Hello everyone,

I am using Tia portal as of v13 and it is really useful as an integrated platfom.

Although some companies continue to use the old wincc versions(7.x), I prefer to use the wincc version under the roof of tia portal.

In the ongoing process from v13 to this time, I waited, hoping that "Basic Process Control" would come out, but when I switch to v17, I see that "Basic Process Control" is still not present. "Basic Process Control" available in old Wincc versions from Wincc 7.0

Although it is said that all features in old Wincc versions will be under Tia Portal platform, this important feature is still missing

I request from Siemens to find a solution for this important feature.

Thanks for reading, best regards

Hi desertfoxx,

WinCC Professional does not support all the features of WinCC V7 - and probably never will. From my point of view, Siemens is focusing on WinCC Unified, where functionality is increasing from version to version.

To request a specific feature from Siemens, you should contact your local Siemens sales representative. This forum is hosted by Siemens, but mainly used by volunteers.

Kind regards
Stefan

I thought that is where this was going....

Hi Stefan Arcularius,

From the first release of Tia Portal Siemens guarantee WinCC Professional of Tia Portal support all the features of WinCC V7. After release of V17 i lost my hope. Also you emphasize Siemens will focus on WinCC Unified in the future

Thank you for your answer, now i will think about switching to WinCC 7.5 version from Tia Portal WinCC.

Hi desertfoxx,

From the first release of Tia Portal Siemens guarantee WinCC Professional of Tia Portal support all the features of WinCC V7.

I have never heard or read some guarantee, it sounds more like a marketing information than a technical specification.

Kind regards
Stefan

Hi Stefan Arcularius,,

As you said it is not technical information and it is not published by Siemens. I regret not continuing with version 7.x. thanks for your concern

Best regards

Hi desertfoxx,

here in the forum you will find a lot of understanding for your concern and dissatisfaction, but it will not help you much. Once again, I can only advise you to contact the sales department with your concern. There they can forward your concern to the person responsible for the product.

Kind regards
Stefan
