Hi Guys,

In Recent Training I got the Information on the Step7 V5.5 are as follow

Windows 7

• Immediately STEP 7 V 5.5 supports the operating systems MS Windows 7 Professional, Ultimate and Enterprise in 32 Bit default installation.

I-Device

One CPU can be set simultaneous as IO-Controller and I-Device.

• Easy and transparent IO-coupling of CPUs
• Coupling of CPUs in various projects
• Integration under external controllers
• Reduction of PN-PN couplers (Transparent Net)

Shared Device

• Simultaneous access for more controllers to the same device
• Flexible allocation of channels and modules to different controllers
• Less cabling
• Less HW-effort
• Combination of standard- and fail-safe modules

User-specific Web pages

• Web2PLC transforms user sides into data block information
• Web pages can be generated with standard HTML-editors and filed on the controller
• Part of the STEP 7-DVD

Know-how protection due to module encryption

The program-code will be encrypted with 128 Bit on the PG, encoded transmitted and decrypted on the controller.
Re-Engineering is not possible.

Comments for the interface-variables in the KOP/FUP/AWL editor

• Immediately comments of the interface-variables can be displayed in the symbol information of the network

Innovations at notify system errors (SFM)

By downloading out of the HW-Config – automatic transmission of SFM-modules

• With the function „Systemfehler Melden“ STEP 7 offers a comfortable way to display diagnostic information
• The messages will be generated automatically by STEP 7
• Immediately modules for the messages of system errors can be transmitted directly to the CPU. This guarantees the consistency

Hardware Updates

Easy run of HW-updates directly via the Windows-start menu

No waiting for the Use it ...... now .................

What's New in STEP 7, Version 5.5?

The following subject areas have been updated:

Operating systems

As of STEP 7 V5.5, the operating systems MS Windows 7 Professional, Ultimate and Enterprise (standard installation) are supported.

Configuring and Diagnosing Hardware

· As of STEP 7 V5.5, you can create I-devices from numerous IO controllers.

· As of STEP 7 V5.5, you can use the PROFINET shared device function.

· As of STEP 7 V5.5, you can assign the IP addresses and device names dynamically.

· As of STEP 7 V5.5, you can configure media redundancy for multiple domains.

· As of STEP 7 V5.5, you can you can configure the isochronous mode for IO devices.

· As of STEP 7 V5.5, you can install hardware updates directly from the "Windows Start menu".

· As of STEP 7 V5.5, you can manage user rights for the Web server.

· As of STEP 7 V5.5, you can access Web pages of the CPU via a secure HTTPS connection.

· As of STEP 7 V5.5, you can configure keepalive times for TCP connections.

· As of STEP 7 V5.5, you can download I&M data for more than one module at the same time (using multiselection).

Configuration Changes during Ongoing Operation (CiR)

The restrictions in STEP 7 versions up to and including V5.4 regarding hardware configuration in RUN (CiR) for PROFIBUS when upgrading the STEP version no longer apply in V5.5.

Standard Libraries

· As of STEP 7 V5.5, the system functions have been expanded by the addition of SFB104 "IP_CONF" for program-controlled configuration of the integrated PROFINET interface of your CPU.

· As of STEP 7 V5.5, the system functions have been expanded by the addition of SFC99 "WWW" for enabling or synchronizing user Web pages.

· As of STEP 7 V5.5, the system functions have been expanded by the addition of SFB73 "RCVREC" for receiving data records and SFB74 "PRVREC" for making data records available on an I-device. These SFBs are only valid for S7-300 CPUs.

· As of STEP 7 V5.5, the system status list with SSL-ID W#16#xy9C has been expanded. This provides information on the configured tool changer and its tools.

· As of STEP 7 V5.5, the following FBs of S7 communication are included: FB28 "USEND_E", FB29 "URCV_E", FB34 "GET_E", FB35 "PUT_E". These are only for S7-300 CPUs and only on connections via the integrated PN interface.

· As of STEP 7 V5.5, the following two FBs for open communication via Industrial Ethernet have new names: FB210 (previous name: "S5FW_TCP") is now called "FW_TCP", FB220 (previous name: "S5FW_IOT") is now called "FW_IOT".

Report System Error

· As of STEP 7 V5.5, you can choose whether or not the status of slaves is evaluated when the CPU starts up.

· As of STEP 7 V5.5, the additional texts of messages are displayed or implemented in the "Message Preview", "Print" and "Print Preview" dialogs.

· As of STEP 7 V5.5, you can also download blocks generated by 'Report System Error' in HW Config

System diagnostics

· As of STEP 7 V5.5, there are two "Diagnostics in Hexadecimal Format" dialogs: one for PROFIBUS slaves and one for PROFINET devices.

Setting the PG/PC Interface

As of STEP 7 V5.5, you can use the USB prommer without needing to install additional software. The required functionality is integrated in STEP 7.

Know-how protection due to module encryption work with CPU 3xx version 3.2 and 4xx version 6.0.

Work with simulator not possible.

With windows 7.0 work SCL 5.3SP5, graph SP6.
