Wich HMI for TI505?

Hi everybody,

I'm looking for an HMI to communcate with a TI 505.

I hope there is a solution Under WinCC TIA Portal!

Thanks for your help.

Hello Osld13,

maybe this information could be helpful to you:

What steps are necessary to migrate a TI 505 controller to a PCS 7 OS project?

regards

Hello Eisenpferdreiter,

No, it's not a migration of TI505. My client doesn't want to migrate it for the moment. But the Ihm in place is nearly HS, and he wants to replace it. So i'm looking for a solution.

Thanks

Hello osld;

I do not believe there is a solution for WinCC in TIA Portal.

This is extracted from a WinCC v12 manual:

The SIMATIC 500/505 seriell communication driver is not supported by WinCC

and

The SIMATIC 500/505 Profibus-DP communicaion driver is not supported by WinCC.

There is a solution in WinCC Flexible:

WinCC Flexible 2008 Communications, Part1 

:http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/187975528.

1.1 Communication partner (SIMATIC 500/505)

Introduction

This section describes communication between HMI device and SIMATIC 500/505 controllers.With SIMATIC 500/505, the connections use protocols that are specific to the PLCs...

And of course you have many 3rd-party HMIs that can talk either serially or with Profibus to a Simatic 505: Maple systems, Red Lion G3 series, EZtouch,, Weinteck...

Hope this helps,

Thanks very much Dchartier,

Yes it's very clear. But there are no more actuals HMI Under WinCC flexible 2008. It'd need to buy an old HMI then...

Best regards.

There is a solution from Controltechnology Inc. who have a series of  HMI Panels that have drivers for TI505 over serial and ethernet as well as for CTI CPU's and many other brands of PLC's.

CTI 2500 Series HMI/SCADA systems
