Requirements

Running

To running compiled version of the s7cli requires, obviously, presence of Siemens SIMATIC Step7 environment.

Similarly, options allowing to communicate with PLC (like downloading program or changing state of the CPU module) require (also - obviously) such equipment (S7-series CPU) and means to communicate with it from the workstation where the tool is executed (via, for instance, a computer network or a proper interface).

Building

Building the tool from sources requires:

• Microsoft Visual Studio (with options allowing to build C# / .NET applications).
• Siemens SIMATIC Step7
