Marion Posts: 5 Rating: (0)	I am using TIA portal v11 for programming my plc s7-1200 ,and i found opc server called Softing S5/S7 opc server. And after connecting my plc to the server, i want to import the symbols ,tags that i created with TIA portal v11 Professional. But it asks .s7p file format STEP 7 projects to import. But TIA saves the projects as .ap11. What can i do export the project as .s7p from tia? Or is there way for me to convert the .ap11 project to .s7p project? Thank you

Do you have tried to define your connetction in V11? There a option to integrate simbolic tag there and it is not necessary to import anything.

I want to use one of these two OPC servers below for connecting my plc to a scada software, Integraxor. I want to use TIA v11 for programming the PLC but for SCADA I cannot use WinCC because this is a thesis of mine and i need to use IntegraXOR for SCADA and a free opc server that is not a Siemens/Simatic for it. http://www.matrikonopc.com/opc-drivers/opc-siemens-s7-plc/base-driver-details.aspx http://industrial.softing.com/en/products/functionality/software/opc-servers/simatic-s5-s7/simatic-s7-s5-opc-server.html So my questions about them are, do i need to define a connection in TIA to an outsider OPC server like Matrikon or Softing? Can't i program the plc in TIA, download the program to plc and then somehow export those tags and import them to the OPC server softwares (Matrikon opc server,Softing) that both have an option for importing s7p projects?
