Security information Siemens provides products and solutions with industrial security functions that support the secure operation of plants, systems, machines and networks. In order to protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber threats, it is necessary to implement and continuously maintain a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial security concept. Siemens products and solutions only form one element of such a concept. Customer is responsible to prevent unauthorized access to its plants, systems, machines and networks. Systems, machines and components should only be connected to the enterprise network or the internet if and to the extent necessary and with appropriate security measures (e.g. use of firewalls and network segmentation) in place. Additionally, Siemens guidance on appropriate security measures should be taken into account. For more information about industrial security, please visit Siemens products and solutions undergo continuous development to make them more secure. Siemens strongly recommends to apply product updates as soon as available and to always use the latest product versions. Use of product versions that are no longer supported, and failure to apply latest updates may increase customer s exposure to cyber threats.

4 1 Introduction 1 Introduction 1.1 EPLAN Electric P8 Engineering EPLAN Electric P8 is an ECAD program used for the configuration, documentation and management of electrotechnical automation projects in industrial surroundings. It offers the possibility to create circuit diagrams (electrical, topological), models and cabinet configurations. EPLAN Electric P8 works with a database that manages all your articles and macros for the processing. Macros of automation manufacturers can be imported into the database (Microsoft SQL Server or Microsoft Access). Figure 1-1: EPLAN Electric P8 2.7 Downloading Siemens CAx data In EPLAN, all CAD models of Siemens automatisation components can be imported. Note CAx Download Manager Siemens Image Database Entry ID: , V1.0, 11/2017 4

5 1 Introduction Exporting EPLAN Electric P8 projects as AutomationML file By configuring the stations, the network and the topology, you have already created a detailed device setup of your plant. EPLAN Electric P8 offers the possibility to export configurations as Automation Markup Language files. AutomationML is a neutral, XML-based file format for storing and exchanging engineering data. These AML files contain the following information: Hardware configuration Logical / topological network configuration PLC tags of inputs and outputs The AML file exported by EPLAN Electric P8 can be used for TIA Portal. Importing PLAN Electric P8 projects as AML file into TIA Portal To commission automation devices, you need to configure and program them in TIA Portal. For this, you need to repeat the configurations that you already have performed in EPLAN Electric P8. With the release of TIA Portal V14 SP1, it is possible to import the AML files created by EPLAN Electric P8 into TIA Portal projects. Thus, it is no longer necessary to perform the hardware configuration twice in both programs. This replacement allows data consistency throughout the entire engineering process.

EPLAN Electric P8 can export AML files in the correct format for TIA Portal. 2. TIA Portal up to V14 SP1 or higher can import AML files. Requirement: TIA Portal Openness as of V14 SP1 The import function in TIA Portal is performed by TIA Openness. TIA Portal Openness is a free part of every TIA Portal product (e.g. STEP 7). The installation needs to be done separately. Advantages By importing the articles from the EPLAN project into the TIA Portal project, you gain the following advantages: Time saving (no double engineering) Avoiding errors Consistency Entry ID: , V1.0, 11/2017 6

7 1 Introduction Structure of AML file (exported from EPLAN Electric P8) The structure of each AML file is standardized. Therefore, the structure is always the same. However, AML files can differ in content. It is a readable, XML-based file and can be opened with a text editor (e.g. XML notepad or AutomationML Editor).
