The SINAUT ST7 system

1.2 Components in a SINAUT ST7 system

Local data storage
One special characteristic of the TIM communications module used in the SINAUT ST7
system is the local storage of data (including time stamp) if there is a problem on the
communication link, if a partner fails or to optimize costs on dial-up networks.
Date and time always precise
The date and time of the CPUs can be synchronized across the network with the control
station, such as ST7cc, using various mechanisms. The systems therefore always have a
precise time of day including standard/daylight-saving time adjustment.
SINAUT remote programming
All the diagnostic and programming functions provided by SIMATIC and SINAUT for station
automation and SINAUT communication can be used online beyond Ethernet networks.
Alerting over SMS
The CPUs can transmit event-controlled SMS messages to mobile phones to alert standby
personnel. This is supported by both variants of the TD7 software (TD7onCPU and
TD7onTIM) although the range of functions is slightly different. This is described in detail in
the SINAUT ST7 system manual, volumes 2 and 3.
1.2 Components in a SINAUT ST7 system
The SINAUT ST7 system is based on the SIMATIC S7-300/400 systems and on
SIMATIC WinCC or PCS 7 TeleControl. It expands these systems with the SINAUT
components listed below which consist of both hardware and software.
