Create Project in Wonderware Intouch

In this article, we will learn to create a new project with an example in Wonderware InTouch SCADA software. Let’s follow the below steps.

Step 1:

Open InTouch. Click on “file” and select “new”. Following window will pop-up. Click “next” to proceed.

Step 2:

Clicking next will pop-up another window. Here, give a name and click “next”.

Step 3:

Again another pop-up will open. Give name here too and click “finish”.

Step 4:

The created project name will be added as shown in the below window.

Double click on it. If it asks for the license the click on ignore to proceed.

Step 5:

The following window will appear as shown below.

Step 6:

Click on “new” and select “new window” will pop-up a new window.

Again Give a name to this window and hit “ok”.

Step 7:

A new window will open as shown in the below figure.

Step 8:

Let’s create a simple program to turn on/off bulb using a logic gate.

To add switch and light click on the “wizard” icon as shown in the below window.

Step 9:

To make AND logic, I have chosen two switches and one light to know the status.

Step 10:

To give tag name, double click on switch and give the name “S1”, same way for the second switch give name “S2”.

Step 11:

Now When you hit “ok” new pop-up will open as shown in the below window. Select type “memory discrete” and hit “save” to proceed.

We select “memory discrete” because we have a switch (digital) in use.

We are just animating it, we have to select the memory to store the value.

Step 12:

Here, Double click on LAMP, then the pop-up window will open. We are creating AND gate here, so simply we have to write “S1 AND S2” as we have selected name S1, S2 for the switches.

Step 13:

To test the logic, click on “runtime” located on the top right corner as shown in the below window.

Step 14:

For AND gate, LAMP will only turn “ON” when both switches are “ON”. If you Switch OFF any one input then the output will go OFF.
