The SITRANS Library for SIMATIC PCS 7 extends the standard functionality of the SIMATIC PCS 7 process control system concentrated in the SIMATIC PCS 7 Advanced Process Library (APL) with technological blocks and faceplates for device-specific functions of the SITRANS field devices.
Benefits
The SITRANS Library allows you to easily operate all device functions, such as dosing, totalizer, min/max pointer, path diagnostic, alarm diagnostics, zero point adjustment (ZPA), etc. In addition, process related diagnostic information is also provided.
The SITRANS Library is based on the modern design of the Advanced Process Library (APL). Together with the APL, the SITRANS Library enables you to create harmonic overall solutions with a consistent look & feel and optimum use of the functions of the SITRANS field devices in many industries.
It helps accelerate the engineering process, reduces the time-to-market, and simplifies process control.
Note:
SITRANS Library V13 will support PCS 7 9.1 SP1 or higher.
Application
The SITRANS Library is best used in combination with SIMATIC PCS 7 and SITRANS field devices.
