al V20 offers a large variety of new functions for existing products
Totally Integrated Automation Portal (TIA Portal) gives you unrestricted access to the complete range of digitalized automation services, from digital planning to integrated engineering and transparent operation. Shorten your time to market with the aid of simulation tools, boost the productivity of your plant using additional diagnostic and energy management functions, and increase flexibility via connections to the management level. TIA Portal provides users with a continuous engineering workflow and offers end-to-end standardization of automation through TIA Portal libraries that store tested modules for its user’s programs. TIA Portal also enables fully integrated engineering workflows based on the model of Continuous Integration, in which developers work as a coordinated team on automation projects.
Efficient engineering also means designing applications instead of programming them. Two new control program editors have been added to TIA Portal V17 for graphical configuration. The CFC Editor for Simatic S7-1500 can be used to interconnect function blocks as a continuous function chart (CFC) and therefore easily configure a signal flow diagram.
This is especially valuable for users who already use CFCs in other projects and can now use the familiar
program structure in TIA Portal as well. Developers can also create functions as a cause-and-effect matrix (CEM) by simply interconnecting ready-made logic modules in the CEM Editor for Simatic S7-1500 and S7-1200.
Siemens Digital Industries (DI), the innovation leader in automation and digitalization, is pleased to announce the availability of TIA Portal V19 is an enables fully integrated engineering workflows based on the model of Continuou
