2 Hardware Requirements
In order to work with the STEP 7 V5.4 including SP5 software, you need a programming device or a PC with the following minimum requirements for processor speed/performance, RAM and graphics capability:
Operating System Minimum Requirements for: Processor RAM Graphics MS Windows XP Professional
600MHz 512 MB *) XGA 1024x 16-bit color depth MS Windows Server 2003
2.4 GHz 1 GB XGA 1024x 16-bit color depth MS Windows Vista Business
1 GHz 1GB **) XGA 1024x 16-bit color depth MS Windows Vista Ultimate
1 GHz 1GB **) XGA 1024x 16-bit color depth *) At least 1 GB RAM is recommended **) At least 2 GB RAM is recommended
Use a programming device or PC with3the latest performance capabilities if you are editing extensive STEP 7 projects or working with hardware configurations containing several hundred modules (CPUs, slaves, I/O devices, etc.). In addition, you will need an external prommer for SIMATIC memory cards / MMC if you are using a PC and want to save your user programs to EPROMs and a SIMATIC NET interface if you want to use online functions to the PLC system with your personal computer. Additional information on Windows Vista: The “Aero Glass Style” can only be used with a high-performance graphic adapter. It requires:
- DirectX9 capability
- 128 MB separate graphic memory
- The performance of the graphics system architecture can have a substantial affect on the performance of STEP 7.
3 Software Requirements
3.1 Operating Environment
Operating systems
STEP 7 V5.4 including SP5 is a 32-bit application whose functionality has been explicitly approved and released for the following operating system states:
- MS Windows XP Professional with SP2 or SP
- MS Windows Server 2003 SP2 Standard Edition with or without R2 as workstation computer
- MS Windows Vista 32 Bit Ultimate and Business with or without SP STEP 7 has not been tested for the following operating systems; use at your own risk:
- MS Windows XP Professional with SP
- MS Windows 2003, SP1, SP1 R STEP 7 V5.4 including SP5 cannot be installed or operated under:
- MS Windows 3.
- MS Windows for Workgroups 3.
- MS Windows 95
- MS Windows 98
- MS Windows Millennium
- MS Windows NT 4.
- MS Windows XP Home
- MS Windows XP Professional (without SP)
- MS Windows Vista Home Basic, Premium
- MS Windows Vista 64 Bit versions
- MS Windows 2000
Important additional information:
- An operating system update from MS Windows XP to MS Windows Vista is not allowed or possible for existing STEP 7 installation. New as of this SP:
- If STEP 7 V5.4 SP5 is operated on MS Windows Server 2008, you will have to download a copy of the "Acrobat Reader" from Adobe that has been approved for this operating system.
(Example: If you have 512 Mbytes of RAM, you will require another 1024 Mbytes of free space on the hard disk for the swap file after STEP 7 has been installed.) Depending on the size of the project, it may be necessary to have a larger swap file, for example, when copying an entire project (twice the size of the project on the hard drive in addition). If the free memory area for the swap file is too small, errors may occur (the program could possibly crash). Additional Windows applications which run parallel to STEP 7 (such as Microsoft Word) also require additional hard disk space for the swap file. In order to ensure that the required memory for the swap file is really available, the minimum size for the swap file should be set to the above value. This can be set in Windows (for example, Windows XP Professional) in the taskbar in Start > Settings > Control Panel (in System > Advanced > System Performance > Settings > Advanced). You must make certain that you have enough free memory on the drive where the project data are located. If there is not enough memory on the drive, the project data may be destroyed during an operation (for example, when compiling an STL source file into blocks). We also recommend that you do not store the project data on the same drive as the Windows swap file.
3.3 Compatibility with Other Software Products
Rational ClearCase
STEP 7 projects must not be stored on ClearCase drives; that is, drives that are linked to a ClearCase View (MVFS).
3.3.1 Network Settings when Using other Software Products
If you are using other software products (for example, mail providers) on a programming device or PC with STEP 7, observe the additional notes on network settings in the section "Using Network Drives" (in Notes on Usage) in the second half of this README file.
3.4 Online Documentation
The online help in STEP 7 V5.4 including SP5 is split into two sections. You can find notes on the current context in the same way as with the standard Windows help. The general section of the online help is based on the HTML format. You can find more information on the structure of the documentation in Chapter 7 (in Notes on Usage) in the second half of this README file.
4 Installation
4.1 Installing STEP 7 V5.4 including SP
When installing STEP 7 V5.4 including SP5, you can overwrite existing installations of STEP 7 V5.1, V5.2, V5.3 or V5.4 whilst observing the authorized operating systems (refer to Chapter 3.1). You do not have to uninstall these STEP 7 versions and optional packages prior to the installation. However, you must uninstall older versions and their optional packages beforehand. In order to obtain the optimum display of the information during the Setup, you should set the color scheme in the control panel of your programming device/personal computer to at least 65536 colors. Before starting the Setup program, close all applications (such as Microsoft Word, etc.) and the "Control Panel" window, since you will need to restart Windows following the installation of STEP 7 V5.4 including SP5 so that all system variables can be entered completely. Insert the STEP 7 DVD in the drive. The setup program will guide you through the installation. The setup program starts automatically after the STEP 7 DVD is inserted in the drive. If you have disabled this function on your computer, start the setup program by double-clicking the SETUP.EXE program in the root directory. In the component selection box, select the Adobe Reader, STEP 7, the Automation License Manager, Adobe Reader and any other components that you wish to install. If you would like to change the installation path suggested in the setup during the STEP 7 installation, please note that you cannot install it directly to a root directory (e.g. D:) on your computer. There has to be at least one higher-level folder such as "STEP7", for example, D:\STEP7. These components will then be installed and entries will be made in Microsoft Windows files. The following notes are intended to help you make the correct user entries required during the Setup program:
- The drive on which you install your STEP 7 V5.4 including SP5 system can be selected freely. On some PCs/programming devices, you will not be able to select the drive via the selection list. In this case, simply enter the drive with its path in the appropriate input box (for example, "e:\Siemens/Step7"). Note that all STEP 7 optional packages must also be installed on this drive, so there must be sufficient space available (see the "Memory Requirements" 3.2). Avoid installing STEP 7 on a SUBST drive.
- Before you use STEP 7 V5.4 including SP5, Windows must be restarted. Only then do all of the Microsoft Windows entries become active. If you do not restart Windows, STEP 7 V5.4 including SP5 cannot run properly and data may be lost. If the installation procedure is aborted, you will also need to restart Windows.
Therefore, when transferring the license key to the hard disk of your computer, select the source medium where the license key is located accordingly, a floppy or USB Memory Stick.
Before you can start working with STEP 7, you must transfer the license key to the computer. There are two ways of doing this:
- While you are installing STEP 7, the Setup program displays a message if there is no suitable license key installed on your computer. You can then decide whether you want the license key to be installed by the “Setup” program or whether you want to install the license key manually at a later time using the “Automation License Manager” program.
- If the license key cannot be installed during setup, continue the Setup program without installing the license key. Then boot the computer and install the license key using the taskbar in (for example, Windows XP Professional) Programs\Siemens Automation\Automation License Manager
To operate STEP 7 as of V5.3, you must make sure the Automation License Manager is installed.
After the upgrade from V5.4 or V5.4 SP1 / SP2 / SP3 / SP3.1 or SP4 to V5. including SP5, the license key for V5.4 can continue to be used.
Note
As of STEP 7 V5.2, you can install the authorization / license key to all local drives.
The Automation License Manger prevents the authorizations/license keys from being installed on invalid drives or media such as RAM drives, diskettes or compressed drives (i.e. DBLSPACE). If the drive in a device is reported as being a "removable medium" and not, as usual, as a "hard drive", it will be treated as a CD/DVD, which means that no license key may be installed on it.
In the case of compressed drives, you can install the authorization on the associated host drive.
Read the notes on the Automation License Manager in the almreadme.rtf file on the STEP 7 installation DVD under "Automation License Manager\disk1".
Hidden files are stored in the folder "<Drive, on which the authorization/license key is installed>:\AX NF ZZ". These files and the folder must not be deleted, moved, or copied. They contain data required for the licensing of your software.
If you do not adhere to these guidelines, the authorization/license key may be irretrievably lost.
Note about using license keys correctly
- The USB Memory Stick must not be read-only. This means you run the risk of passing a virus from the hard disk to the USB Memory Stick. You should therefore run a virus check on your PC or programming device every time you install or remove a license key.
- If you use a defragmentation program, which enables you to move fixed blocks of memory, only use this option once you have moved the license key from the hard disk back to the license diskette/ the USB Memory Stick.
- When you install a license key, a cluster appears on the target drive marked with a special character. Some testing programs may show this cluster as "defective." Do not attempt to "repair" the cluster.
- Do not forget to transfer the license key to the license diskette/ the USB Memory Stick before formatting, compressing, or restoring your hard disk or before installing a new operating system.
- If a backup copy of your hard disk contains copies of license keys, there is a danger that these copies may overwrite the valid installed license keys when you restore your backup data to the hard disk, thereby destroying the valid license keys. To prevent a valid license key from being overwritten by a backup copy, you must remove all license keys before you make a backup copy or exclude the license keys from the backup.
Using the trial license
If no valid license key has been installed for STEP 7 V5.4 incl. SP5, you can use and install a trial license key supplied with STEP 7 as standard. You can operate STEP 7 with this license key for 14 days. When you start STEP 7 without valid license key for the first time, you will be automatically prompted to activate the trial license key.
4.4 Removing STEP 7 V5.4 including SP
Note Software products must be uninstalled according to Microsoft Windows conventions. Use the Microsoft Windows application "Add/Remove Programs" (for example, under MS Windows XP in the taskbar in …> Settings > Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs ) to remove your software package (for example, "STEP 7"). As an alternative, you can use the setup program to uninstall a program.
If you uninstall an older version of STEP 7 in order to install STEP 7 V5.4 including SP5, you must first uninstall any existing optional packages for STEP 7 as well.
- Close MS Windows, shut down the PC and install the card. The CP 5512 can also be inserted in during operation.
- The communication module is installed automatically after the restart (or after CP 5512 has been inserted).
- Under WinXP/Server2003, the Hardware Wizard is displayed. In the first dialog shown, select the option "No, not this time". Confirm all following dialogs (do not click on CANCEL).
- Then check the settings or select the desired interface configuration in "Set PG/PC Interface" ( .....> STEP 7>Set PG/PC Interface).
Observe the information in the online help under "Set programming device/personal computer interface".
When STEP 7 is installed on programming devices, the communication drivers are installed automatically and the default settings are accepted.
Setting of interrupt and address
MS Windows/XP/Server 2003/Vista:
The settings of address area and interrupt cannot be changed in MS Windows XP, Server 2003 as well as Windows Vista. The assigned values can be viewed by doing the following: Open, for example, in MS Windows XP Start > Settings > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Computer Management and then "System". In the Device Manager , you can view the values of individual modules. In System Information > Hardware Resources , you can view the reserved resources.
In BIOS of the PC, certain interrupt and address area may be reserved for PCI components. Please consult your PC or BIOS manufacturer.
Notes on Usage (Release Notes)
These notes should be considered more up-to-date than the information in manuals and online helps.
6 Notes on Configuring and Operating the
Software
6.1 How STEP 7 Fulfills the IEC Standard
The exact definition of compliance with the standard to IEC 61131-3 for the programmable logic controller (PLC) can be found in the NORM_TLB.RTF file in the subdirectory that you selected during setup.
6.2 General Notes
Special characters may not be used in file names, folder names, or project names. New as of this SP: Comments in modules, icons etc. may not be closed with the special character "". The contents of the windows are not automatically updated (for example, the window contents in the SIMATIC Manager are not always up-to-date after an interruption of the Online connection). If in doubt, use the F5 key to refresh the contents of the active window.
Screen savers
When using a screen saver, you should note that the additional processing required takes up CPU time and this can lead to the system being overloaded. Some screen savers are known to prevent the release of main memory components. This leads to a continuous reduction in the usable main memory.
Using virus scanners
New as of this SP: The following virus scanners have been tested with STEP 7 V5.4 including SP5 for compatibility:
- Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition V11.
- Trend Micro OfficeScan V8.0 (for all Windows operating systems)
- McAfee as of V8. The virus scanners listed above can generally be used in the standard setting. User data should not be stored in STEP 7 project directories (for example, Microsoft Word documents), since when you delete a STEP 7 project from the SIMATIC Manager; these user data are also permanently deleted. You cannot use the "Undo" function to retrieve deleted data from the Windows Recycle Bin. Moving (with drag-and-drop) selected STEP 7 objects (such as blocks) to MS Windows objects (such as the Recycle Bin) is not possible even if the "unavailable" cursor does not appear.
SUBST drives should not be used for storing STEP 7 or your project.
PC and TS adapters
If the connection is interrupted or lost when using PC or TS adapters for communication connections, check the power management preferences on your computer.
Downloading configuration data
When you configure the complete SIMATIC hardware, the configuration data are stored automatically in the offline database. The data are stored in the "System Data" folder under the user program (described as "Blocks"). If this user program is downloaded to a CPU with its configuration data, the data in the CPU become effective immediately, meaning they may change the existing set values (for example, a new MPI address). For safety reasons, it is recommended that the complete user program with the configuration data should only be downloaded when absolutely necessary (such as loading onto memory cards). Downloading a configuration also containing configuration data for a CP should be done via the MPI interface of the CPU. Downloading the configuration data to the CPU via the CP can result in the connection being canceled.
Handling system data
It is not a good idea to copy these to another module. This folder contains the configuration data of the hardware configuration and the network/communication configuration. The network/communication configuration data are data that are not just relevant to one station/module. In the same way, when loading a SIMATIC configuration from the PLC to a programming device/PC using the "Configuring Hardware" application, you only load the hardware configuration data to the system data folder.
'Remote Desktop' and 'Quick User Change'
STEP 7 does not support the "Remote Desktop" or the "Quick User Change" Windows XP Professional, and MS Windows Server 2003 and MS Windows Vista. However, if you wish to use these operating system properties with STEP 7, please note the following: STEP 7 applications can only be started in one session. If a STEP 7 application is started in a session via "Remote Desktop" or "Quick User Change", no more STEP 7 applications can be started in other sessions. Only one user can work with STEP 7 applications on a computer. When using optional software packages please note that can only be called up and operated by one user - otherwise this could cause mutual influencing.
6.3 Using Network Drives
Storing projects on a network
If the network connection is interrupted while you are working with projects/multiprojects on network servers and you then receive a message that a project/server is not available, exit all affected projects/multiprojects without saving
