Requirements and Installation

Requirements

  • Correctly installed WinCC OA.

  • Valid WinCC OA SINAUT driver license (see Licensing)

  • Master TIM as gateway for the communication with stations (nodes)

  • Communication via S7 Industrial Ethernet (TCP/IP) network

  • The usage requires a valid license!

Since the WinCC OA SINAUT driver acts like a SINAUT ST7SC, it is necessary to configure in the SINAUT project one (eventually redundant) ST7SC. The connection settings from the configured ST7SC need to match the computer settings (IP address) running the driver and need to be entered in the driver configuration panel in WinCC OA.

Installation

A standard installation of WinCC OA is sufficient for using the SINAUT driver. See chapter Installation for more information on installing WinCC OA.
