Also a driver for Modbus TCP is included. The SoftPLC can access standard I/O boards as well as numerous intelligent hardware boards available to control bus systems widely used in the industry. Examples for the usual programming tools are supplied. With the IBH OPC Server, a communication via Ethernet to the S7 SoftPLC as well as a direct communication in the same PC can be established.įor fast data transfer between the SoftPLC and other Windows applications, a DLL is available. The S7 SoftPLC has an integrated Modbus TCPServer, which is supported by numerous visualization software suppliers. The IBHNet driver can be downloaded from our homepage. Online functions are also possible using the Siemens ISO on TCP (RFC1006) protocol. If the IBHNet driver is installed on the PU, the SoftPLC can be programmed over Ethertnet. A SoftPLC solution eliminates the need for a hardware PLC and the corresponding communication processor.
The use of the SoftPLC is especially useful if a PC for data collection, process visualization, programming, or any other reason needs to be used anyway. The SoftPLC allows process monitoring, operation, and control from one hardware unit.

If a Hilscher CIF30/50/60 PROFIBUS card is used, the SoftPLC can be programmed or reached from an operator panel via the connected PROFIBSU, if the drivers are correctly configured. If the programming system is installed on the same PC, the SoftPLC can be reached directly. Data exchange with the SoftPLC can be established with S7 for Windows®, Siemens STEP7 or the TIA portal. The program of a S7-PLC or a Siemens WinAC SoftPLC including PROFIBUS DP configuration can be transferred to the SoftPLC S7-315 / S7-416. Even for project engineering and diagnostics of the PROFIBUS DP S7 for Windows®, the original STEP7 tool or the TIA portal can be used. Online connections can be established serial, via Ethernet, via PROFIBUS DP and directly on the same PC. Since the Soft PLC behaves like a original SIMATIC PLC, the programming tools S7 for Windows®, STEP7 and the TIA portal can be used. The advantage of executing a PLC program this way is, that the PLC status can be displayed in real time. The IBH SoftPLC S7-315 / S7-416 executes a program in the same manner as a hardware PLC.
