Software modules supply the faceplate of the Simatic PCS 7 user interface with operating and diagnostic data, generate messages and guarantee connection to the Simatic PCS 7 maintenance system. This supports plant operation within contractually agreed energy supply conditions and enables the selective optimization of power consumption.ДЇor 24 volt power supply concepts, there is a new library containing modules and faceplates for the direct integration of Sitop power supplies in Simatic PCS 7. The load management functions to control loads such as drives are a constituent part of the technology library and can be implemented. To avoid load peaks in the power supply, the new version of PCS 7 also offers integrated monitoring of all energy-relevant consumption data for a complete plant. This reduces the work entailed in compiling PCS 7 documentation. In Simatic PCS 7 version 8.2, mass data engineering has also been extended: for instance technological engineering with function, system and layout plans and the relevant documents for Simatic PCS 7 projects. The Logic Matrix can be processed, exported or imported with Microsoft Excel. It allows the efficient switching of interlock statuses in a production plant in compliance with the cause and effect principle. The Logic Matrix plays a key role in ensuring efficient plant engineering. The group view visualizes existing measuring points, making operation faster and more intuitive for plant personnel. The Operator Trend View tool depicts the process sequence in the form of trend graphs for a rapid overview, helping the operator achieve optimized plant monitoring and process control. The new version of Simatic PCS 7 supports operators with a range of search and visualization functions: one of these is the measuring point browser, which accelerates the selective search for measuring points with relevant plant information. By enabling the parameterization of field devices, the PDM solutions help improve servicing productivity. Diagnosis, maintenance, parameterization, configuration and commissioning can be performed by mobile terminals with standard browsers as well as by any optional computer within a system.

Simatic PDM (Process Device Manager) supports plant-wide access to field devices. This allows information such as production characteristics, trend or alarm functions to be viewed at any time from any location using smartphones or tablets вЂ“ no matter which operating system is used. The integration of mobile terminals in Simatic PCS 7 has also been extended.

For this, operators can use extensive configuration possibilities for individual and secured online access to the operating and monitoring level of a production plant, enabling the implementation of benefits such as remote control room concepts. Web systems can now also be operated and observed over the Intranet/Internet with Simatic PCS 7, for instance. To allow production processes to run with the greatest possible stability and efficiency, Version 8.2 of Simatic PCS 7 offers networked plant monitoring. Plant engineers will also benefit from more efficient engineering solutions, while operators will find the system even more convenient in daily operation due to greater system availability and lower overall running costs. JTo meet the rising demands of automation, Siemens has further developed its Simatic PCS 7 process control system and released Version 8.2, which comes with a range of functionalities to improve user convenience,as well as the performance and efficiency of the process control system over the entire life cycle of process plants вЂ“ from the planning stage through to maintenance.
