- Has anyone been able to successfully install Siemens Step 7 Simatic Manager on Windows 10? If so, can you please indicate the steps you took to make this work. Thanks in advance!Hi Michael and welcome to the forum. I’ve done a little digging into your questions and here is what I found.
This is a bit of a hack so try at your own risk:To install STEP 7 v5.5 SP3 (DVD update release) follow these steps.1. Download and install the latest 64-bit version of automation license manager here.2. Copy DVD content to any directory on hdd.3. Modify ./Setup.exe using any resouce modification software. Eg ResourceHacker. Add the line//this is the os ID of Windows 8 64bit4. Modify ./InstData/Setup.ini under section OS.PlattformIDAllowed = 1;2;3Add the linesWin8x64=1

Modify all msi-files to enable the ingore-button on installation failures (like installing on unsupported OS’s). Use any software possible to manipulate MSI-files. E.g. InstEd.Search for DLG_INSTALLATIONREQUIREMENTS_DISABLE_IGNORE. Change Action from Disbale to Enable.Run ./Setup to start installation. Press the ingore-button when told it’s not possible to install on running OS.Good luck and if you’re looking for an excellent text on this and Siemens programming – check out this book Automating with SIMATIC S7-1200: Configuring, Programming and Testing with STEP 7 Basic V11; Visualization with WinCC Basic V11 on Amazon, I highly recommend, it is excellent!Curious How Much Money A PLC Programmer Makes. Check out my article, it may surprise you…I’m currently working with Step 7 v5.6 in Windows 10. No issues so far!
Just used the DVD and all went well…Hi Fred.first. Thanks for your efforts for solving simatic manager installations problems.Second could you guide me to get simatic manager/step seven software,I don’t have them yet.Thanks a lot dear fred.Hi Mohammed and sorry for the delay in replying. First thank you for the kind words! Your best bet would be to get in touch with you local Siemens rep to get your hands on the software. I’m sure they would be more than happy to provide a quote and guide you on the software requirements for your specific needs.
We present on this website our Software-Tools that are available in english language (and other languages). You find other products (software and hardware) on our German website www.mhj.de GRAFCET Studio is a Windows application which can be used to create/design a GRAFCET flow chart according to DIN EN 60848. This may then be simulated on a PC. In addition, the GRAFCET which has been created may then be transferred to a device (i.e. a Programmable Logic Controller) at the touch of a button. Target devices: S7-1200, S7-1500, S7-400, Arduino Due, ... The GRAFCET flow chart therefore becomes a cross-platform GRAFCET programming language through GRAFCET Studio. GRAFCET Studio = GRAFCET Editor + GRAFCET Simulator + GRAFCET programming software FACTORY I/O is a real time automation sandbox where you can build and simulate industrial systems and use them with a hard- or software PLC. WinSPS-S7 is a programming and simulation software for S7-PLCs (S7-300 and compatible PLCs). With the on-board Software-PLC you can simulate your PLC program without any hardware PLC. WinSPS-S7 has also a hardware configurator that supports Profibus-DP. Many modern features like the intellisense feature or a web-server that enables you to watch variables on your smartphone increase the usability of the software. With SPS-VISU you can create a virtual plant with buttons, labels, belts, cylinders, lamps, limit switchs, ... SPS-VISU can also simulate the S7- (and S5) PLC program. So you don't need any hardware to make a virtual commissioning. SPS-VISU is compatible with WinSPS-S7, Step7 V5.x and TIA Portal from SIEMENS. SPS-VISU Micro is similar to 'SPS-VISU'. You can also create virtual plants in a simple way. For simulating the virtual plant you need a real S7-1200 or LOGO! device. This is connected via TCP/IP with SPS-VISU Micro. SPS-VISU Micro sends the states of the virtual sensors directly to the device. The resultis that youcantest your programjustas ifthe devicewiredto the realsensorsand actuators. You are able to find logic errors in your program faster than ever before. WinPLC-Analyzer is a PLC-Analyzer for S7- and S5- PLCs. You can record signals (e.g. Input, Output, Flags, ...) in different ways. You can use WinPLC-Analyzer to find sporadic errors or optimize your automation process. ComDrvS7 is a Communication Library (DLL) for Windows programs. You can use it with your own Software developed in C#, VB, C++ or Delphi. ComDrvS7 is splitted in two editions:
With ComDrvS7 you can read and write adresses of the connected device. In addition,there are manyotherauxiliaryfunctions (seedescription). More informations... 'Buddy for S7' is a backup and restore tool for S7-300, S7-400 and compatible PLCs. Buddy for S7 can handle also the hardwareconfiguration in your PLC. So you can make a complete backup and restore for your S7-PLC. You can connect Buddy for S7 over Ethernet, MPI-Adapter serial, Netlink-Lite, Netlink-Pro, without any additional software. If you want to use a SIEMENS USB Adapter you must install the driver for it. Buddy for S7 supports also backup and restore over a script. In this way you can create backups for many PLCs in one script every day. WinPLC-Engine is a simulation tool for users of SIEMENS STEP7 V5.x (Simatic Manager) or TIA PORTAL V11-V13. You can use it like PLC-Sim. Step7 V5.x or TIA PORTAL can connect WinPLC-Engine over TCP/IP. Create your own simulation board with WinPLC-Engine. You can place on the user interface the following items:
