Unique combination of benefits
With the SIMATIC S7-1500 software controller, you can access the functionality of a controller on a powerful industrial PC. You’re then able to connect the controller directly to PC applications programmed in high-level languages like C++. The controller operates independently of the operating system and continues to run reliably even during a restart.
Efficient engineering
Like its hardware counterpart, the engineering of the SIMATIC S7-1500 software controller is performed easily and efficiently in Totally Integrated Automation Portal (TIA Portal).
Three-fold security
Thanks to Safety Integrated, the SIMATIC S7-1500 software controller protects people and machines. With Security Integrated, it protects the controller against manipulations and your intellectual property against unauthorized access thanks to built-in know-how protection.
