Synopsis

SIMATIC S7 programmable controllers are used to implement industrial control systems for machines, manufacturing plants and industrial processes. The relevant open-loop and closed-loop control tasks can be solved using the STEP 7 programming software, which has been developed on the basis of STEP 5, with its various programming languages. This book describes elements and applications of the text-oriented programming languages STL (statement list) and SCL (structured control language) for use with both SIMATIC S7-300 and SIMATIC S7-400. It is aimed at all users of SIMATIC S7 programmable controllers. First-time users will be introduced to the field of programmable logic control whereas advanced users will learn about specific applications of SIMATIC S7 programmable controllers. The enclosed diskette contains many programming examples written in STL and SCL and archived within block libraries. The examples can be viewed, modified and tested using STEP 7.

About this title

Review

"A must for the person using Siemens PLC′s. This is the book for the beginner or for the experienced Siemens S7 Programmer. Book covers the things you need to know or reference when programming." (Richard H. Quick, USA; Amazon 02/2008)
"Automating with S7...STL/SCL" is a reference book for any EXPERT programmer using Siemens S7 PLC′s. Hans Berger, the author, is the "father" of S7 PLC family (in a technical way). If you want to reach the EXPERT level, YOU MUST HAVE THIS BOOK!!!...." (ValRo, USA; Amazon, 06/2008)

From the Back Cover

SIMATIC is the worldwide established automation system for implementing industrial control systems for machines, manufacturing plants and industrial processes. Relevant open–loop and closed–loop control tasks are formulated in various programming languages with the programming software STEP 7.

Now in its fifth edition, this book gives an introduction into the latest version of STEP 7. It describes elements and applications for use with both SIMATIC S7–300 and SIMATIC  S7–400, including the applications with PROFINET and for communication over industrial Ethernet. It is aimed at all users of SIMATIC S7 controllers. First–time users are introduced to the field of programmable controllers, while advanced users learn about specific applications of the SIMATIC automation system.

All programming examples found in the book – and even a few extra examples – are available at the download area of the publisher’s website.

Enclosed with the book is a demo DVD of STEP 7 Professional.
