Configuring the WinCC flexible project
SIMATIC IPC427C-HMI/-HMI/RTX and SIMATIC HMI IPC477C-HMI/-HMI/RTX include
WinCC flexible Runtime (RT), with the Recipe and Archive options. The license key for the
other WinCC flexible RT options is also included.
You must configure your WinCC flexible project with the WinCC flexible ES (engineering
station) software, and transfer this project from the engineering station computer to
WinCC flexible RT on the SIMATIC Embedded Bundles. WinCC flexible ES is a separate
product and does not ship with SIMATIC IPC427C-HMI/-HMI/RTX or
SIMATIC HMI IPC477C-HMI/-HMI/RTX.
The runtime configuration file settings for the default administrator user ("Administrator") are
pre-configured to D:\ locations. If you create a new Windows user on the SIMATIC
Embedded Bundles, the new user will automatically receive the same runtime configuration
file settings as the default administrator user ("Administrator"). You do not need to change
the runtime settings for the "Administrator" default user or for a new Windows user.
For WinCC flexible RT, a D:\ drive on the CompactFlash card with the Enhanced Write Filter
(Page 35) (EWF) disabled is required.
Changing the WinCC flexible runtime settings
To change the runtime settings for a new Windows user follow these steps:
1. Log on to the PC with the new Windows user name and password.
2. Select the Start > Programs > Startup menu command to modify the RT Loader settings.
3. In the Directories group box, change the locations for "Configuration file" and
SIMATIC IPC427C Bundles, SIMATIC HMI IPC477C Bundles
