€ 2.495,00
The Siemens 6AV6381-2BK07-5AV0 is a software license for WinCC flexible 2007, part of Siemens' WinCC flexible engineering software family. WinCC flexible is a PC-based HMI configuration and runtime software platform used to create visualization projects for Siemens HMI panels and SCADA systems. This specific part number corresponds to the WinCC flexible 2007 Compact edition, designed for configuring operator panels within the Siemens SIMATIC HMI product range.
WinCC flexible 2007 Compact provides an engineering environment for creating HMI projects targeting Siemens Micro Panels, Mobile Panels, and Comfort/Basic Panels. The software integrates directly with SIMATIC STEP 7 for seamless PLC-HMI project integration, supporting communication via PROFIBUS, MPI, and Ethernet interfaces. It includes a library of pre-built faceplates, symbol libraries, and scripting capabilities using VBScript for advanced project customization. The software runs on standard Windows-based engineering PCs and supports project simulation for offline testing prior to panel deployment.
WinCC flexible 2007 is widely used in manufacturing automation, process control, and machine building industries where Siemens SIMATIC HMI panels are deployed. It is suitable for OEMs and system integrators developing machine-level visualization solutions for applications such as packaging machinery, conveyor systems, press lines, and general factory automation. The Compact edition is particularly suited for smaller-scale projects with a limited number of HMI devices and process tags.

Common Error Codes & System Events
- Error 1000
- License not found or license key invalid during software startup
Verify the license key is correctly installed using the Siemens Automation License Manager (ALM). Re-enter or transfer the license if necessary. - Error 1001
- License has expired or is a trial license that has reached its time limit
Purchase and apply a full license via the Automation License Manager. Ensure system date and time are correct. - Compiler Error
- Project compilation fails due to inconsistent or missing tag references
Check all HMI tags for correct PLC address assignments. Remove or correct any broken tag links before recompiling. - Communication Error
- No connection established between WinCC flexible runtime simulation and the target PLC
Verify communication settings including PLC address, subnet, and protocol. Ensure the correct communication driver is installed and active. - Transfer Error
- Project transfer to the target HMI panel fails during download
Check the transfer cable or Ethernet connection. Confirm the panel is in transfer mode and that the correct communication channel is selected in the transfer settings. - Runtime Error
- WinCC flexible Runtime crashes or fails to start on the engineering PC during simulation
Check PC hardware resources (RAM, disk space). Reinstall the WinCC flexible Runtime component if the issue persists. Verify Windows compatibility. - Database Error
- Project database corruption detected when opening an existing WinCC flexible project
Restore the project from a recent backup. Use the WinCC flexible project repair utility if available, or recreate the project from the last known good version.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which HMI panels are supported by WinCC flexible 2007 Compact?
WinCC flexible 2007 Compact supports Siemens Micro Panels, Mobile Panels, and selected Basic Panels. It does not support the full range of Comfort Panels, which require the Standard or Advanced edition.
Is WinCC flexible 2007 compatible with Windows 10?
WinCC flexible 2007 was designed for Windows XP, Vista, and Windows 7. It is not officially supported on Windows 10, and compatibility issues may arise. Siemens recommends migrating to WinCC flexible 2008 or TIA Portal for use on modern operating systems.
Can WinCC flexible 2007 projects be migrated to TIA Portal?
Yes, WinCC flexible projects can be migrated to TIA Portal using the integrated migration tool. However, some project elements may require manual rework after migration depending on the complexity of the original project.
Does this software include a runtime license for the engineering PC?
The Compact edition includes a runtime license for simulation purposes on the engineering PC. A separate runtime license is required for deploying a PC-based runtime in a production environment.
What is the maximum number of process tags supported in the Compact edition?
WinCC flexible 2007 Compact supports a limited number of process tags, typically up to 128 external tags. For larger projects requiring more tags, the Standard or Advanced edition is required.
Troubleshooting
Software fails to start and displays a license error message
Open the Siemens Automation License Manager and check whether a valid WinCC flexible 2007 Compact license is present and assigned to the local machine.
Transfer or reinstall the license using the Automation License Manager. If the license dongle is used, ensure it is properly connected to the USB port before launching the software.
Project transfer to HMI panel fails with a connection timeout
Check the physical connection between the engineering PC and the HMI panel. Verify the selected transfer channel (USB, Ethernet, or MPI/PROFIBUS) matches the actual connection type.
Switch the HMI panel to transfer mode manually, confirm the correct COM port or IP address is configured in the transfer settings, and retry the download.
Compiled project generates tag address errors during compilation
Review the tag table for any PLC addresses that are out of range or reference a PLC data block that no longer exists in the linked STEP 7 project.
Correct or delete invalid tag addresses in the HMI tag table. Re-link the STEP 7 project if the PLC program has been updated and recompile the HMI project.
WinCC flexible 2007 installation fails on the engineering PC
Check the Windows version and ensure it meets the minimum requirements. Review the installation log file for specific error codes related to missing prerequisites.
Install all required Microsoft prerequisites including .NET Framework and MSXML components. Run the installer as Administrator and disable antivirus software temporarily during installation.
Simulation mode does not reflect PLC data changes
Verify that the communication driver for the simulation is correctly configured and that the PLC is reachable from the engineering PC via the configured network interface.
Check the PLC IP address and subnet settings in the WinCC flexible communication settings. Ensure the PC firewall is not blocking the communication port used by the SIMATIC driver.
