Easy and fast
With SIMOCODE ES, you benefit from numerous advantages, including convenient parameterization in the device view, graphical commissioning via drag & drop, and online representation of signal states using straightforward measuring curves for diagnostic purposes.
Easy and standardized
The PCS 7 SIMOCODE library enables simple and easy integration of SIMOCODE pro into the SIMATIC PCS 7 process control system. The PCS 7 library contains standardized motor blocks and faceplates for controlling or operating and monitoring the motor. For the plant-wide device parameter setting and diagnostics, SIMOCODE pro is also integrated into SIMATIC PDM (Process Device Manager). This means that a standard, unified tool is embedded in the process control system for intelligent field devices such as SIMOCODE pro.
Advantages at a glance
- Consistent, uniform integration in SIMATIC PCS 7
- Standardized blocks for easy integration and optimized operation
- Easy-to-integrate safety technology thanks to SIMOCODE pro Safety
- Greater process transparency due to enhanced information density in the process control system
Easy and future-proof
Configuration and commissioning of SIMOCODE pro can also be realized in the TIA Portal without additional software.
As device configuration forms part of STEP 7, each individually-created configuration is loaded into the PLC and automatically transferred to the SIMOCODE pro devices connected via PROFIBUS/PROFINET.
Advantages at a glance
- Very simple operation; SIMOCODE pro configured without the need for additional tools
- Fast, simple integration in SIMATIC through shared data management and a uniform user interface
- The TIA Portal is designed so that all future software developments to do with SIMOCODE pro can be seamlessly integrated
