Siemens Building Technologies SIMATIC S7 SCADA system interface CK1N9827en
Landis & Staefa Division 09.03.2001
System configuration
Sample configuration of a plant incorporating a SCADA system:
This configuration consists of a SCADA system, a SIMATIC net bus system, SICLIMAT
automation stations based on the SIMATIC S7-300 / 400, and, as options, the
SICLIMAT OP7/17 local operator panel and the SICLIMAT X-PG engineering tool. The
engineering tool is temporarily connected in the engineering phase.
Software
Through the SCADA interface, a SCADA system can perform the following functions:
• Operation
• Monitoring
• Signalling
The software package for the S7-SCADA interface includes the operating, monitoring
and signalling data for all data points of an automation station, and comprises:
• Interface for the signalling system as a data range in the SIMATIC S7
• Interface for operation and monitoring as a data range in the SIMATIC S7
• Software for data acquisition and for implementing user commands in the automation
station
• Import file for the SCADA system, with
• Variable structures
• User addresses
• Unit text and message text
• Interface documentation
• Description of the SICLIMAT objects and parameters
The user is supplied with a run-time licence for the SCADA interface.
The SICLIMAT automation station software and the SCADA interface in the S7 are
engineered from start to finish with the SICLIMAT automation station engineering tool.
When the automation software has been engineered with this tool, the complete
SCADA interface is generated automatically, including the documentation and the
SCADA import file. This ensures consistency in the automation software, the
