WinCC V7.3

SIMATIC S-1200, S7-1500 Channel

ET 200SP

DescriptionWinCC V7.3 SE provides the communication channel“SIMATIC S7-1200, S7-1500 Channel” for communication with the S7-1200,S7-1500 and ET 200SP CPUs. Communication to S7-1200, S7-1500 and ET200SP can be realized with absolute addressing and from WinCC V7.3 SE alsowith symbolic addressing.Communication to S7-1200 and S7-1500 can be realized with absolute addressingand, as of WinCC V7.3 SE, also with symbolic addressing.It is possible to establish a secure connection between WinCC V7.3 SE and S7-1500.

Characteristics features· Symbolic addresses and CPU alarming are accessed via online connection to

the CPUs only· Offline configuration can only be made for absolute addresses

Note Currently, no raw data tags can be used via“SIMATIC S7-1200, S7-1500 Channel”.

4 Ensuring a Better Overview of NumerousTagsIn order to ensure a better overview of AS symbols, there are various options toadjust the different views. The methods described below will make it easier tohandle the AS symbols and tags available.Moreover, prefixes can be used e. g. to summarize structures.

SearchThe search function can be used to limit the displayed AS symbols or tags to thedesired area.Figure 4-1

Find/ReplaceThe “Find and Replace” function can be used e. g. to include prefixes for certainblocks or structures in the name. Thus, you can define new search terms by meansof which you can create the views you want for every single search.Figure 4-2
