SIRIUS ES engineering software (E-SW)

Intuitive, efficient and future-oriented – the engineering programs in the SIRIUS ES software family

The programs of the SIRIUS ES software family enable:

• Intuitive engineering from the word go
  The SIRIUS ES programs enable you to focus on your engineering task. Thanks to the intuitive layout and simple navigation, a clearly arranged configuring of device functions and their parameters is possible – online and offline. The task and user-oriented portal views, flexible screen layout, uniform look and feel for all program editors as well as the graphic network and device configuration all support you with this.
• Efficient parameterization for fast success
  Faster startup is achieved by using local and global libraries. Joint hardware configuration for all components of the application also supports efficient parameterization and easy networking of plant components. Last but not least, the integrated system diagnostics offer fast troubleshooting and efficient fault analysis, thus making it possible to shorten startup times even further and to minimize production downtimes.
• Future-oriented basis for innovative results
  All future product developments are seamlessly integrated into the TIA Portal. Investments made up to now are also safe tomorrow. To harmonize engineering in all performance classes, the SIRIUS ES programs in TIA Portal are scalable and upwardly compatible. In the event of an upgrade, existing projects can be quite easily ported to and integrated into the next product level. Previously existing SIRIUS ES Version 2007 projects can also be migrated with ease to the TIA Portal software version.

The next generation of SIRIUS ES programs, such as SIMOCODE ES V14 (TIA Portal) or SIRIUS Soft Starter ES V14, is based on the central engineering framework Totally Integrated Automation Portal (TIA Portal), which provides the user with a consistent, efficient and intuitive solution for all automation tasks. Thus, the TIA Portal is also the integrated working environment for the programs in the SIRIUS software family. The same operator control concept, elimination of interfaces and a high degree of user-friendliness make it possible to quickly integrate SIRIUS devices into an automation process and start them up with the TIA Portal.

The SIRIUS ES programs such as Motor Starter ES, Soft Starter ES, Safety ES and SIMOCODE ES are available in three versions which differ in terms of user-friendliness, scope of functions and price:

• Basic
  The basic variant contains all basic functions that are needed to parameterize devices. These include both the parameterization functions and also the operator control, diagnostic and test functions.
• Standard
  The standard variant contains the basic functionality plus standard functions. The standard functions include parameterization with the aid of integrated graphic editors, creation of typicals, parameter export, analog value recording and parameter comparison.
• Premium
  The premium variants contain the complete functionality of the software packages. Besides the standard functionality, this includes communication functions such as access via PROFIBUS/PROFINET and S7 routing.

Note:

The scope of functions depends on the SIRIUS ES program. See the individual product description for details.

Efficient engineering and startup with graphic interfaces and easy network and device configuration

Types of delivery and license

The programs of the SIRIUS ES software family are available in the following license forms:

• Floating license – the license for any one user at any one time
  • Authorizes any one user
  • Independent of the number of installations (unlike the single license which is allowed to be installed once only)
  • Only the actual use of the program has to be licensed
• Combo License – license for parallel use
  • License for parallel use of the TIA Portal version and of Version 2007 of SIRIUS ES
  • All other features same as Floating License
• Trial License (free use of all program functions for 14/21 days for testing and evaluation purposes, included on every product CD/DVD, available in the download file of the SIRIUS ES program in the Service&Support portal).

Following delivery versions are available in addition for the programs of the SIRIUS ES software family:

• Upgrade
  Switching from an old to a new version with expanded functions, e.g. upgrade from SIMOCODE ES 2007 to SIMOCODE ES V14.
• Software Update Service
  To keep you up to date at all times we offer a special service which supplies you automatically with all service packs and upgrades within the SIRIUS ES (TIA Portal) programs.
• License/software download
  Simply download your new software and license key from the Internet via the Online Software Delivery (OSD) platform. After you have placed your order in our mall, you will receive your login data by email, which will allow you to immediately download the license or software you have ordered.

Article number scheme for the engineering software

Note:

The Article No. scheme shows an overview of product versions for better understanding of the logic behind the article numbers. For your orders please use the article numbers quoted in the selection and ordering data.

Safety note:

In order to protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber threats, it is necessary to implement – and continuously maintain – a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial security concept. Siemens products and solutions represent only one component of such a concept.

Function Block Libraries for SIMATIC PCS 7

Advanced Process Library (APL) - faceplates and function blocks for control and measured data of the SIMOCODE pro library for PCS 7

The corresponding devices can be easily and conveniently installed into the SIMATIC PCS 7 process control system with the PCS 7 function block library for SIMOCODE, soft starters, as well as the AS-Interface. The PCS 7 function block library contains the diagnostics and driver blocks corresponding with the diagnostics and driver concept of SIMATIC PCS 7 as well as the elements (symbols and faceplate) required for operator control and process monitoring.

Types of delivery and license

The PCS 7 Function Block Libraries supplied on CD-ROM allow the user to run the required engineering software on the engineering station (single license) including the runtime software for executing the AS modules in an automation system (single license). If the AS modules are to be used in additional automation systems, the corresponding number of runtime licenses are required which are supplied without a data carrier.
