TIA Portal · Step 7 · SIMATIC
Siemens PLC, HMI, and drive programming.
Step 5
Outdated, still running. We support it, and we will talk through a staged move off S5 before spare parts decide for you.
S7-300, S7-400, and SIMATIC Manager
Changes to an existing S7-300 or S7-400 program in STEP 7 (SIMATIC Manager) or TIA Portal, or a new one written from scratch. Send the base project and the symptom.
TIA Portal — any version
We carry licensing for current TIA Portal versions. S7-1200, S7-1500, Comfort Panels, and WinCC inside the portal.
Drives, PROFINET, and I/O
SINAMICS and third-party drives, PROFINET, PROFIBUS, Ethernet, and I/O checkout.

From the floor
Answered on The Floor.
- S7-1500 watchdog after a TIA V19 download — cell stays in STOP
- PROFINET device name lost after a switch replacement — ET200SP won't assign
- First S7-1500H redundant pair — what bit you on switchover that the brochure skipped?
- WinCC Unified vs Comfort for a new line we have to support 15 years
- PID_Compact on a 1500 — good in manual, oscillates in auto after a valve trim
- GSDML version on an ET200SP doesn't match TIA — update the file or the module?
Straight answers
Siemens programming, answered.
Do you still support Siemens Step 5?
Yes. Step 5 is outdated but still running in plenty of plants, and we support it. We will also talk through a staged move off S5 before spare parts set the schedule for you.
Which TIA Portal versions and controllers do you work with?
We carry licensing for current TIA Portal versions and work on S7-300 and S7-400 controllers in STEP 7 (SIMATIC Manager) or TIA Portal, S7-1200 and S7-1500 controllers, Comfort Panels, and WinCC inside the portal.
Can you migrate a legacy Siemens program to TIA Portal?
Yes. We work from legacy Step 5 through current TIA Portal, including migrations off retired platforms. Send the existing project and we will scope the move around your outage window. How it runs: S7-300 to S7-1500 and S5 (Step 5) to TIA Portal.
Do you set up SINAMICS drives and PROFINET networks?
Yes. SINAMICS and third-party drives, PROFINET, PROFIBUS, and Ethernet networks, and I/O checkout on the floor.
Do you program Siemens HMIs and WinCC?
Yes. Comfort Panels and WinCC inside TIA Portal. During a migration, older OP and TP panels and WinCC flexible projects move to Comfort Panels and WinCC in TIA Portal. Field note: WinCC Unified vs Comfort for a new line. Moving to Ignition instead? See Ignition programming.
