Overview of tools for commissioning support

Listed below are the tools that can provide support with configuration and commissioning.
SIMATIC WinCC
A library in the TIA Portal for SIMATIC WinCC is available for integration in an HMI system.
This library contains a specific number of channels and fields; setpoints can be assigned and
actual values can be displayed.
Example application
An example project and a block library for the TIA Portal are available for the SIMATIC S7-
1500 automation system to support commissioning of the heating control system.
Note
There is no example project or block library for Step 7 Classic.
HTML pages (SIMATIC S7)
SIMATIC controllers with PROFINET interface (e.g. S7-1500) have an integrated web server
that contains web pages for displaying diagnostics data. This web server can be accessed
via a standard web browser.
This supports scanning and saving of the firmware version, diagnostics buffer, tag tables and
module status, as well as monitoring of communication links and displaying the topology of
the plant.
In the event of a fault, the user can view the exact error message in plain text in the detail
view for the module.
Note
Requirements
This function requires the use of the example application or at least the data structure of the
example application.
