How do you determine the release status of a SIMATIC device or module?
The release status (also known as product status or functional status)
describes the current hardware status of a product compared to the status
at the time of market launch. It is used for "versioning" the hardware
and is an important indicator of technical changes that have occurred
over the product life cycle.
This FAQ response shows you where to find this information on the device.
