Custom Web Control
About Radar Chart
The Radar Chart is a sophisticated Custom Web Control (CWC) designed for high-performance industrial visualization within WinCC Unified and WinCC V8. It enables engineers and operators to compare multiple quantitative variables across distinct categories in a single, intuitive spider-web layout, providing a holistic view of process performance and system health.
Key Features
- Multivariate Comparison: Simultaneously visualize complex datasets across multiple axes defined in the indicators property.
- Interactive Data Handling: The PointClicked event allows for seamless integration with HMI logic, enabling drill-down actions or detailed status reports when a specific data node is selected.
- Dynamic Styling: Advanced series styling with fill opacity and smooth transitions powered by the animationDuration property.
- Industrial Integration: Native support for TIA Portal and WinCC V8 projects with direct binding to PLC tags.
Customization
Engineers can fully customize the look and feel of the control through 7 adjustable properties. Tailor the interface using backgroundColor and labelColor to match corporate design standards or dark-mode control rooms. Define axis names and maximum scales via the indicators array and feed live process data through the series array. You can also provide context with a dynamic chartTitle and toggle the showLegend property for cleaner layouts on smaller operator panels.
Use Cases
- Machine Performance Profiling: Comparing actual vs. target metrics across different operation modes.
- Quality Control: Visualizing deviations across multiple sensor readings in a single view.
- Energy Management: Benchmarking consumption patterns across different production lines or shifts.
Compatibility
Works with WinCC Unified (TIA Portal) and WinCC V8. Includes full support for industrial web environments and modern touch panels.
💡 TIA Portal Reminder: Remember to uncheck the "Read only" option in TIA Portal when linking a tag to a property that needs to be written from the Custom Web Control. If you do not, the CWC will only be able to read the HMI tags and not write to them.
