Overview
SIMATIC Version Trail is a software option for engineering which,
together with the SIMATIC Logon central user administration,
can assign a version history to libraries, projects and multi-
projects. It can be used within SIMATIC PCS 7 or also in the con-
text of Totally Integrated Automation with SIMATIC.
■
Function
When archiving, SIMATIC Version Trail in association with
SIMATIC Logon creates a version history with the following infor-
mation:
• Version
• Version name
• Date and time
• User
• Comment
This version history can be displayed and printed. Individual ver-
• Version
• Version name
• Date and time
• User
• Comment
This version history can be displayed and printed. Individual ver-
sion releases can be dearchived from the version history and
used further. SIMATIC Logon organizes the access protection.
The SIMATIC Version Trail is a SIMATIC product which was de-
veloped for the SIMATIC PCS 7 process control system but
which can also be used together with other SIMATIC products in
the context of Totally Integrated Automation (TIA). In the case of
products which can be used in both the SIMATIC PCS 7 and TIA
environments, the ordering data and type of delivery may differ
depending on the application. To provide a better overview and
to avoid faulty ordering, the selection and ordering data of such
products are therefore listed separately depending on the target
application.
