€ 2.195,00
The Siemens 6AV6381-2BE07-5AV0 is a software license for WinCC flexible 2007, part of Siemens' WinCC flexible engineering software family. This product provides the runtime and configuration environment used to develop, commission, and operate HMI (Human-Machine Interface) applications on Siemens panels and PC-based systems. It belongs to the SIMATIC HMI product line and is designed for use with the full range of Siemens operator panels and touch-based HMI devices.
WinCC flexible 2007 offers a scalable engineering framework supporting project creation for the complete range of SIMATIC HMI panels, from Micro Panels up to Multi Panels and PC-based runtime systems. The software includes features such as faceplates, scripts, trend displays, alarm management, recipe management, and multi-language project support. It integrates with STEP 7 for seamless PLC-HMI engineering and supports communication via PROFIBUS, PROFINET, MPI, and various third-party protocols. The software runs on standard Windows operating systems and provides a tag-based licensing model.
WinCC flexible 2007 is widely used in manufacturing automation, process control, and machine building applications across industries such as automotive, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and general industrial production. It is particularly suited for projects requiring centralized HMI engineering across multiple panel types within a single project environment. The software's compatibility with the SIMATIC S7 controller family makes it a standard choice for Siemens-based automation architectures.

Common Error Codes & System Events
- Error 1
- License not found or invalid license key detected during startup
Verify the license dongle or software license is correctly installed using Siemens Automation License Manager (ALM). Reinstall or transfer the license if necessary. - Error 2
- Project version mismatch — project was created with a newer or incompatible version of WinCC flexible
Open the project migration wizard within WinCC flexible to convert the project to the current version, or install the matching software version. - Error 3
- Communication error to PLC — HMI runtime cannot establish connection to the configured controller
Check physical communication cable connections, verify PLC address settings, and confirm the communication driver is correctly configured in the project. - Error 4
- Tag limit exceeded — number of configured tags exceeds the licensed tag count
Reduce the number of tags in the project or upgrade the WinCC flexible license to a higher tag count tier. - Error 5
- Runtime startup failure — WinCC flexible Runtime cannot start on the target panel or PC
Check that the correct runtime version is installed on the target device, verify available memory, and ensure no conflicting software is running. - Error 6
- Transfer error — project transfer to HMI panel failed or was interrupted
Check the transfer cable or network connection, ensure the panel is in transfer mode, and verify that the project size does not exceed the panel's available memory. - Error 7
- Alarm buffer overflow — the alarm log has exceeded its configured storage limit
Increase the alarm buffer size in the project settings or implement alarm archiving to an external data storage location.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which HMI panels are supported by WinCC flexible 2007?
WinCC flexible 2007 supports the full range of SIMATIC HMI panels including Micro Panels, OP/TP 170, 177, 270, 277, MP 270, MP 370, MP 377, and PC-based runtime systems. It does not support the newer Comfort Panels, which require WinCC flexible 2008 or TIA Portal.
Is WinCC flexible 2007 compatible with STEP 7?
Yes, WinCC flexible 2007 integrates directly with Siemens STEP 7 for combined PLC and HMI engineering within a single project environment. This allows shared tag databases and streamlined commissioning.
What operating systems does WinCC flexible 2007 support?
WinCC flexible 2007 is compatible with Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7 (32-bit editions). It is not officially supported on Windows 8, Windows 10, or 64-bit operating systems without compatibility workarounds.
Can WinCC flexible 2007 projects be migrated to TIA Portal?
Yes, Siemens provides a migration tool within TIA Portal that can import WinCC flexible projects. However, manual rework is typically required after migration due to differences in functionality and panel support.
What communication protocols does WinCC flexible 2007 support?
WinCC flexible 2007 supports PROFIBUS DP, PROFINET, MPI, Ethernet TCP/IP, and various serial protocols. Third-party PLC communication is also possible via available communication drivers included in the software.
Troubleshooting
WinCC flexible 2007 fails to start and displays a license error
Open the Siemens Automation License Manager (ALM) and check whether a valid license for WinCC flexible 2007 is present and not expired or corrupted.
Transfer a valid license to the engineering PC using ALM. If using a hardware dongle, ensure it is properly connected and recognized by the operating system before launching the software.
Project transfer to HMI panel fails repeatedly
Check the transfer connection type (USB, Ethernet, or serial MPI/PROFIBUS), verify the panel is set to transfer mode, and confirm the IP address or COM port settings match the project configuration.
Restart the HMI panel in transfer mode, verify network or cable connections, and re-initiate the transfer from WinCC flexible. If the panel memory is full, delete existing projects on the panel before transferring.
Runtime on the HMI panel shows communication errors to the PLC
Verify the PLC address, subnet settings, and communication driver configured in the WinCC flexible project match the actual PLC hardware settings. Check physical cabling between the panel and PLC.
Correct any address mismatches in the project's connection settings, recompile and retransfer the project to the panel. Replace communication cables if physical damage is suspected.
WinCC flexible engineering software crashes when opening large projects
Check available RAM and disk space on the engineering PC. Large projects with many screens, tags, and scripts can exceed the memory capacity of older hardware running 32-bit Windows.
Increase the RAM on the engineering PC to at least 2 GB, close background applications to free memory, and ensure the latest service pack for WinCC flexible 2007 is installed.
Alarm displays on the HMI panel do not update or show stale data
Check the alarm tag connections in the project and verify that the PLC bit addresses mapped to alarm triggers are being correctly written by the PLC program.
Recheck alarm tag addressing in WinCC flexible, confirm PLC logic is functioning correctly, and verify the communication connection between the panel and PLC is stable and not intermittently dropping.
