The Siemens Open Library was developed by DMC, Inc. over several years. Through a joint collaboration with Siemens Industry, DMC documented the library and released it as an Open Source Library open for anyone to use and distribute. The Library is Open Source and will allow for users to contribute content to help enhance the overall availability of functionality to the greater Siemens User Community.
This library is targeted at S7-1200 and S7-1500 applications using a Siemens Comfort Panel, WinCC Advanced RT, or WinCC Professional. Special changes have been made to accommodate S7-300 and S7-400 processors, however these processors are no longer being actively developed for (final version is 2.1). The version of Portal used for initial development was V13 SP1, and the current version release is for V14 SP1. However, the project is activity supported by both the community and DMC – updates will continue to be released on a regular basis.
