优势
Efficientengineering
The seamless integration of SIMATIC Controllers into the commonTIA Portal engineering framework permits the integrated storage ofdata, the smart library concept, and a uniform operatingphilosophy. This makes the use of universal functions particularlyeasy.
Variety of diagnosticoptions
An efficient error analysis and fast error localization with thenew uniform display concept – plain text information on the errormessage in TIA Portal, on the HMI, and in the web server – shortenscommissioning times and minimizes production downtimes. SIMATICS7-1200 offers you a diagnostic functionality that is alreadyintegrated in the system, without the need for any furtherprogramming.
Innovative design
The SIMATIC S7-1200 Basic Controller can be perfectly adapted tothe automation task at hand thanks to its comprehensive expansionoptions. The modular board concept permits an easy expansion of thecontroller without changing the physical size. Device replacementis simple, without rewiring through terminal strips.
Safety Integrated
Fail-safe automation is as easy to program as standardautomation, and PROFIsafe devices are connected via PROFINET.
TechnologyIntegrated
Simple Motion Control applications, fast counting and measuringtasks, as well as closed-loop control systems (PID) are integratedand can be implemented without additional expansion boards.
Security Integrated
Secured communication, know-how protection, copy protection andaccess protection prevent manipulation, opening and duplication ofblocks by unauthorized persons, and thus protect your algorithm orprocess.
应用
SIMATIC S7-1200 控制器具有高速计数器、脉宽调制、脉冲序列输出、速度控制和定位等集成技术工艺功能，
适用于温度控制、泵和风机控制以及包括包装机械在内的传送带技术。
