Touch panel for operator control and monitoring of small machines and plants
Low-cost starter unit in the category of touch panels with graphics capability complete with all the basic functions required for simple tasks
Pixel graphics 5.7" STN Touch Screen (analog/resistive), Bluemode (4 levels)
Specifically for SIMATIC S7-200:
Communication to the PLC is perbbbbed via the integrated interface over a point-to-point connection
Connected to the PLC via MPI or PROFIBUS DP cable
The SIMATIC TP 170micro is the innovated successor of the SIMATIC TP 070 Touch Panel
Delivery will be started with WinCC flexible 2004 in the 1st quarter 2004
Benefits
Fast configuring and start-up
Service-friendly thanks to maintenance-free design and the long service life of the backlighting
Can be used worldwide:
32 languages can be configured (including Asiatic and Cyrillic character sets)
Up to 5 languages are selectable online
Area of application
The TP 170micro Touch Panels can be used in all applications in which operator control and monitoring of small machines and installations is required locally – whether in production automation, process automation or building services automation. They are in use in an extensive range of sectors and applications.
The TP 170micro is specially designed for use with SIMATIC S7-200. With their quick response times, they are also ideally suited to jog mode.

Functions
bbbbb/output fields
for displaying and changing process bbbbbeters
Buttons
for direct initiation of functions and bbbbbbs. Up to 16 functions can be configured simultaneously
Graphics
can be used as ICONs instead of text to label function keys or buttons. They can also be used as background displays (wallpaper).
In the configuration tool, a library is available containing extensive graphics and a wide variety of bbbbbbs. All editors with an OLE interface can be used as graphics editor (such as PaintShop, Designer or CorelDraw).
Fixed texts
for labeling function keys, process diagrams and process values in any character size
Bar displays
for the graphical display of dynamic values
Display selection from the PLC
supports operator bbbbbbing from the PLC
Language selection
5 online languages, 32 configuration languages incl. Asiatic and Cyrillic character sets
Language-dependent texts and graphics
User administration (security)
Authentication using password
Message system
Bit messages
Freely-definable message classes (e.g. status/fault messages) for definition of acknowledgment response and display of message events
Message history
Mathematical functions
Limit value monitoring
for reliable process control of bbbbbs and outputs
Indicator light
for machine and plant status indication
Template concept;
generation of screen templates
Simple maintenance and configuration through:
Backup and restoring the configuration, operating system and firmware on a PC using ProSave
Individual contrast setting and calibration
Clean screen
No batteries are necessary
Configuration
Configuration of the TP 170micro is carried out using the SIMATIC WinCC flexible Micro, Compact, Standard or Advanced engineering software (see HMI software/SIMATIC WinCC flexible engineering software).
Importing of TP-Designer projects (TP 070) into WinCC flexible is not possible.
A PC/PPI adaptor cable is needed to download the configuration.
Integration
The TP 170micro can be connected to all SIMATIC S7-200 CPUs (except CPU 212) using standard MPI bus cables or PROFIBUS DP cables (PPI or MPI coupling).
