Please also see the screenshots. We are running on older SW on some of our machines. I need to install an Engineering Station to work with these machines. The WinCC in version 7.0 SP3 Upd.1. I have been told on this forum that the newest Step 7 I can use on integrated projects with this WinCC is version 5.5 SP 2 so I have installed this. I have also installed the S7 safety pack we have available. But after installing the various packages I am still getting some faults for missing updates/outdated versions. How do I get to know exactly what I need to install and are the missing updates etc. downloadable from the Siemens page? I tried running the the execute file under the "Required Software Packages"but it did not produce any additional information. Please see the screenshots for installed SW and fault messages etc. AttachmentDiv1.zip (152 Downloads) |

Hello ChristophD, Thank you for a very useful answer. I cannot see the safety modules in the version files - or how can I search for their versions? Below is an example (file also attached) - can you tell me the correct version of Step 7 from this? [snip]

Hi again ChristophD, Please also see the attached screenshots. We are getting closer bit by bit. I DL'ed installed the the missing SP13 for the safety SW and I DL'ed and installed all the HW updates that was available to DL and possible to install. Now the Safety SW got the right SP and there is not longer a warning for missing weight cell software. And as mentioned previously we will disregard the missing support for the Flex panels. There is however still a warning for missing or outdated HW software and many nodes are missing in the HW configuration image. So how do get the last missing / outdated SW in the right order?

hi, from the s7bas is it Winccflexible 2008 SP3 downloadlink: https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/en/view/100777999 you need the Compact/standard/advanced is not relevant whether you modify the panels or not. You open and work with a project which contains WinCCflex components. So the missing SW package pops up and tell you that. you can ignore this message , but as you see the project can not really used without the needed SW Package. you can also make a "Save as" with the option reorganize. then some parts of the project are removed for which no packages are installed, but then you have a project with some other content like the one have on the machines, but you get no message for missing SW :) .

Thank you again ChristophD, Please see the new screenshots. I installed the Winccflexible 2008 SP3 and did another HW update electing to install all the possible updates. At least I no longer get a warning for missing WinCC Flex SW. I did however get a rather long list of failed updates and I am still getting a warning for missing or outdated HW software and many nodes are missing in the HW configuration image. If it helps I can also attach a screenshot from an ES (with newer Step 7 and WinCC versions where all the HW nodes are present?
