Intuitive engineering right fromthe start.

A user-defined concept, one common look and feel, with integrated intelligence, and total data

management let you unfold the entire potential for both simple and complex applications.

Task and user-oriented

TIA Portal provides state-of-the-art software tech-nology wrapped in an intuitive user interface andallows you to concentrate on engineering withoutslowing down learning a new software. Its intui-tive layout and navigation enables you to quicklyrecognize your desired programming and editingfunctions. Right from the beginning of every project,users may choose between a task-oriented portalview for simplified user guidance or a project viewwith fast access to all relevant tools. The portal viewguides users intuitively through every engineeringstep. Whether a controller is being programmed,an HMI screen is being designed or network con-nections are being configured, TIA Portal intuitivelyhelps new and experienced users alike navigate inthe most productive manner.

Common look and feel with integrated

intelligence

Every software editor within TIA Portal is designed

according to a common layout and navigation.Whether its hardware configuration, logic program-ming or HMI screen design, all environments sharea similar editor design with the same time and costsaving intuitiveness.

Functions, properties and libraries are automaticallydisplayed in accordance to their most intuitive viewfor each desired operation. Switching between edi-tors is easier than imagined with Intelligent Drag

and Drop, Autocompletion for tags and manymore advanced capabilities enabling engineering ofan entire automation system not just a single device.The TIA Portal supports engineering tasks by inte-grating intelligence into the entire project regard-less of its complexity.

Data consistency

TIA Portal makes tag database management aminimal time-consuming task. Tag declaration onlyneeds to be entered once and instantly becomesavailable across all editors. Maximum data consis-tency and transparency throughout the completeproject is the result, reducing errors and improvingthe quality of your automation project. The dataconsistency in the TIA Portal ensures easy accessto any tag from any editor with updating capabilityacross all connected devices.

Framework architecture in an attractive design

TIA Portal is an advanced software architecture de-

signed on a simple navigation scheme. The graphi-cal ergonomics guarantees the highest softwareefficiency and timesaving. All editors are clearlyarranged and available from a single screen. Youalways have a complete overview of the projectwithout having to click through complicated menusand window structures. This means the entire soft-ware works as an easily accessible framework. Thisis what we call unprecedented intuitiveness.

Efficient tools for instant success.

Engineering tasks in the world of automation systems can be both simple and highly complex.

Programming powerful algorithms can often be time-consuming but repeating them should be

simple and instantaneous. The ideal engineering software must be interoperable and results

must be reusable to save time and ensure the highest project quality.

Highest interoperability

When designing integrated automation systems, itis very common for engineers to be working in mul-tiple editors at the same time. For the first time ever,all engineering tools can be accessed from a singlegraphical interface. With TIA Portal, we have devel-oped a powerful graphical engineering framework,which acts as a single software with one commonuser interface. If configuring multiple devices, datacan be transferred between different editors as easyas drag and drop. All resulting device connectionsare automatically generated in the background.This not only makes your work easier, it allows youto spend less time engineering the control systemand frees valuable time for focusing on your coreapplication.

Reuse of results

With TIA Portal, you can combine different parts of

engineering projects to form libraries that can beeasily reused. This means that configurations fromdifferent machines and plants may be centrallystored on a server, managed, and archived in struc-tured libraries. Previously engineered components,proven project data, as well as projects from pastversions may easily be reused, allowing features andfunctionalities to be added or deleted. The initial

quality of engineering is carried over from the firsttested program to all future projects and is donefast and efficiently, saving you valuable time.

High performance with shared services

The power of TIA Portal is that all automationdevices can be handled in the same way and easilyinterconnected. Shared services such as a singledownload into all devices in the system, commoncross reference, and powerful online functionalitiesare centrally managed within the framework andcan be easily accessed from every editor. When se-lecting objects or changing editors, built-in softwarefilters speed up your normal tasks, links, and crossreferences alleviate lengthy searches for instructionsor menus, and a favorites function helps you findfrequently used objects and commands.

Reduced engineering complexity

The entire engineering process in TIA Portal isobject-oriented, meaning that not only programblocks but also the corresponding signal modulescan be managed efficiently in structured libraries. Allof these important integrated functionalities signifi-cantly reduce the complexity of engineering projectsby making the engineering process more efficientthroughout all phases of the production life cycle.
