When implementing an automation project, customers do not always have a computer installed with TIA Portal for us to interfere with the remote PLC. As we know, the most basic TIA Portal is also quite heavy (around 5GB) and requires a powerful machine configuration. So not all computers can install this software.
This software is very light (about 300MB), this is a tool to help us communicate with the PLC and perform some basic operations. Especially on the client side, they do not need to install TIA Portal software to handle the situation.
You can use all the tools to initially set the IP address. But once set, things change; the function of the various tools becomes dependent on the value of this setting in the program running on the PLC:
The crash was reproducible on my workstation as well:
Windows 10.0.19044
FortiClient 7.0.5.0238
In my case, if the Siemens SIMATIC Automation Tool is installed, the crash becomes reproducible.
Only a complete reinstall of Windows (including everything) was the solution - until now. (tool uninstall, reg. entry resets etc. did not help) According to a Siemens-forum, tweaking the registry might help, but did not in my case. Finally this comment solved my issue: -portal-v17-conflict-with-vpn/262291/?page...
In 1996, Siemens unveiled Totally Integrated Automation at a press conference in Rotterdam. Totally Integrated Automation now ensured both vertical and horizontal integration: horizontally from inbound logistics to the production chain and to outbound logistics and vertically across all levels of the automation pyramid.
Safety technology was also keeping pace with these leaps and bounds. In 2000, Siemens presented its Safety Integrated concept which now enabled the combination of standard and safety automation into one system.
In the end, powerful simulation tools were created to meet customer demands for complete plant modeling, virtual testing and commissioning. This has led to the next crucial step in the history of automation: the Digital Factory.
Based on the examples of an ultra-modern automobile manufacture equipped with Siemens technology for automation and drives and for power distribution in all steps, Siemens showcased Simatic innovations involving Profinet, Embedded Automation and Safety as well as its new version 3.0 of the Automation Designer, an engineering solution for the Digital Factory, at the 2008 Hannover Fair.
No matter what your specific task in automation or drive technology as well as power distribution calls for: Be sure to play it save by placing your trust in Siemens. Or in a sign that stands for for Siemens quality and expertise around the world: the sign of our Approved and Solution Partners. Thanks to their presence in our markets and proven expertise, our partners are the guarantee that all of your demands are fully met.
Siemens' SIMATIC automation products enable machine builders to reduce engineering and start-up costs allowing them to respond more quickly to customer demands. They include scalable controller and I/O systems, industrial PCs, HMI and SCADA etc.
Totally Integrated Automation, industrial automation from Siemens, is the name given to efficient interoperability of all automation components. The open system architecture covers the entire production process
