## Function

Siemens SIMATIC S7-300 PLC CPU with three I/O modules attached

As with other programmable logic controllers, SIMATIC devices are intended to separate the control of a machine from the machine's direct operation, in a more lightweight and versatile manner than controls hard-wired for a specific machine. Early SIMATIC devices were transistor-based, intended to replace relays attached and customized to a specific machine. Microprocessors were introduced in 1973, allowing programs similar to those on general-purpose digital computers to be stored and used for machine control.[1] SIMATIC devices have input and output modules to connect with controlled machines. The programs on the SIMATIC devices respond in real time to inputs from sensors on the controlled machines, and send output signals to actuators on the machines that direct their subsequent operation.

Depending on the device and its connection modules, signals may be a simple binary value ("high" or "low") or more complex. More complex inputs, outputs, and calculations were also supported as the SIMATIC line developed. For example, the SIMATIC 505 could handle floating point quantities and trigonometric functions.[2]

## History

Siemens Simatic N

On April 2, 1958 the name Simatic (composed of "Siemens" and "Automatic") was registered with the German Patent and Trademark Office (DIN) as a registered trademark of the company Siemens.

A year later, in 1959, the Simatic G[3] was launched on the market, a system that could replace relay logic with a hard-wired programmed logic controller (based on the use of Germanium transistors). The system was launched under the name "Building-Block System for Solid-State Controls".

In 1964, the Simatic N (1964) was launched (hard-wired programmed logic controller) - based on Silicon transistors.

In 1973, the Simatic S3 was launched, the first microprocessor-based Simatic system that implemented programmable logic.[4]

In 1979, the Simatic S5 series was launched, a series that was maintained until 2000. Automation systems based on Simatic S5 are still functional worldwide. S5 systems were programmed using the STEP 5 software system. In 1984 the Simatic S5 U (universal) programmable controller series is introduced.

In 1994, the Simatic S7 series was launched, a series based mainly on the S7-200 controllers (dedicated to simple automation systems), S7-300 (suitable for almost any automation system) and S7-400 (dedicated to large and very large automation projects). All controllers in these series allow networking, especially in Profibus or Industrial Ethernet networks.

Siemens Simatic S7-1500

In 1996 Siemens presented the concept of "Totally Integrated Automation", initially a concept referring to the interconnectivity of automation equipment.[5]

In 2009, the S7-1200 series of PLCs was launched, a series that replaced the S7-200 series.

In 2011, the TIA Portal (Totally Integrated Automation Portal) software package was also launched, a software platform dedicated to the complex programming of automation systems.

In 2013, the S7-1500 series appeared on the market, a new generation of programmable logic controllers intended to replace the S7-300 and S7-400 series over time.

S7-1200 G2, a second generation of the S7-1200, was launched in December 2024.

## Controllers

SIMATIC control systems (PLC) are designed to automate as much of the control of industrial plants as possible. Through the system inputs and outputs, it can monitor and control process elements (operation flow, mechanical element status, temperature, pressure) reducing the need for continuous supervision by a human operator.

The operating logic is stored in the form of a software program in the memory of a Central Processing Unit type control system. The automation system is modular and, in addition to the CPU, can be equipped with various digital and/or analog peripheral modules, as well as intelligent control modules. The modules can be configured centrally (mounted in close proximity to the CPU unit) or decentralized, close to the controlled plant. The range of controllers extends from small, compact controllers to high-performance PLC systems. What all Simatic controllers have in common is their robustness against electromagnetic interference (e.g. Simatic-S7 complies with the requirements of Directive 2014/30/EU on electromagnetic compatibility and climatic stress - e.g. 0 to + 60 °C ambient temperature during operation). Simatic is programmed using STEP 7 (formerly STEP 5) programming software or software from third-party manufacturers.

Siemens has developed more product lines to date. First versions were hard-wired, the first processor based series being SIMATIC S3

### SIMATIC S3

(starting from 1973)

S3 was based on hard-wired logic SIMATIC C3.

* Example: Simatic S3-111

###  Simatic S5

Siemens S5-95U-CPU

(1979 - 2000)

The S5 line was sold in various chassis configurations. Within each chassis style, several CPUs were available, with varying speed, memory, and capabilities. Some systems provided "fail-safe" control, used for safety applications or redundant CPU operation for ultra-high-reliability control, as used in pharmaceutical manufacturing, for example.

Each configuration was built starting from the central unit to which the various input and output modules, communication or modules for special functions were attached. The compact variants were configured by directly coupling the modules onto the support rail, the complex variants were configured by mounting modular boards in a dedicated drawer.

## Software

The first generations of Simatic control systems (Simatic G, Simatic S) were implemented using hard-wired programmed logic controllers. Simatic S3 was the first microprocessor-based control system that allowed programmable logic.

Simatic S5, launched in 1979, was initially programmed using special programming consoles and later using the STEP 5 software package, one of the first advanced PLC programming software.[21]

For programming the Simatic S7 300 and 400 systems, Siemens has launched the software package STEP 7, the Simatic S7 200 series being programmed with a separate software called STEP 7 MicroWin.

With the introduction of the S7 1200 and S7 1500 series controllers on the market, Siemens has launched a new software package called TIA Portal (Totally Integrated Automation Portal). It allows programming of the new generation S7 1200 and S7 1500 controllers as well as controllers from previous series.[22]

### STEP 5

Sample PLC program STEP5 LAD

STEP 5 (name derived from STeuerungen Einfach Programmieren = easy programming of control systems) is a programming and diagnostic software for the Simatic S5 series of programmable controllers, originally released in 1979 only on the PG630 programming consoles, under the operating system CP/M. With the withdrawal of Simatic S5 systems from production, STEP 5 continued to be offered by Siemens but development of the software package was discontinued. The latest edition is version 7.2 (with upgrade to version 7.23 Hotfix 1 with patches) and can run (under certain conditions) on Windows 10 systems and is offered by Siemens for certain configurations of Field PG M6 programming consoles.

STEP 5 was offered in two versions:

Step 5 Standard, which can be used for programming, testing, commissioning and automatic generation of documentation for the Simatic S5-90U, S5-95/U/F, S5-100U, S5-101U, S5-115U/H/F, S5-135U, S5-150U and S5-155U/H series controllers.

Step 5 for mini PLCs, limited to the S5-90U, S5-95U/F and S5-100U controllers and allowing only a limited number of optional software packages: GRAPH Mini, COM IP 266, COM 95F, COM DG1, COM 521 BASIC.

Software modules

PG685 programming console for STEP5 programming of Simatic-S5 PLCs

Since the first computers (Field PG programming consoles) had limited hardware resources (e.g. restrictions on RAM capacity), STEP 5 was developed modularly, in individual software packages that were launched (and loaded into memory) only when they were needed.[23] [SIOS ID:[24] 19417353]

LAD, CSF, STL

This module contains the editors for user programs. Programming of Simatic S5 PLCs can be done in one of the following languages:

* STL (STatement List, called AWL = Anweisungliste in German or IL = Instruction List according to IEC 61131-3). It is a low-level language, according to DIN 19239, similar to assembly language, with an extended set of instructions that offers great flexibility in writing and optimizing the program. Control of program execution is achieved using Jump, BE and function calls.
* LAD (Logical LADder, called KOP = Kontaktplan in German or LD according to IEC 61131-3). It is a graphical language according to DIN 19239 in which the user program is represented similar to a circuit diagram.
* CSF (Control System Flowchart, called FUP = Funktionsplan in German or FDB according to IEC 61131-3). It is a graphical language, according to DIN 40700, in which the user program is represented similar to an electronic diagram with logic gates.

XRF, COMP, REW

* XRF: This module allows the generation of cross references (XRF = Cross References, QL = Querverweisliste in German).

* COMP: Comparison of blocks in the offline project with those in the programmable controller (from the connected EPROM or from the connected online PLC, context-dependent), for example.

* REW: "Rewiring" function: search and replace an operand with another operand in all blocks of a STEP 5 project.

EPROM / EEPROM

It allows the transfer of the PLC program from PG (or PC) to EPROM (or EEPROM), from EPROM / EEPROM to PG / PC or the comparison of the program from PG / PC with that in EPROM / EEPROM. (PG = Programming Console, PC = Personal Computer).

Symbol Editor

An editor through which each operand can be assigned a symbol and a comment that can be viewed in program editors.

Optional COM modules

Various optional packages, such as GRAPH5 (for sequential programming), PG-NET (networking), KOMDOC (generate documentation), COM266 (for IP266 positioning module), COM723 (for WF723 CNC module), COM-ET200 (for distributed periphery), etc.

OB, PB, SB, FB/FX, DB/DX blocks

In STEP 5 the program can be structured into blocks whose execution can be controlled.

* OB: organization blocks: for program management.

* PB: program blocks: contain the user program structured according to functional or process requirements. When migrating a PLC program from STEP5 to STEP 7, PB blocks are converted to FC blocks but in the conversion guide they are assigned to FB blocks.

* SB: sequence blocks: blocks for programming sequencers. When using the GRAPH 5 module (software extension), the entire sequencer can be written in a single SB block.

* FB: function blocks: similar to FC blocks from S7 controllers.

* FX: extended function blocks: Similar to FB functions. They are not a new type of block, they are still FB blocks but, for certain CPU units, they allow the use of additional memory resources and their address area.

* DB: data blocks. They do not contain code and can be considered an extension of the working memory (the PLC working memory area, denoted F in STEP 5 and similar to the M area in STEP 7).

* DX: data blocks (extended): similar to DB blocks. They are not a new type of block, they are still DB blocks but, for certain CPU units, they allow the use of additional memory resources and their address range.

### STEP 7

(v1.0 - v5.7)

Siemens Simatic Step 7 Software Installation Kit

STEP 7[43] (name derived from STeuerungen Einfach Programmieren = easy programming of control systems) is a programming and diagnostic software for the programmable controllers of the Simatic S7, SIMATIC C7 and SIMATIC WinAC series.

STEP 7 can be used in the various stages of an automation project:

* description and parameterization of the hardware configuration.
* specification and parameterization of communication interfaces.
* programming of PLC automation logic.
* commissioning, testing and troubleshooting of automation systems.
* documentation and archiving of projects.

STEP 7 is designed as a modular software package that offers various utilities for the development of automation projects.

Simatic Manager: For the central management of all utilities and data of the SIMATIC S7, C7 or WinAC automation project.

Hardware Editor: For configuring the automation system and parameterizing the modules that can be set.

Symbol Editor: For defining the global tags used, the symbolic names, data types and comments for them.

Program Editor: For editing user programs, using one of the standardized PLC programming languages (according to EN 61131-3):

* STL (Statement List, called AWL = Anweisungliste in German or IL = Instruction List according to IEC 61131-3). It is a low level language, according to DIN 19239, similar to assembly language, with an extended set of instructions that provides great flexibility in writing and optimizing the program. Control of program execution is achieved using Jump, BE and function calls.

* LAD (Logical LADder, called KOP = Kontaktplan in German or LD according to IEC 61131-3). It is a graphical language according to DIN 19239 in which the user program is represented similar to an electrical diagram (American format - ladder diagram). In most cases the program displayed in LAD is easier to understand and the on-line debugging is intuitive and easier than debugging a program displayed in STL. However, in STEP 7 (up to v5.x inclusive) user programs are saved and transferred to the Simatic S7 programmable controller only in STL (AWL). LAD is only a form of displaying the user program that does not contain all the instructions available in STL.

* FBD (Function Block Diagram, FBS – Funktionsbausteinsprache in German or FDB according to IEC 61131-3; similar to the CSF language of STEP 5). It is a graphical language, according to DIN 40700, in which the user program is represented similar to an electronic diagram with logic gates. In most cases the program displayed in CSF/FBD is easier to understand and the on-line debugging is intuitive and easier than debugging a program displayed in STL. However, in STEP 7 (up to and including v5.x) user programs are saved and transferred to the Simatic S7 programmable controller only in STL (AWL). CSF/FBD is only a form of displaying the user program that does not contain all the instructions available in STL.

Optionally, STEP 7 also offers the following languages (usually subject to the purchase of a license):

* S7-SCL (Structured Control Language, ST according to IEC 61131-3). It is a high-level language, based on the PASCAL language, which allows the use of complex language structures such as REPEAT-UNTIL, WHILE-DO, IF-THEN-ELSE, CASE, etc.

* S7-Graph (Sequential Function Diagram, SFC according to IEC 61131-3). A graphical programming language, which allows the implementation of sequential control structures, based on the concept of binary Petri nets. An S7-Graph program consists of a number of steps, each step having associated PLC program actions / equations, and a number of transitions that allow the transition from a certain step to another upon the fulfillment of certain conditions.

* S7-HiGraph (Siemens-specific, not conforming to IEC 61131-3 standardization). A graphical programming language, similar to S7-Graph, that allows the implementation of advanced binary control structures, similar to state diagrams.

* S7-CFC (Continuous Function Chart, Siemens-specific, not conforming to IEC 61131-3 standardization). A graphical editor used to create the entire PLC program structure from ready-to-program library blocks. In the editor these blocks are selected in graphs, parameterized and interconnected. CFCs are mainly used for continuous process control, where complex open or closed loop control tasks can be easily mapped into CFCs.

S7-PLCSIM: A simulator for S7-300, S7-400 or WinAC systems that allows testing of an S7 automation project in a virtual environment.

OB, FC, FB, DB blocks

In STEP 7, the program can be structured into blocks whose execution can be controlled.

* OB: organization blocks: for program management. In STEP 7, OB blocks are launched by the PLC, with certain OB blocks being launched by certain events. For example, when the PLC starts (for most Simatic S7 systems), OB100 is automatically run, if it exists, then OB1 is cyclically run (after OB1 execution is completed, this block is launched again). When an OB block is launched by the PLC, detailed information about the event that led to the execution of the OB block is transferred to the OB block interface, information that can be used in the user program.

* FC: Functions: contain user program sequences structured according to functional or process requirements, generally sequences for frequently used functions. Each function returns a single parameter (but as an extension of the IEC standard it is possible for a function to return several parameters). All output parameters of the block must be processed directly after the FC block is called.

* FB: Function Blocks: contain user program sequences structured according to functional or process requirements. FB blocks can be called with different input data for each call (so-called instance). This data, as well as internal variables (for storing intermediate values) and the block outputs, are saved in a data block (DB) allocated when the FB block is called and managed automatically by the system. This DB block, also called instance DB, should be unique for each FB block call and can be generated automatically when the program is compiled. The data in the instance DB blocks can be accessed at any time from the user program.

* DB: data blocks. They do not contain code and can be considered an extension of the working memory (PLC working memory area, denoted M in STEP 7). They can be global/generic data blocks (Shared DB), instance DB blocks pre-assigned to a certain FB block type (Instance DB), or predefined blocks according to a UDT template (DB of type...). Both elementary data types (BOOL, INTEGER, REAL, etc.) and complex data types (ARRAY, STRUCT, etc.) can be assigned to the data blocks.

* SFC: System Functions: are functions integrated into the CPU operating system, e.g. block transfer functions, time reading, etc.

* SFB: System Function Blocks: are function blocks integrated into the CPU operating system, e.g. SEND, RECEIVE, etc. Their variables are saved in data blocks, similar to FB function blocks.

* SDB: system data blocks. These are data blocks for the CPU operating system that contain system settings, e.g. module parameters, etc.

### STEP 7 integrated in TIA Portal

(starting with v10)

In April 2009, Siemens initiated a generational change in the Simatic S7 controllers by launching, first, the S7-1200 controller family. For their programming, a new version of the programming software was also released, initially called STEP7 Basic V10.5. Later, with the launch of version 11, the new software version was integrated into a complex development environment called TIA Portal (Totally Integrated Automation Portal), which includes, in addition to STEP 7, the WinCC packages (for programming operator panels), StartDrive (for parameterizing variable speed drives) as well as optional modules, depending on the version.

In the versions integrated in the TIA Portal, STEP 7 offers various options for configuring and debugging PLCs:

Hardware Editor: For configuring the automation system and parameterizing the modules that are settable.

Symbol Editor: For defining the global tags used, the symbolic names, data types and comments for them.

S7-PLCSIM: A simulator of Simatic S7 systems that allows testing an automation project in a virtual environment.

Program editor: For editing user programs using one of the standardized PLC programming languages (according to EN 61131-3):

* LAD (LADder logic, called KOP = Kontaktplan in German or LD according to IEC 61131-3). It is a graphical language according to DIN 19239 in which the user program is represented similar to an electrical diagram (American format - ladder diagram).

* FBD (Function Block Diagram, FBS – Funktionsbausteinsprache in German or FDB according to IEC 61131-3; similar to the CSF language from STEP 5). It is a graphical language according to DIN 40700 in which the user program is represented similar to an electronic diagram with logic gates.

Under TIA Portal (especially for S7 1200 and S7 1500 PLCs) the LAD and FDB languages offer a complete set of instructions and the program is transferred to the PLC directly in the language it was written in. Program blocks can be converted from LAD to FDB or vice versa but can no longer be converted directly into other languages (in STEP 7 versions v1.x to v5.x for S7 300 and S7 400 the program was interpreted in STL and LAD and FBD were program display modes).

* SCL (Structured Control Language, ST according to IEC 61131-3). It is a high-level language, based on the PASCAL language, which allows the use of complex language structures such as REPEAT-UNTIL, WHILE-DO, IF-THEN-ELSE, CASE, etc.

* Graph (Sequential Function Chart, SFC according to IEC 61131-3). A graphical programming language, which allows the implementation of sequential control structures, based on the concept of binary Petri nets. An S7-Graph program consists of a number of steps, each step having associated PLC program actions / equations, and a number of transitions that allow the transition from a certain step to another when certain conditions are met.

* STL (STatement List, called AWL = Anweisungliste in German or IL = Instruction List according to IEC 61131-3). It is a low level language, according to DIN 19239, similar to assembly language, with an extensive set of instructions that offers great flexibility in writing and optimizing the program. Control of program execution is achieved using Jump, BE instructions and function calls. Under TIA Portal, the STL language was implemented especially to allow the migration of projects developed in older versions (STEP 7 v5.x for example).

* CFC (Continuous Function Chart, Siemens specific, not IEC 61131-3 standard). A graphical editor used to create the entire PLC program structure from ready-to-program library blocks. In the editor, these blocks are selected in graphs, parameterized and interconnected. CFCs are mainly used for continuous process control, where complex open- or closed-loop control tasks can be easily mapped into CFC.

* CEM (Cause Effect Matrix) is a graphical programming language in which cause-effect relationships are directly defined. The program is defined in the form of a matrix in which various process events, called causes, trigger certain reactions, called effects.
