Description
Additional information

The Siemens 6AV6371-2BR07-5AJ0 is a WinCC Runtime software license belonging to Siemens' SIMATIC WinCC product family, a professional SCADA and HMI visualization platform. This part number corresponds to a WinCC Runtime license with a 65536 PowerTag (process variable) capacity, designed for use on standard PC-based hardware running Windows operating systems. It is part of the broader SIMATIC WinCC V7 software suite developed by Siemens for industrial process visualization and control.

WinCC Runtime 6AV6371-2BR07-5AJ0 provides a high-capacity runtime environment supporting up to 65536 process tags, enabling large-scale visualization projects with extensive data acquisition and archiving capabilities. The software supports a wide range of communication interfaces and drivers for connecting to SIMATIC S7 PLCs, third-party controllers, and field devices via OPC DA/UA, PROFIBUS, PROFINET, and Industrial Ethernet. It includes integrated alarm management, trend displays, report generation, and a redundancy option for high-availability applications. The platform supports scripting via VBScript and C-Script for custom automation logic within the HMI environment.

This WinCC Runtime license is used extensively in process industries such as oil and gas, chemical processing, water treatment, power generation, and manufacturing automation where large numbers of process variables must be monitored and controlled from a centralized SCADA workstation. The 65536-tag capacity makes it suitable for plant-wide visualization systems, central control rooms, and distributed SCADA architectures. Its compatibility with the broader Siemens TIA Portal and SIMATIC ecosystem makes it a standard choice for Siemens-based automation infrastructure.

Common Error Codes & System Events

Event ID: 1000000: WinCC Runtime startup failure due to missing or invalid license key.
Verify that the correct WinCC Runtime license is installed using the Siemens Automation License Manager (ALM). Ensure the license matches the purchased tag count.
Event ID: 1001: Communication error to PLC or data source. The configured channel driver cannot establish a connection.
Check network connectivity, verify PLC IP address or MPI/PROFIBUS address configuration in WinCC channel settings, and confirm the PLC is in RUN mode.
Event ID: 112: WinCC project database connection failed. The SQL Server instance used by WinCC is not accessible.
Verify that the Microsoft SQL Server instance (WinCC uses a local SQL Server) is running. Restart the SQL Server service and then restart WinCC Runtime.
Event ID: 10241: Tag logging archive error. Process value archiving has stopped due to a database or disk space issue.
Check available disk space on the archive drive. Verify SQL Server archive database integrity and reconfigure archive segment sizes if necessary.
Event ID: 10001: Alarm logging error. Alarm messages cannot be written to the alarm archive.
Check SQL Server service status and disk space. Verify alarm logging configuration in WinCC Explorer and restart the alarm logging service.
Event ID: 20000: OPC server connection lost. WinCC OPC client channel has disconnected from the OPC server.
Verify the OPC server application is running on the target machine. Check DCOM settings and firewall rules if connecting to a remote OPC server.
Event ID: 1917: Redundancy switchover occurred. The WinCC redundancy system has switched from master to standby server.
Investigate the cause of the switchover (network failure, hardware fault, or software crash on the master server). Restore the master server and allow automatic resynchronization.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the tag capacity of the 6AV6371-2BR07-5AJ0 WinCC Runtime license?

The 6AV6371-2BR07-5AJ0 provides a WinCC Runtime license for up to 65536 PowerTags (process variables), making it suitable for large-scale SCADA and visualization projects.

Is this WinCC Runtime license compatible with TIA Portal?

WinCC V7 Runtime operates as a standalone SCADA platform and is not directly integrated into TIA Portal in the same way as WinCC Basic/Comfort/Advanced. However, it can communicate with TIA Portal-configured PLCs (S7-1200, S7-1500) via standard Siemens communication channels.

What operating systems are supported by this WinCC Runtime?

SIMATIC WinCC V7 Runtime is supported on Windows 10 (64-bit) and Windows Server 2016/2019. Older versions may support Windows 7, but Siemens recommends using the latest supported OS for security and compatibility.

Does this license support redundant server configurations?

WinCC Runtime supports redundancy, but a separate WinCC Redundancy option license is required in addition to the Runtime license. The 6AV6371-2BR07-5AJ0 is the base Runtime license only.

What database engine does WinCC Runtime use for archiving?

WinCC Runtime uses Microsoft SQL Server as its internal database engine for process value archiving and alarm logging. The required SQL Server version is bundled with the WinCC installation package.

Troubleshooting

WinCC Runtime fails to start and displays a license error

Open the Siemens Automation License Manager (ALM) and check whether a valid WinCC Runtime license with sufficient tag count is present and not expired or transferred.

Install or transfer the correct WinCC Runtime license using ALM. Ensure the license matches the installed WinCC version and tag count. If using a USB dongle, verify it is properly connected.

No data displayed on WinCC screens; all tags show error status

Check the WinCC channel diagnostics in WinCC Explorer under the communication channel. Verify the PLC connection status and check Windows Event Viewer for channel driver errors.

Verify PLC IP address, rack/slot configuration, and network connectivity. Restart the WinCC channel driver from WinCC Explorer. If using S7 channel, confirm the PLC is in RUN mode and accessible on the network.

WinCC Runtime crashes or freezes intermittently

Review the WinCC log files located in the project directory and Windows Event Viewer for application errors. Check system resource usage (CPU, RAM, disk I/O) during the crash period.

Ensure the PC meets Siemens hardware requirements for the installed tag count. Disable unnecessary background applications. Apply the latest WinCC service pack and hotfixes from Siemens Support. Check SQL Server health and archive database fragmentation.

Historical trend data is missing or archiving has stopped

Check the WinCC Tag Logging runtime status in WinCC Explorer. Review available disk space and SQL Server database size limits. Check Event Viewer for SQL Server or WinCC archive errors.

Free up disk space or expand the archive storage path. Reconfigure archive segment size and backup/delete old archive segments. Restart the Tag Logging runtime component from WinCC Explorer.

Alarm messages are not appearing in the alarm control despite active faults in the PLC

Verify that the WinCC Alarm Logging runtime is active. Check that the alarm tags are correctly linked to PLC data blocks and that the alarm classes are configured and enabled in the project.

Restart the Alarm Logging runtime in WinCC Explorer. Verify tag connections for alarm bits in the WinCC variable manager. Confirm that the PLC program is writing the expected values to the monitored tags.
