See the following recent discussion on the forum: Siemens software and linux and the following Siemens catalog for Industrial communications: Catalog IK PI 2012: https://www.services.siemens.co.uk/LiteratureOnline/files/A&D%20Catalogues/Sensors%20&%20Communication/SC%20IC%20(Industrial%20Communication)/2012/E86060-K6710-A101-B7-7600%20-%20%20IK%20PI%202012%20Chapter%2002.pdf Hope this helps, Daniel Chartier Attachment Simatic Net Linux.jpg (81 Downloads)

Smartbit Posts: 10 Rating: (0)	Hello Dchartier,After reviewing the information I am left with some questions. I guess the best option for us would be the softnet-S7/linux pakkage. But in the info only the S7-200 series is mentioned. Wil it also operate with a S7-1200? I also have to hook up 3 RF-ID antenna's. Which CPU wil be the better choise, the 1200 or the 200?
