In the Siemens family of software products, Step 7 performs integration functions for complex automation tasks. The Step 7 project can include, for example, human-machine interface systems, such as operator panels configured with Siemens ProTool or WinCC Flexible software, or a personal computer with WinCC software. The integration of HMI projects into the Step 7 project facilitates the automatic linking of projects for the controller and operator interface, speeds up design and avoids errors associated with separate use of programs.[1]
