SIMATIC ODK 1500S

Open Development Kit für den S7-1500 Software Controller

The SIMATIC ODK 1500S supports the development of Windows and real-time library functions for the SIMATIC S7-1500 Software Controller and enables the integration of Code C++ higher-level languages.

The SIMATIC ODK 1500S combines PLC programming with programming in complex higher-level languages, such as C++, in the simplest possible way.

  • Integration of higher-level languages
  • Simple integration of Windows applications, e.g. Enterprise software, databases
  • Recording of production data
  • Integration of PC applications
  • Implementation of complex algorithms for real-time applications
  • Know-how protection
  • Re-use of existing programming codes and recipes

Windows library applications

  • Connection to databases
  • Communication with Windows programs such as Office applications
  • Connection to application-specific visualization software
  • Implementation of industry-specific protocol converters such as PV02, IEC 61850, etc.
  • Access to the Windows file system, e.g. with specific file formats

Real-time library applications

  • Integration of existing C/C++ algorithms into the control task
  • Implementation of closed-loop controllers or algorithms

Generation of loadable libraries

Generation of loadable function libraries takes place with Microsoft Visual C++ for Windows library applications and with Eclipse for real-time function libraries. By creating a project with the help of a pre-defined template, users can begin immediately with the definition and implementation of their functions.

On completion of a function library, function blocks are available that can be integrated directly into STEP 7 and used for loading and executing the functions from the control program.

The function libraries themselves are available following completion as DLL (Windows libraries) or SO file (Shared Object – real-time libraries). Real-time libraries are loaded into the load memory of the Software Controller by its Web server so that they can also be loaded and executed independently of Windows.

For Windows libraries, the complete function range can be used for Windows DLLs. Development is carried out with Visual Studio; the following versions are supported:

  • Visual Studio 2010
  • Visual Studio 2013
  • Visual Studio Express 2013

Windows libraries can be fully debugged with Visual Studio. Thanks to the asynchronous execution of functions under Windows, the real-time characteristics of the Software Controller are not impaired even if single-step processing or breakpoints are used.

A powerful trace concept is available for real-time libraries as single-step processing or breakpoints are not feasible under real-time conditions. To verify the code with single-step processing or breakpoints despite this, the functions of a real-time library can be called up and tested within a test environment on the development PC.

Licensing

  • ODK 1500S is delivered with a floating license which allows you to install the software on as many computers as you like. The number of licenses determines the number of computers the software  can be used on at one time.
  • The integrated development environment Eclipse, required for developing real-time libraries, is included in the scope of delivery of ODK 1500S
  • SIMATIC ODK 1500S can be purchased on its own or in a bundle with SIMATIC Target 1500S™ for Simulink® V2.0

SIMATIC S7-400

process controller: a powerful solution

Part of the SIMATIC process controller series, the S7-400 has been designed for system solutions in the fields of manufacturing and process automation. This process controller is ideal for data-intensive tasks that are especially typical for the process industry. High processing speeds and deterministic response times ensure short machine cycle times on high-speed machines in the manufacturing industry.

The most powerful Automation System within SIMATIC

Superb communication capability and integrated interfaces make the SIMATIC
S7-400 process controller ideal for larger tasks such as the coordination of entire systems.
The graded range of CPUs enables scalable performance and the capacity for I/O
periphery is virtually unlimited.
What’s more, process controller signal modules can be inserted and removed while the system is live (hot swapping), making it very easy to expand the system or replace modules.

Modular S7-410-Systems

The automation system AS 410 is the preferred system for new plants with SIMATIC PCS 7. Through the use of the innovative CPU 410-5H Process Automation the AS 410 covers the entire performance range of conventional SIMATIC S7-400 automation systems from AS 412 to AS 417.
You can now adapt the performance of your controllers precisely to the task at hand at any time and without interruption – without having to allow for the usual safety reserves.

Via interface modules the ET 200 pro is connected to the bus system, either the proven fieldbus PROFIBUS or PROFINET the leading Industrial Ethernet Standard.
ET 200pro Interface Modules are offered with CPU functionality in standard or failsafe variants.

SIMATIC ET200pro CPU 1516pro

The ET 200pro distributed I/O system is being expanded with CPU 1516pro-2 PN and CPU 1516pro F-2 PN. The new CPUs are based on the S7-1500 CPU 1516-3 PN/DP and offer two PROFINET IO communication interfaces.

The CPUs 1516pro-2 PN Standard and Fail-safe have a PROFINET IO interface with three PROFINET ports. The three ports have the same properties. In addition, you can implement a ring redundancy (MRP or MRPD) with ports 1 and 2. Ports 1 and 2 with M12 cable gland, as known from the IM154-8 PN/DP CPUs, are connected to the CPU by means of a connection module. Port 3 is a RJ45 socket that is permanently integrated into the CPU enclosure behind a porthole.

The 1516pro-2 PN and 1516pro F-2 PN CPUs support PROFINET IRT through this PN interface and thus permit short, predictable response times, even faster, deterministic data exchange with IO devices and a high immunity to interference from non-real-time data communication.
