Powerful programming editors for efficient engineering

STEP 7 Basic V19 provides powerful programming editors with optimized compilers for programming the S7-1200 controllers.

• Ladder diagram (LAD)
• Function block diagram (FBD)
• Structured text (SCL)
• Cause Effect Matrix (CEM)

Tags trace for effective commissioning

The Trace Editor makes it possible to record signals in chronological order from the user program of an S7-1200 CPU. The graphical evaluation of the signals simplifies the commissioning of drives, for example, and helps search for sporadic errors in the application or user program.

Simulation of the STEP 7 project

With the S7-PLCSIM simulator, the function of the STEP 7 projects can be tested without any changes. The blocks can be monitored online as in the real control system and signals can be set. For this purpose, the TIA Portal’s own functions can be used as well as the functions included in PLCSIM, such as simulation tables, fault simulation and step-by-step (sequence) functions.

Scalable and flexible motion functionality

Motion Control applications with SIMATIC STEP 7 Basic V19 and S7-1200 become child’s play, even for beginners. The intuitive graphical user interfaces of the technology objects in STEP 7 Basic V19 offer the best support for the configuration and commissioning of PTO/PTI, analog and PROFIdrive-capable drives, as well as for troubleshooting. The instructions for controlling the motion sequence are standardized according to PLCopen Motion Control. The following functions are supported in STEP 7 Basic V19:

• Positioning (absolute and relative)
• Speed specification (e.g. jogging)
• Homing
• Motion profiles

Comprehensive library concept

The system has a comprehensive library concept for the reuse and simple standardization of frequently used program sections.

Elements such as blocks, tags, alarms, HMI graphics, graphic objects, individual modules or entire stations can be stored along with their parameter assignment in local or global libraries. This means that these elements are available for further programming tasks.

Security Integrated

STEP 7 Basic V19 comes with password-based know-how protection and write protection against unauthorized read-out and modification of program block content.

Copy protection offers greater protection against unauthorized copying of program blocks. These blocks can be linked to the serial number of a memory card so that the block can only run if the configured memory card is inserted into the CPU.

In addition, multiple user groups with different access rights can be assigned to the controller by means of four different authorization levels.

Improved manipulation protection offers a greater degree of security against unauthorized changes to the data transferred between STEP 7 and the controller.

Team engineering – simultaneous processing of a task by more than one person

Several individuals frequently work on the same project simultaneously, particularly during the engineering phase of an automation task. With TIA Portal V19 and the PLC proxy function, it is possible to develop control and visualization tasks in parallel. Using a PLC proxy, data to be visualized can be imported from a STEP 7 (TIA Portal) or STEP 7 V5.4 SP3 project (or higher) into the WinCC V19 visualization project in order to implement the visualization there.

The TIA Portal Multiuser Engineering option allows several users to work on the same project or a global library simultaneously. This results in a significant reduction in configuration times, and projects can be commissioned faster.
