Application examples
The application examples support you with various tools and examples for solving your
automation tasks. Solutions are shown in interplay with multiple components in the system -
separated from the focus on individual products.
You will nd the application examples on the Internet (
https://
support.industry.siemens.com/sc/ww/en/sc/2054).
TIA Selection Tool
With the TIA Selection Tool, you can select, congure and order devices for Totally Integrated
Automation (TIA).
This tool is the successor of the SIMATIC Selection Tool and combines the known congurators
for automation technology into one tool.
An integral component of the TIA Selection Tool is the calculation tool for the design and
component selection of the SIMATIC MICRO-DRIVE drive system.
With the TIA Selection Tool, you can generate a complete order list from your product
selection or product conguration.
You can nd the TIA Selection Tool on the Internet (https://www.siemens.com/global/en/
products/automation/topic-areas/tia/tia-selection-tool.html).
SIMATIC Automation Tool
You can use the SIMATIC Automation Tool to perform commissioning and maintenance activities
simultaneously on various SIMATIC S7 stations and PROFINET devices as a bulk operation
independent of the TIA Portal. For example:
• Searching of the network and creation of a table showing the accessible devices in the
network.
• Flashing of device LEDs or HMI displays to locate a device
• Loading addresses (IP, subnet, gateway) to a device
• Downloading of the PROFINET name (station name) to a device
• Resetting of devices to factory settings (resetting interface parameters)
• Downloading of a rmware update to a device
You can nd the SIMATIC Automation Tool on the Internet (https://
support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/en/view/98161300).
PRONETA
SIEMENS PRONETA (PROFINET network analysis) allows you to analyze the plant network during
commissioning. PRONETA features two core functions:
• The topology overview automatically scans the PROFINET and all connected components.
• PRONETA also scans: conguration of the station name, IP subnet mask and identication and
maintenance data (I&M1..3)
