SIMATIC Automation Tool
You can use the SIMATIC Automation Tool to perform commissioning and maintenance
activities simultaneously on various SIMATIC S7 stations as a bulk operation independent of
the TIA Portal.
The SIMATIC Automation Tool provides a multitude of functions:
● Scanning of a PROFINET/Ethernet system network and identification of all connected
CPUs
● Address assignment (IP, subnet, gateway) and station name (PROFINET device) to a
CPU
● Transfer of the date and the programming device/PC time converted to UTC time to the
module
● Program download to CPU
● RUN/STOP mode switchover
● CPU localization by means of LED flashing
● Reading out of CPU error information
● Reading of the CPU diagnostic buffer
● Reset to factory settings
● Firmware update of the CPU and connected modules
You can find the SIMATIC Automation Tool on the Internet

PRONETA
With SIEMENS PRONETA (PROFINET network analysis), you analyze the plant network
during commissioning. PRONETA features two core functions:
● The topology overview independently scans PROFINET and all connected components.
● PRONETA also scans: configuration of the station name, IP subnet mask and
identification and maintenance data (I&M1..3)
