WinCC OA

SIMATIC WinCC Open Architecture (OA) is a supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) and human-machine interface (HMI) system from Siemens. SCADA systems are used to monitor and control physical processes involved in industry and infrastructure on a large scale and over long distances.

BE-ICS provides central support and expertise for this technology, either through local experts or by handling them with ETM.

The ICS group holds the supply contract with Siemens/ETM for WinCC OA for users at CERN and in collaborating institutes. We generate and distribute licenses.

BE-ICS maintains and develop software frameworks: JCOP and UNICOS to provide tools and building blocks on top of WinCC OA.

WinCC OA is the group's standard to implement supervisory layer of controls applications (based on UNICOS)
