WinCC Unified V20 - Scalability
New device versions

Unified Basic Panel Unified Comfort Panel WinCC Unified PC

New device version for

✓ PC Runtime
✓ Unified Comfort Panels
✓ Unified Basic Panels

New features are available in the corresponding device

version only

➢ Upgrade the Unified devices

➢ Upgrade Faceplates in library (if necessary)

➢ Upgrade Custom Web Controls in projects (if necessary)

Performance
Unified Basic Panel Unified Comfort Panel WinCC Unified PC

Compile performance has been improved in

certain scenarios

Rebuild should be around 20% - 40% faster compared to V18 depending on the project
contents (already V19 Update 1)

Delta Compile improvements are visible when

➢ Compiling screens

➢ Compiling small changes in JavaScripts

Delta Compile is the preferable compile method!

Optimize high resolution graphics in ES during
Unified Basic Panel Unified Comfort Panel WinCC Unified PC

Optimize high resolution graphics in ES

during configuration

Bitmap images are resized during compilation to improved

runtime performance due to optimized graphics

➢ Resize is based on the usages of the images

e.g., high-resolution bitmap used for a button image is
resized automatically to the necessary dimension

➢ No recognizable quality change visible in runtime

New checkbox SVG-files are not resized, only bitmap graphics can be resized

Tag multiplexing is optimized for a reduced screen

load time

➢ Multiplexing only on demand for subscribed tags

➢ Displaying Warning for count over limits.

➢ Performance hint in engineering (resource monitor)

The Resource Monitor can calculate

• Number of Multiplex Tags (Index and DBName) with more
than 200 Child members
• Warning Message for user in Overview with HMI Tag
Names when there are more tags configured than the limit
• Device Limits : UBP : 5, UCP : 10, UPC : 20
