Hi ed_die, You have to understand that there are two kinds of PO when using the CPU 410. You have AS RT PO, which means the PO needed for every technology object, for example a Valve or Motor. Next to that you have AS PO as well. This means the following: The CPU410 can be scaled to the specific project. The advantage is that you have the most powerfull CPU in house, but you can scale it to your specific needs. This scaling comes in the form of AS PO. As you can see in the PCS7 License Information, you have the lowest scaling-> PO limit = 500. When you come close to 500 PO, you must purchase an AS PO upgrade in the form of an expansion pack. You can then scale the CPU to your current needs. Note that when using a redundant CPU410, you need the same PO for each CPU. When you need 500 PO extra, you need to order 2x500 PO when using a redundant system. See the following FAQ for more info about the CPU410 controller and upgrading the licenses: Process Automation with the Simatic PCS7 CPU410-5H controller When looking at your PCS7 License Information, you notice that you have 0 AS RT PO available. You need to purchase AS RT PO.... It's a bit strange, because you have configured 292 AS objects, you have booked 293 (so this means you deleted one AS object from the project, but did not download it yet to the PLC. You can purchase AS RT PO in a minimum quantity of 100. That means you should have 300-293 = 7 PO left. Are you working from another ES? or did your AS RT PO get corrupted somehow? Please check Automation License Manager, because you should have 7 PO left. You can also lose PO when downloading your program to another CPU, but did not book back the PO. But in any case, it's time to upgrade your AS RT PO, 7 PO is very low when you need to expand your project. |

Hi, As described there are two types of licenses:
It looks like an AS in your project has been deleted or download complete is performed without booking back the used PO's. See for more information: Regards, Cedric |
