\n\t\t

The WinCC agent accepts messages from the process control system SIMATIC WinCC V7\/V8<\/a> and directs you to the Alarm Control Center<\/a> further. The agent enables you to react quickly and flexibly to reports.<\/p>\n

It supports two modes: Configuration of the messages via the WinCC Alarm Logging<\/strong> and the Using the ACC Control for WinCC V7\/8<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The ACC also supports the connection of redundant WinCC systems. More information can be found at Reliability<\/a>.<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/span>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>

Configuration of the message via the WinCC Alarm Logging<\/span><\/h3>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/span>\n
\n\t
\n\t\t

In this mode, the WinCC agent directly uses the WinCC Alarm Logging and the messages configured in it.<\/p>\n

The configuration of which user text blocks the message text should consist of can be freely selected. Only one additional text block is required in the Alarm Logging of WinCC to specify the alarm group, i.e. the group of recipients. Once this has been done, the agent can already react to alarms from WinCC, compile the message text from various user text blocks and send the message to the previously defined alarm group. With the agent for WinCC, of course, you can also Email Alert<\/a>, one push message<\/a> or a SMS alert<\/a> to be executed.<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>

The agent in use with the ACC Control for WinCC<\/span><\/h3>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/span>\n
\n\t
\n\t\t

The ACC Control enables the alarms to be configured quickly and conveniently directly in the WinCC Graphics Runtime.<\/p>\n

Through the integration of the ACC Control in the WinCC Graphics Runtime, the usual graphical user interface of the WinCC is combined with the functionality of the ACC Control.<\/p>\n

Changes or adjustments in the WinCC Alarm Logging are superfluous thanks to the integration of the Alarm Control Center functionality in your WinCC picture. The employees in the control room can react comfortably and flexibly to certain system states and avoid unnecessary alarms.<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/span>

React conveniently and flexibly to system statuses<\/h4>\n

Configure alarms directly and search for messages in a targeted manner: A flexible search and filter function offers greater clarity. The search and filter function searches through all messages that are configured in WinCC and simplifies the configuration of the alarm. For example, you can filter for messages from a specific sub-aggregate and then assign an alarm group from the existing alarm groups to these with just a few clicks.<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>
