Motion Control System SIMOTION: Scout Winder Software

Hi everyone,
Can anyone tell me where can I find the winder application in the Scout? Do I need to buy it? Does it goes directly in the HMI? Where can I find the manual to use it?
We have the Scout V4.1.2.4, and the WinCC 3.0.0
Thank you

Winder Application in Scout & WinCC

Hello,

The Winder application (often referred to as the "Winder Function" or "Roll Manager") is typically an option package for WinCC, not directly within Scout. You likely need to purchase a license for it.

Here's a breakdown based on your versions:

  • Scout V4.1.2.4: Scout itself doesn’t contain the Winder application. It’s used for project creation and configuration that feeds into WinCC.
  • WinCC 3.0.0: This is where the Winder application resides. Confirm if you have the necessary license activated in WinCC.
  • HMI Integration: The Winder application runs within WinCC and is displayed on your HMIs.

Resources:

If you already have the license and it’s not appearing, double-check your WinCC license configuration.

Best regards,
Siemens Self Support
