Hi there, I have an application in hand that needs to be converted to something newer/better The system in hand comprises 1. The Main Rack contains the CPU (TI545 and 386/ATM)and I/O cards and is housed in the control room. PLC programmed using APT 2. The Extension Rack contains I/O cards and is located remotely 3. The HMI is located beside the Main Rack and consists of a PC running WIN7 PRO 32-bit and Wonderware InTouch communicating with the PLC via an Ethernet switch. 4. An engineering station consisting of a laptop PC is located beside the HMI and is used to maintain the PLC program PLC I/O COUNT as following: DI-64 D0-64 AI-48 RTD-40 AO-24 ATTACHED PICTURES WITH MAIN RACK We identify two options: to replace the whole system using a small PCS7 system or to keep Wonderware and replace the TI system with an S7 317 configuration.based on cost customer wants to select the S7 317 solution. What do you think? Is it even possbile to replace APTcode with S7 or it is too risky? thanks and best regards, Lucian AttachmentPHOTOS_MAIN_RACK.zip (852 Downloads) |
