SIRIUS ES engineering software (E-SW)
Intuitive, efficient and future-oriented – the engineering
programs in the SIRIUS ES software family
The programs of the SIRIUS ES software family enable:
•
Intuitive engineering from the start
The SIRIUS ES programs enable you to focus on your
engineering task. Thanks to the intuitive layout and simple
navigation, a clearly arranged configuring of device functions
and their parameters is possible – online and offline. The task-
and user-oriented portal views as well as the flexible screen
layout, the uniform look and feel for all program editors and
finally the graphic network and device configuration provide
support.
•
Efficient parameterization for fast success
Faster startup is achieved by using local and global libraries.
The joint hardware configuration for all components in the
application also assists in the efficient parameterization and
simple networking of system components. Not least, inte-
grated system diagnostics offers fast troubleshooting and
efficient fault analysis, thus making it possible to shorten
startup times even further and to minimize production
downtimes.
•
Future-oriented basis for innovative results
All future product developments are seamlessly integrated
into the TIA Portal. Investments made up to now are still safe
tomorrow. To harmonize engineering in all performance
classes, the SIRIUS ES programs in TIA Portal are scalable
and upwardly compatible. In the event of an upgrade, existing
projects can easily be transferred and integrated into the
next product level. Even existing SIRIUS ES projects in
version 2007 can easily be migrated to the TIA Portal software
version.
The next generation of SIRIUS ES programs, such as
SIMOCODE ES V14 or SIRIUS Soft Starter ES V14, is based on
the central engineering framework Totally Integrated Automation
Portal (TIA Portal), which provides users with a consistent,
efficient and intuitive solution for all automation tasks. Thus, the
TIA Portal is also the integrated working environment for the
programs in the SIRIUS software family. The same operator
control concept, the elimination of interfaces and a high degree
of user-friendliness make it possible to quickly integrate SIRIUS
devices into an automation process and start them up with the
TIA Portal.
The SIRIUS ES programs such as
Motor Starter ES,
Soft Starter ES, Safety ES and SIMOCODE ES are available in
three versions, which differ in terms of user-friendliness, scope
of functions and price:
• Basic
The basic variant contains all basic functions that are needed
to parameterize devices. These include both parameterization
functions and also operator control, diagnostics and test
functions.
• Standard
The standard variant contains the basic functionality plus
standard functions. The standard functions include
parameterization with the aid of integrated graphic editors,
creation of typicals, parameter export, analog value recording
and parameter comparison.
• Premium
The premium variants contain the complete functionality of the
software packages. Besides the standard functionality, this
includes communication functions such as access via
PROFIBUS/PROFINET and S7 routing.
Note:
The scope of functions depends on the SIRIUS ES program,
