I'm new to the siemens kit and I'm looking to set up a training system using step7/wincc. What would be the minimum software/hardware required to do this. I am totally confused with the amount ofinformation on the Siemens website, soI posted thequestion here.

Thanks

You have given us little information, such as STEP 7 "Classic" or "TIA Portal" and for WinCC "Flexible" "Tia Portal" or "WinCC V7"?

• The optimum solution for CPU in such a case would be a compact CPU /with onboard DP/PN Port and some onboard modules like"CPU 314C-2 PN/DP".If you don't need options mentioned, select a smaller CPU without those.
  
  
• STEP 7 Lite may be a help for basic configuration, but in case of network config or other complex tasks, you need STEP 7 professional.
  
  
  
• I think WINCC 7.2 is not a cheap selection for a humble training kit,you try cheaper local HMI with very limited number of tags

Contact your local SIEMENS representative for more information regarding the options/ their offers and select the best based on your budget.

Hello,

As Ste39 Explain in post you have to Provied more Detail About the Training Setup you want,

Like S7-200/300/400/1200/1500,
Any HMI or WinCC PC System in Setup.
No of I/O's in the System,
any No. of RIO Like ET200S/Pro/SP

As you are asking for the minimum requirements, so let me tell you that you will need only Step 7 and PLC Sim only as a simulation tool. This will help you for the starting and you will find it enough and sufficient.

To have hardware Training kit you have two choices :

1) To buy one fromSiemens

2) To make it your self (This will be so hard to be a start)
