S7-1200 G2 Migration Tool supports you in automatically migrating/converting an existing TIA Portal V20 project from an S7-1200 CPU to an S7-1200 G2 CPU.
S7-1200 G2 Migration Tool Introduction
As you know, Siemens SIMATIC S7-1200 G2 CPUs represent a new family of programmable logic controllers developed in conjunction with the latest version of TIA Portal V20. This new generation was designed to provide customers with a technologically superior and cost-effective solution that meets the demands for advanced technology and stringent security in the industrial sector. SIMATIC S7-1200 Generation 2 CPUs offer a more efficient and economical option that addresses the increasing technological requirements and security standards that modern industrial environments necessitate.
Therefore, the S7 1200 G2 Migration Package assists in completely modernising a TIA Portal V20 project from an S7-1200 PLC to an S7-1200 G2 PLC.
Additionally, S7-1200 G2 Migration Tool is a TIA Portal Add-In consisting of a Migration Checker and an application that automatically implements the migration. When the Add-In is executed, existing program components are automatically transferred to a configured S7-1200 G2 for the user. However, manual adaptation of some program blocks is necessary. The “S7-1200 G2 Migration Tool Manual” document provides step-by-step instructions for implementing the manual tasks.
S7-1200 G2 Migration Tool Features
To start with the S7 1200 G2 Migration, the necessary hardware and TIA Portal V20 are mandatory. There are two methods to achieve this:
- Migration Tool: This tool allows you to transfer all program elements from your S7-1200 CPU to the new S7-1200 G2 CPU. The extent of auto-migration in the current version is discussed in Migration Checker and Migration.
- Manual Migration: Alternatively, you can manually migrate your project. This involves copying and pasting the necessary files and documents, similar to how you would manage files on your PC.
Both methods will be explained in more detail in “S7-1200 G2 Migration Tool Manual“.
