Hello Samir_a, there is no way to use PowerTags in PCS 7. PCS 7 is based on the PO license system. Regards |

Dear Thunderstorm, thank you for your reply. Then I need your help with PCS7 license. Could you please be so kind and review my attached PCS7 system architecture. Here Engineering Station with installed PCS7 v8.0 upd.1 software will be used for engineering of automation systems and operator systems. This ES will also operate as Operator Station. There are also 3 Single Operator Stations on the network. Please indicate what licenses will be required there for ES and 3 OSs ? Thanks in advance. Regards, Samir

PCS 7 V8.0 The ES license is now an ultimate license. But don`t confuse it with the AS runtime license. For download the program in the AS you need the AS RT license with the POs which your program has. Additional you need for each OS (also for your ES, which you want to use as an OS) separate OS Runtime license with the number of POs which are in the OS projct. You can see the needed number in your SIMATIC manager. If you have buy to less, it is not a problem. The licenses are countable. You can buy an additional one and the licenses POs will be added. For the AS Runtime license, you need one license with the sum of POs of your programm that you can load the program from the ES to the CPUs, it is independent of your number of CPUs. Good to know OS Runtime license: You need licens with the POs, which are direct in the OS project. |

Hi, your licencing should work. But I'm not sure if your AS RT licences are enough because your overall OS RT licences are more than 1000. Check out this FAQ for AS RT <> OS RT licence counting.... Its a bit tricky... like erverything ;-) |
