(Order number: 7MH4900-2AA01) You can connect your existing load cells to the Siwarex FTA module. Pay attention, that the Step7-program is different to the Siwarex M module. You can find some Step7 example programs on the internet: https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/en/view/25296061 Best regards Siwarexi

The Siwatool software has the order number: 7MH4900-1AK01 Also you need a cable between the Siwarex FTA and your laptop: - 7MH4702-8CA (2 m long) or: - 7MH4702-8CB (5 m long) If your laptop doesn’t have a serial port (RS232 port), you have to use an USB/RS232-adapter, e.g. from the company ATEN, model UC-232A: https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/en/view/28391503 Best regards Siwarexi
