Key features
Features of VipWin Version 6.01
Automatic Projecting
Intelligent wizards can handle recur-
ring tasks on their own. Because of
the short training period you can
concentrate on the really important
things.
Object-oriented Parameterisation
Even complex objects have to be
defined only once, changed properties
are inherited quickly and without
errors.
License Information
VipWin licenses are restricted in
the number of useable process
variables. The table on the right
can be used to determine the
required license:
Example
Let’s assume, you have 256 digital
and 40 analogue values which you
want to visualise in VipWin. Divide the
256 digital I/O’s by 16, which equals
16 variables. Add these to the 40 ana-
logue values. As a result you receive
56 variables, which represents the
basis for selecting the license size.
Ordering
VipWin is a modular product and can
be easily configured to your individual
needs.
2007/10 – Subject to change – Products 2008
Efficient Reusability
Follow-up projects can be created in
the twinkling of an eye. Enormous
timesaving because of smart import/
export features for parts of projects or
entire projects.
International Language Switching
Full Unicode integration allows font
and language change in Editor and
Runtime.
Data Type
1 bit
1 word
1 string (max. 64 characters)
The following order is derived from
this among other things:
With development environment:
VW-K-64 VipWin 64K Complete
package 64 Var, 1024 I/O’s
Runtime only:
VW-R-64 VipWin 64R Runtime
package, 64 Var, 1024 I/O’s
Notes on configuration:
 4 / 7.1-42 for new VipWin / OPC
EasyServer configurations
 4 / 7.1-43 for VipWin upgrades
and enhancements.
Modular products:
 4 / 7.1-44 for new VipWin / OPC
EasyServer configurations
 4 / 7.1-46 for VipWin upgrades
and enhancements.
Elegant Networking
Decentralization and direct access to
sub-projects is standard in VipWin.
Fast reaction times with a low band-
width requirement minimize the
maintenance effort considerably.
Runtime Redundancy
Fully integrated redundancy features
allows building of redundant configur-
ations by simply activating a
checkbox.
Example (FST)
Input, Output, Flag
Flag-Word, Register
String
Software Protection
VipWin is delivered with a security
adapter (hard lock). This adapter has
to be plugged into an USB port of the
PC VipWin is running on. Additionally
serial number and activation code
have to be entered during installation
or into the Editor.
-H- Note
Data types available are related to
the drivers used. To determine the
license size the process variables
(I/O’s) of the following drivers are
involved:
– PLC and bus driver
OPC Support
On the one hand VipWin is able to
communicate with OPC servers, on the
other hand, VipWin can act as an OPC
Server and distribute all data via this
standard interface
Electronic control systems
Front End Controllers
Valence
1 I/O or 1/16 Variable 7.1
16 I/O’s or 1 Variable
16 I/O’s or 1 Variable
Without security adapter and/or
correct serial number and activation
code VipWin is running in DEMO-
mode, which means that VipWin
programmes are terminating after
30 minutes with a prompt for saving
data.
Internal process variables of the
drivers
– system driver
– mathematics driver and
– simulator driver
are not counted.
