Engineering Upgrade Package V7.1 to V8.1
SIMATIC PCS 7 engineering systems with Engineering Software V7.1 can be upgraded in two steps, initially to V8.0 and then to V8.1. Depending on the starting point, one of the two following versions of the SIMATIC PCS 7 Engineering Upgrade Package can be used:
- SIMATIC PCS 7 Engineering Upgrade Package AS/OS, unlimited POs
(without OS Runtime license for productive operation), for classic engineering station without limitation of engineering. - SIMATIC PCS 7 Engineering Upgrade Package AS/OS, 250 to 2 000 POs
(with OS Runtime license for productive operation), for combined engineering/operator station in small applications
Any existing OS Runtime license is converted to a cumulative "Count Relevant License" during the upgrade from V7.1 to V8.0. The number of OS Runtime POs is retained.
The licenses included in the Engineering Upgrade Package V7.1 to V8.1 apply to the following software products of SIMATIC PCS 7 Version 7.1:
- PCS 7 Engineering AS, OS, AS/OS (250 POs to 2 000 POs) or
PCS 7 Engineering AS, OS, AS/OS (unlimited POs), each including redundancy - PCS 7 Import-Export Assistant
- SIMATIC Version Trail
- PCS 7 SFC Visualization
- PCS 7 BCE

SIMATIC Version Cross Manager Upgrade
The SIMATIC Version Cross Manager remains available in the version 7.1, and can be used in both SIMATIC PCS 7 V7.1 and in SIMATIC PCS 7 V8.0 and V8.1. Since upgrading is not essential, it is not included in the SIMATIC PCS 7 Engineering Upgrade Packages AS/OS V7.1/V8.0 to V8.1.
Advanced Engineering System Upgrade
The SIMATIC PCS 7 Advanced Engineering System Upgrade is offered as a separate product in addition to the SIMATIC PCS 7 Engineering Upgrade Package.
Since the SIMATIC PCS 7 Advanced Engineering System V8.0 (incl. SP1) can be used both in SIMATIC PCS 7 V8.0 and SIMATIC PCS 7 V8.1, only an upgrade from V7.1 to V8.0 (incl. SP1) is available.
