It seems that you always get the S7-300 OS, is it possible to get the S7-1500/S7-1200 OS inte soft plc? I have an S7-1200 project that I would like to use in WinAC RTX 4.6 Rgds Steffo

Maybe somebody has more information about this or can tell you another workaround. I have no more information for you about this, and i hope it helped you a little bit. best regards, bigfoot

There is currently no version running an OS from an 'Inbnovation' PLC 1200/1500. If you definately need special functionality which the WinAC RTX does not provide, maybe an extension via ODK (Open Development Kit) may help you realizing it.But this is dependend on the functionality. But I expect Siemens to be developing a new WinAC as well which will include an OS that is mainly identical to the 1500 PLCs. But if so, this may take some more time.
