2.1 Installing and uninstalling the block library
The setup program of the included software installs the block library automa-
tically.
Installation is menu controlled. Call the setup program with the usual
Windows 95 standard procedure for software installation.
Setup installs the basic blocks for the PLC in the PCS 7 Basis Blocks library
of the SIMATIC S7 catalog.
If setup detects an existing installation on the system, a corresponding
prompt pops up, offering you the following choices:
• Abort installation (in order to uninstall the old software version under
Windows95 and the restart installation) or
• Continue installation and overwrite the old version with the new one.
Considering clean software maintenance, you should uninstall an existing old
version before you install the new one. To simply overwrite an old version
and then to uninstall it bears the risk that some components of the old instal-
lation might not be deleted.
Details on installing and uninstalling STEP 7 software is found in
Chapter 2.3 of the STEP 7 documentation /31/.
Setup also installs the screen software in systems operating with WinCC.
Information on the use of blocks in CFC is found in the ”CFC for S7 and M7,
Graphic connection of technological functions” User Manual.
