Siemens ITC, Basics

Siemens ITC (Industrial Thin Client) provides a touch screen (GUI). The touch screen builds a connection to a WinCC OA user interface. The touch screen makes machine-oriented operation possible.

In order to start a WinCC OA UI on the Industrial Thin Client, just specify the IP address of the server in the config file of the project and start a CTRL manager with the option webclient_http.ctl in the WinCC OA console - see chapter Desktop UI.

On the client build a connection to the server by specifying the IP address of the WinCC OA web server - see chapter requirements and installation. The Industrial Thin Client builds a connection to the WinCC OA web server. The client downloads a runtime package and starts a WinCC OA UI on the client. A WinCC OA Installation on the thin client is not necessary,

The download of the runtime package guarantees that the most current (updated) files are always used.
