Dashboard Kit

The Dashboard Kit is the ultimate visualization package for WinCC Unified developers. This comprehensive bundle brings together our three most powerful charting components—Line Chart, Bar Chart, and Pie/Doughnut Chart—providing everything you need to build professional, high-performance industrial dashboards.

By combining these essential visualization tools, the Dashboard Kit enables you to represent any type of process data, from real-time trends and historical comparisons to proportional distributions and KPIs.

Included Components

1. Line Chart

Perfect for continuous data visualization and trend analysis.

• Real-time process value tracking
• Historical data visualization
• Smooth animations and high-performance rendering
• Fully customizable axis and grid colors

2. Bar Chart

Ideal for comparing discrete data points and tracking metrics over time.

• Categorical data comparison
• Production output tracking
• Shift-based performance analysis
• Dynamic color coding based on status or alarms

3. Pie/Doughnut Chart

Professional circular charts for visualizing proportional data distribution.

• Proportional resource allocation
• Production mix monitoring
• KPI visualization with center text in doughnut mode
• Automatic percentage calculation and display

Key Benefits

• Significant Savings: Get all three essential charts at a discounted bundle price compared to individual purchases.
• Unified Design: All components share a consistent design language and configuration pattern, ensuring a cohesive look for your HMI.
• Seamless Integration: Built specifically for WinCC Unified (PC Runtime and Comfort Panels) using the WebCC API.
• Performance Optimized: Each component is engineered for industrial environments where reliability and responsiveness are critical.
• Future-Proof: Includes lifetime updates for all components in the bundle.

Implementation Guide

The Dashboard Kit components follow a consistent implementation pattern in WinCC Unified. For detailed documentation on each component, please refer to their individual documentation pages.

General Configuration Pattern

1. Drop the Component: Drag the desired chart from your library onto a WinCC Unified screen.
2. Configure Basic Properties: Set Title, Colors, and Background styles in the property inspector.
3. Bind Data via Scripts: Use WinCC Unified screen scripts to update the component's data and labels arrays from your PLC tags or historical logs.

Example: Multi-Chart Dashboard

A typical production dashboard might utilize all three components:

• Bar Chart: To show total production output per shift.
• Line Chart: To monitor real-time temperature or pressure trends.
• Pie Chart: To visualize the ratio of "Good" vs. "Scrap" parts produced.

Technical Specifications

• Compatibility: WinCC Unified V17, V18, V19
• Runtime: PC Runtime, Comfort Panels, Unified Unified Runtime on S7-1500 (Web Server)
• Technology: HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript (Chart.js)
