We got a machine in that cam from a division we closed several years ago and we got the machine running but now I am going through all the support items like prints, software, etc.
I have many versions of Siemens Software and need help figuring out what they are. The machine has a WinCC application that is version 6 I think and it's 1 server and 4 web clients running on thin client hardware.
There are a couple Siemens PLC for Aux operations but the main PLC that runs the machine is a Controllogix.
As an example on some of the software I have 3 boxes. one is Simatic Win CC Advanced V12 (Upgrade V11->V12). The second box is Simatic WinCC V7.2 (Upgrade V7.0->7.2 Incl Options.The thrird box is Step 7 Professional 2010 / V12 Combo (Upgrade 210 /V11->2010/V12.
Each box has a couple CD's and a Dongle. I am confused about the WinCCV7.2 box and then a Win CC Advanced V12. The thing is all this was in it's original shipping package and shipped together? Is WinCC and WinCC advanced 2 different software packages? is that why the version numbers are so far apart?
I have another shipping package that has the same version numbers as above but are SP1 and have no Dingle(Thinner box) so I assume these are just service packs and work with the same Dongle? is this correct?
One of the hin boxes in the service pack shipment has update for WinCC Advanced and Update for WinCC Comfort/ What is WinCC Comfort?
There is also a box with a disc titled WinCC ProAgent 7.2
Can anyone shed some light on this. I have a bunch more boxes with other versions also. I thought Rockwell stuff could be confusing but this beats all.
