If a SIMATIC WinAC RTX-/S7-1500 Software Controller-/Open Controller-based system is to communicate with a Siemens control center, e.g. SIMATIC PCS 7 TeleControl, WinCC TeleControl, WinCC OA, or a control center of a third-party supplier using the IEC 60870-5 telecontrol standard, the IEC 60870-5-101 (serial), -103 (protection) or -104 (TCP/IP) telecontrol protocols can be used in the SIMATIC automation systems.

The SIPLUS RIC software libraries are based on the standard SIMATIC Manager (WinAC) or TIA Portal (S7-1500 Software Controller / Open Controller) and can be used on various, mutually compatible types of SIMATIC S7 devices – thus saving on hardware costs and programming overhead.

The libraries are supplied on a CD and can be used for all WinAC-RTX-/S7-1500 Software Controller-/Open Controller systems.

With SIPLUS Extreme hardware, telecontrol devices for an extended ambient temperature range (-25 ... +70 °C) and exceptional exposure to media (conformal coating) can be implemented using the telecontrol protocols.

All IEC 60870-5-101 (serial), -103 (protection) or -104 (TCP/IP) telecontrol protocols are activated via the email address siplus-ric.automation@siemens.com.

Note:

The SIPLUS RIC libraries for PC-based Automation include SIPLUS RIC libraries for:

• SIMATIC ET 200SP Open Controller, CPU 1515SP PC
• SIMATIC S7-1500 Software Controller
• SIMATIC WinAC
