Quick Start

Quick Start Wizard via SIMATIC PDM

The graphical Quick Start Wizard groups together all the settings you need to make for a simple application into 4 steps.

To use HART or PROFIBUS PA, you will need a PC configuration tool: we recommend

SIMATIC PDM.

Please consult the operating instructions or online help for details on using SIMATIC PDM. (Application Guides for setting up Siemens PROFIBUS PA and HART instruments with SIMATIC PDM are available on our website: www.siemens.com/processautomation.)
