Safety instructions 2

2.1 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 constitute one element of such a concept.

Customers are responsible for preventing unauthorized access to their plants, systems,

machines and networks. Such systems, machines and components should only be connected

to an enterprise network or the internet if and to the extent such a connection is necessary

and only when appropriate security measures (e.g. firewalls and/or network segmentation)

are in place.

For additional information on industrial security measures that may be implemented, please

visit (https://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity).

Siemens' products and solutions undergo continuous development to make them more

secure. Siemens strongly recommends that product updates are applied as soon as they are

available and that the latest product versions are used. Use of product versions that are no

longer supported, and failure to apply the latest updates may increase customers' exposure to

cyber threats.

To stay informed about product updates, subscribe to the Siemens Industrial Security RSS

Feed visit (https://www.siemens.com/cert).

PROFINET system redundancy R1

As of FW version V3.0, the S7-1500H redundant

system supports PROFINET system redundancy

R1:

• ET 200SP IM 155-6 PN R1

(6ES7155-6AU00-0HM0)

• ET 200SP HA IM 155-6 PN HA

(6DL1155-6AU00-0PM0)

• ET 200iSP IM 152-1 PN

(6ES7152-1BA00-0AB0)

R1 devices are equipped with two interface mod

ules compared to S2 devices. If one interface

module fails, the R1 device can still be reached

by the H-CPUs via the second interface module.

Thus, R1 devices have a higher availability than

S2 devices.

New configuration variants for S7-1500H As of FW version V3.0, the S7-1500H redundant

system supports additional configuration vari

ants:

• Configuration of PROFINET rings with R1

devices

• Configuration of a line topology with S2

devices, switched S1 devices

• Configuration of a line topology with R1

devices

• Configuration of a combined topology with

R1 devices, S2 devices

• Configuration without additional devices

This allows you to connect the S7-1500H

redundant system to almost any network topo

logy and solve complex automation tasks.
