1. How do you read out advanced diagnostics data from the CP 1242-7
GPRS V2?
(12/28/2015) [109480967]
Using the configuration of the "Diagnostics Trigger tag" to read
out advanced diagnostics data from the CP 1242-7 GPRS V2.

2. What is the difference between the PROFIsafe address types 1 and 2
in relation to the uniqueness of the PROFIsafe address?
(12/28/2015) [109479905]
The PROFIsafe address is for the unique addressing of the F IO and
for protecting standard address mechanisms like IP addresses. Here,
the uniqueness is defined differently with the F IO of the
PROFIsafe address type 1 and with the F IO of the PROFIsafe address
type 2. The differences are explained below.

4. How do you define the constants in an S7-SCL program in STEP 7 (TIA
Portal)?
(12/28/2015) [52258437]
In Step 7 V5.x you can only define local constants in the
declaration part of the SCL block code and use it in the program.
Contrarily TIA Portal V13 differentiates between local and global
user constants which are defined in the block interface or in the
PLC tags.

4. Industrial Networks Education - Success through training
Digitalization
is the top topic in industry. The merging of the virtual and real
worlds promises significant growth. To be able to successfully follow
the path to the "future of industry", powerful industrial networks based
on proven standards are required – as well as the know-how to plan and
realize these networks and connect them to a corporate network. With
Industrial Networks Education, Siemens offers target-oriented training
courses on the topic of industrial networks. Based on the three pillars
Switching and Routing, Security, and Wireless LAN, participants obtain
comprehensive network knowledge, which can be documented with a
certificate on request.
5. Totally Integrated Automation in practice

--> Conveyor technology
Drives technology for conveying applications in automotive boydy construction needs to be robust and reliable. As well failsafe, communication capable, energy- and cost efficient. Therefore the automobile manufacturer VW in Emden, Germany realized the conveyors in the new body construction hall with new distributed inverters and motor starters.
