The SIMATIC Route Control upgrade package comprises all 

components for upgrading the Route Control Engineering, Route 

Control Server and Route Control Client software from V6.0/V6.1 

to V7.0. Also involved are SIMATIC Logon, the BCE license 

PCS 7 BCE and SIMATIC NET S7-1613 for Industrial Ethernet.

If fault-tolerant automation systems are used together with 

SIMATIC Route Control, the RC single stations/RC servers re-

quire the S7-REDCONNECT communications software in addi-

tion to the CP 1613 (A2) communications processor for the bus 

communication. This is available as:
• S7-REDCONNECT
• S7-REDCONNECT Upgrade (additive to existing S7-1613 

communications software)

The SIMATIC NET S7-REDCONNECT V6.3 communications soft-

ware is used in OS single stations/OS servers with SIMATIC 

PCS 7 V6.x, on the other hand the SIMATIC NET 

S7-REDCONNECT V6.4 with SIMATIC PCS 7 V7.0. When up-

grading the OS single stations/OS servers to SIMATIC PCS 7 

V7.0, an upgrade of the S7-REDCONNECT communications 

software to V6.4 is therefore required.
