the "Multi-User Project" type, on the server.
2. Configure the necessary project data (pictures, archives, tags...) on the server.
3. Clients which should be capable of remote configuration must be registered inthe computer list on the server.
4. Assign operating rights for the clients which should be capable of remote configuration.
5. Activate the automatic package import at the server.
6. Configure the clients in the server project

2.6.1 Starting Up the Server
Principle
Servers in a client-server system can be started up independently of the clients. As soon as a server has been started up, it makes its services available to the clients and retrieves information on all the participants in the network.The current status of all the servers can be viewed in the "WinCC Projects" data window. Open "WinCC-Projects" using the Windows Explorer

2.5 Client Configuration
Introduction
A client configuration is only necessary when a distributed system is configured inwhich the clients can display the views on several servers. If a multi-user system is configured in which the clients only display data from one server, no client configuration is necessary. The clients receive all the data and their runtime environment from the server project.

2.6.2 Starting Up the Client
Principle
The clients in a client-server system boot independently of the servers.When a client in a client-server system starts up, it receives all the current information on the following via the WinCC servers known to it in the network, e.g.:•
-Project names•
-Server names and IP addresses•
-Project status of the servers (configuration or runtime)
The user can view the corresponding information in the list in the "WinCC Projects"dialog. If the status of a server changes, the "WinCC Project" dialog of all the participating computers is updated.

hi dear.

the more important subject you must know, it is the user name and passwords between two or three Clint-Server should be same. and in Client project you should import server data on network connection from WinCC server.

okey...now you success

best...

Hi Everyone,

I am also new with this configuration of WinCC server and client. I have 1 server and 2 clients station (ethernet connections) to setup. However I temporarily installed the existing project to one of the 2 clients workstation and the system is already running. And then I notice that project property type is in "Single-User Project" setup, so right click on the OS project, general tab, I manually change the project type to "Multi-user project" as shown in the picture attached.

Can someone help me with this.

I don't know what is the proper procedure on this.

 Hello Rendezvous,

i would look on the Homepage of Siemens Online Support (https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/us/en/). There you can find all important information to your problem (Manuals, Applications e. g.). Type in the search field your WinCC Version.

With best Regards
