Installation Notes
- Extract the downloaded archive with the password shown at the bottom of this page, using a recent version of WinRAR or 7-Zip.
- Run the installer as administrator and keep the default path unless your company standard requires otherwise.
- If a controller or robot connection will be used, allow the software through the Windows firewall when prompted.
- Temporarily disable antivirus and Windows Defender real-time protection during setup — installers that copy licensed components are frequently false-flagged.
- After installation, re-enable antivirus protection and add the program folder to the allowed list if your policy requires it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I edit screens without TIA Portal?
Screens are engineered in TIA Portal WinCC; the runtime only executes them.
How do I transfer a project to a panel?
Use Transfer Settings in TIA Portal over Ethernet or USB; set the transfer mode on the panel first.
Is a license dongle required?
Runtime licensing is dongle or software-based; a demo mode runs with a banner for evaluation.
Does it run in a virtual machine?
Yes for testing; for production machine operation a physical IPC is recommended for licensing and graphics stability.

Tips from Real Projects
A packaging-machine builder standardized on runtime-advanced stations with identical recipe schemes across twelve machines; changeover dropped from 25 minutes to 6 because operators only ever learned one screen layout. Consistency across a machine family beats beauty on any single machine.
