Software Update Service for SIMATIC PCS 7

Siemens offers a low-cost Software Update Service (SUS) for the SIMATIC PCS 7 software. If you utilize this service, you partici- pate in the further development of the SIMATIC PCS 7 software you are using, and are always in possession of the latest release versions. You can participate in the Software Update Service for SIMATIC PCS 7 by purchasing SUS packages, and is only pos- sible on the basis of the current software versions at the time of purchase.

The SUS packages represent a structural division of the SIMATIC PCS 7 software product range using functional and system-specific aspects. The number and composition of the package components identified as list elements are mainly characterized by license aspects (see "Design" for structure and contents). A list element can represent a single software product or also be a synonym for several products of the same type.

When purchasing one SUS package, you automatically receive all upgrades and ServicePacks for the software referred to in this SUS package for one year. Within this period of one year, you are therefore authorized to update one corresponding license from your stock for each list element in this package. The total num- ber of SUS packages of one type which you require is therefore determined by the list element which includes most of the soft- ware licenses you use.

Delivery is to the address entered in the order. An SUS is auto- matically extended for a further year unless canceled no later than 3 months prior to expiration. Cancellation must be made in writing, and must be sent to the dispatch center with reference to the contract number.

Software Update Service for TIA products

In addition to the SUS for the SIMATIC PCS 7 process control system, there is also an SUS for SIMATIC PCS 7 products used in a different context (CFC, SIMATIC PDM) within the scope of Totally Integrated Automation (TIA). In the case of SIMATIC PDM, this is identical to the SUS PDM package for the Software Up- date Service for SIMATIC PCS 7.

The SUS range is rounded-off by the SUS for SIMATIC S7 prod- ucts used in the context of SIMATIC PCS 7, e.g. SUS S7-PLCSIM.
