New functions Applications
Display and Web server
Backing up and re- You can back up and restore the CPU configu-
storing via the display ration to/from the SIMATIC memory card with-
out a programming device/PC.
Backing up and re- You can, for example, backup and restore the
storing via the Web configuration of the CPU to the PG/PC on
server which the Web server is running.
Display and Web When you export your plants worldwide, for

three project lan- stored on the card in up to 3 languages. For
guages for comments example, German - author's language, English
and message texts - internationally usable, Portuguese - end
user's language.
Trace via Web server When you enable trace functions via the Web
server, you have better service support. You
can send your trace recordings via Web ser-
vice, for example, to your service partner.
Monitoring of config- You can monitor statuses, errors, technology

Customer benefits
You can make a backup copy of an operational
project without STEP 7.
In an "emergency", you can simply use an exist-
ing configuration without STEP 7, for example,
during commissioning or after a program down-
load.
You provide customers with better service.
You get plant/project information for diagnostics
and maintenance requirements without STEP 7.
You can provide trace recordings for each Web
server.
You save time in troubleshooting.
You can implement additional Motion Control
applications with a CPU.
The scalable configuration limits allow you to
handle all types of application.
High machine speeds result in greater productivi-
ty with better accuracy.
