Information on this Getting Started
In this chapter you will learn how to work with WinAC Slot 41x as demonstrated by
an example of establishing a connection. We will perform practical exercises to
show you the most important screen-based dialog boxes and approaches.
It will be helpful if you are already in a position to work with a mouse, windows,
pull-down menus, etc. and have a basic knowledge of PLCs.
There are training courses in which you can add to the knowledge you have
acquired with Getting Started and learn how to create complete automation
solutions with STEP 7.
Requirements for working with Getting Started
To be able to perform the practical exercise in this Getting Started, you will need:
a Siemens programming device or a PC
the STEP 7 software package and the authorization disk
a SIMATIC S7-400 automation system
We wish you lots of pleasure and success!
