Compatibility Tool
Compatibility information for Automation and Drive Technology is available in the Compatibility Tool of the Industry Online Support.
The tool is designed to support you in questions about the compatibility of various hardware and software products.
The database is constantly being revised and extended. In addition, you can use the tool centrally to download the compatibility lists of the separate product lines as Excel files.
The table below includes the links to the Compatibility Tool.
Brief Instructions
To query the compatibility information you require, you must first choose a "master component" (WinCC, PCS 7, STEP 7, ...). To these "master components" you can add more components (such as operating systems, virus scanners, ...). Once you have chosen the components you require, you can have the compatibility list shown by clicking the "Show compatibility" button. A detailed description of the tool is available in the Online_Help.pdf in the following table.

Table 01
Compatibility Tool: Updates in 2018
This video introduces you to the new functions in the Compatibility Tool.
- Selection of an operating system as "Main Product"
- Display of the latest release of the last two main versions
- Automatic recognition and testing of the installed products
Compatibility Tool: Manual compatibility check
This video shows you the ways of manually checking compatibility using an example.
In this example we use WinCC, STEP 7, an operating system and a virus scanner. You can extend the list to suit your requirements.
