It is not possible to update the PCS7 HW Catalog. But you can install a HSP (Hardware Support Package) to get more released Hardware for you PCS7 Hardware Catalog. More Info: http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/de/21148499 Get the HSP for PCS7 V6.0: http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/21729446 If the module you want to use is still not included after install the HSP, I think you should project the predecessor type of the module. If you stillwant to update the standart catalog please read the following faq. But please note that this is not the recommended procedure for PCS7. http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/de/22374877

After I copy from disk to the HSP, it does not show up in the list as availble to install. I suspect it is because it is for step 7 5.4, I have installed 5.3 SP2 HF7. If i understand correctly: So in this caseI would configure the predecessor (2BA00) in the HW config?

I had the same problem i had a damaged S7400 CP card which had to be replaced with new version and on PCS7 V6.0 I did the same procedure and it is working well Well only problem is that you will not be able to use the advance feature if the present system but it will have all the older features in it. have fun
