HMI migration assessment
Automation Liberty reviews submitted Weinview/Weintek EBPro project material for Kinco DTools Pro planning. Today, the deliverable is a manual engineering assessment of screen structure, tags, drivers, macros, file risks, and target-panel assumptions. Generating a Kinco DTools Pro project, including any skeleton, remains planned and subject to engineering review.
What this assessment is
- A project assessment workflow for Weinview/Weintek EBPro sources moving toward Kinco DTools Pro.
- Planned: a Kinco DTools Pro project skeleton after real-open evidence is accepted.
- Planned: conversion support beyond manual assessment.
- Current: a review path for screens, tags, drivers, macros, file risks, and target-panel assumptions.
Current evidence boundary
| Item | Status | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Intermediate model and validation | Verified | Stage 1 has a unified IR model and validation checks. |
| Kinco DTools Pro skeleton writer | Verified | The writer builds a project skeleton by template method. |
| Kinco DTools Pro project reader | Verified | A real project sample was read as 145 windows and 4990 controls, matching the independent truth set. |
| Project doctor | Verified | The doctor flags missing project structure before review. |
| Round-trip and idempotence tests | Verified | Stage 1 covered project round-trip and byte-stable repeat output checks. |
| DTools Pro real-open Gate-1 | Not passed | Generated projects still need real DTools Pro opening evidence. |
| Weinview/Weintek EBPro reader | Planned | Stage 2 requires real EBPro export samples. |
| Macro translation | Requires validation | Macros are not treated as deterministic translation targets. |
| Encrypted or compiled private formats | Out of scope | The tool does not parse protected or compiled private formats. |
| Pixel-level restoration | Out of scope | Screen layout review is not a pixel-level recreation promise. |
Verified = T12 internal Stage 1 test evidence, not a customer-facing deliverable.
Supported path
- Source side: Weinview/Weintek EBPro version details, screenshots, tag lists, PDF exports, and driver notes.
- Target side: planned Kinco DTools Pro project generation, including any skeleton, after real-open evidence.
- Current offer: submit assessment files; conclusions remain subject to engineering review.
- End-to-end EBPro to Kinco DTools Pro conversion is planned, not a current self-service conversion path.
Review workflow
Review screen and control context
Assessment reviews the screen tree, tags, drivers, macros, missing files, and target HMI assumptions.
Receive review boundary
You receive a conclusion, risk notes, required next evidence, and quotation scope.
Assessment inputs
| Field | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| EBPro version | Yes | Identify the authoring environment used for the source project. |
| Source HMI model | Yes | Include the panel model and any visible firmware notes. |
| Target Kinco HMI model | No | Provide one if already selected; otherwise leave it for review. |
| Window count | Yes | Helps scope screen inventory and navigation depth. |
| PLC and communication driver | Yes | Include controller brand, protocol, port, and driver names where known. |
| Screenshots, PDF exports, or point lists | Yes | Attach screenshots, PDF exports, CSV lists, or XLSX point tables; project-package exchange is agreed after assessment. |
| Macro usage | Yes | State whether macros, scripts, recipes, or data logging are used. |
| External processing permission | Yes | State whether files or screenshots may be reviewed outside the local workstation. |

Questions engineers ask before sending files
Can EBPro projects be converted to Kinco DTools Pro automatically?
No. The current offer is a manual engineering assessment of screen structure, tags, drivers, macros, file risks, and target-panel assumptions. End-to-end EBPro to Kinco DTools Pro conversion remains planned, not a current self-service conversion path.
Can you generate a Kinco DTools Pro project today?
Not as a customer deliverable. Kinco DTools Pro project generation, including any skeleton, remains planned until real-open evidence is accepted and the result is reviewed for the specific project.
What files should I send for a Weinview or Weintek HMI assessment?
Send the EBPro version, source HMI model, window count, PLC and communication driver, macro usage, and external processing permission. Initial attachments should be screenshots, PDF exports, CSV lists, or XLSX point tables; project-package exchange is agreed after assessment.
Do you parse encrypted or compiled private HMI files?
No. Encrypted or compiled private formats are out of scope. The assessment works from material you are allowed to share and from reviewable exports, screenshots, tag lists, and driver notes.
