12.3 DNP 3.0 Slave
Default group and variation sets are used to send static and event values. If master devices support different groups and variations, they can be adjusted in Excel configuration. Wcc-Lite supported variations are provided in Static and Event variations and Co...
20.5 Debugging an IEC 61499 application
After a project has been built and binded to an existing Excel configuration, a user would normally want to check if every part is working according to the prior requirements before compiling finished project and uploading it to production. Both 4Diac framewor...
18.5 Virtual device
General The virtual device is a device that you can use to calculate additional math or keep a counter. It doesn't bind to any protocol and only works when its math expression is used. Virtual device functionality is only available since firmware version v1...
The Vinci Software changelog
v3.2.3.19 - Software update 2025 January 7. Minor security update: The "Interface Info", "Ping" and "Sockets" buttons were updated so they no longer open the Windows Command Prompt. Instead, they now display the relevant information in a dedicated window. v3...
Firmware update
To upgrade the FW of wcc lite, in the web interface go to system -> backup/flash firmware and upload the downloaded sysupgrade file by browsing for it and then pressing flash image. The keep settings box can be marked if the old settings are needed and the FW ...
28 M-Bus
Overview M-Bus or Meter-Bus is a protocol for the remote reading of water, gas, or electricity meters. M-Bus is also usable for other types of consumption meters, such as heating systems or water meters. The M-Bus interface is made for communication on two wi...
16.13 M-Bus
Overview M-Bus or Meter-Bus is a protocol for the remote reading of water, gas, or electricity meters. M-Bus is also usable for other types of consumption meters, such as heating systems or water meters. The M-Bus interface is made for communication on two wi...
20.7 Distributed control application
IEC 64199 standard introduced requirements for a distributed control. This means that multiple devices can change information between them and make their own decisions based on the data they receive from other sources. This enables distributed applications bet...
20.6 Generating and uploading FORTE logic file
After the PLC design is finished and debugged, such design can be compiled into FBOOT file and uploaded to one or multiple devices to be used in production. As application being debuggged is not automatically considered as a default application, one should be ...
20.4 Configuring data endpoints
To use WCC Lite as a programmable logic controller, it needs to be configured in a particular way. The PLC functionality of the WCC Lite only allows for the use of data that is has been configured in the Excel configuration spreadsheet. This has been done for ...
13.1 Introduction
Modbus is a serial communications protocol for use with its programmable logic controllers (PLCs). Modbus has become a de facto standard communication protocol and is now a commonly available means of connecting industrial electronic devices. It was developed ...
20.3 Example project
The best way to understand basics of 4Diac and WCC Lite collaboration is through an example project. This user manual intends to show the pieces needed to run PLC applications on WCC Lite. It is not intended to be definitive guide on how to use 4Diac IDE or ho...
20.2 4Diac framework
The PLC functionality in the WCC Lite is implemented using Eclipse 4diac framework, consisting of the 4diac IDE and the 4diac FORTE runtime. The system corresponds to IEC 61499, an extension of IEC 61131-3. For more in-depth instructions and function block r...
20.1 IEC 61499
IEC 61499-1 defines the architecture for distributed systems. In IEC 61499 the cyclic execution model of IEC 61131 is replaced by an event driven execution model. The event driven execution model allows for an explicit specification of the execution order of f...
15.3 IEC 61850 Client
WCC Lite can be used as a master station to collect data from IEC 61850 compatible server devices such as protection relays. As relays require fast, secure and responsive interfaces, WCC Lite can be considered as a valid option. For additional security a user ...
15.2 IEC 61850 Server
WCC Lite can act as a IEC 61850 server to serve data to remote SCADA systems. For example, WCC Lite can be used to acquire data from various protocols (Modbus, IEC 60870-5-103, etc.), this data can be redirected and propagated further to a single or multiple I...
15.1 Introduction
IEC 61850 is an international standard defining communication protocols for intelligent electronic devices at electrical substations. It is a part of the International Electrotechnical Commission’s (IEC) Technical Committee 57 reference architecture for electr...
13.3 Modbus Slave
WCC Lite can act as one (or several) of slave devices in a communication line. This can be used to transmit data to SCADA systems or other RTU devices. It can reply to a messages from Modbus Master with matching device and register addresses. Configuring data...
13.2 Modbus Master
Modbus communication contains a single Master and may include more than 1, but not more than 247 devices. To gather data from peripheral devices, master device request a cluster of slave devices for data. If any device understand that this message is addressed...
1 Overview
This document is intended to act as a user manual and explain WCC Lite usage in detail. It is expected the person referring to this manual is experienced in programmable logic controllers (PLC), networking (IPv4, ethernet) and the use of the operating system o...
