I recommend going the legal way and dont violate any laws. In a plant i would flash if possible and migrate everything to TIA 16 of possible easyer to handle and work with in my opinion.ĭisclaimer: Im not responsible for what anyone does with that informations i provide or the actions people take based on that information. I dont recommend that, i just stick with simatic manager and old step 7 if its not supported natively, as long as its for private use.

But there could be that you have to update/flash the firmware to use it in TIA Portal depending on the model. Take the parts number and search for it or when you already have TIA Portal you can check if its in there. If not you have to work in the 'old' Simatic Manager with Step 7 v5.7? I think is the most recent update. Its also possible to Uninstall everything and delet everything from Siemens in Appdata and Delete some Files in the registry, what i dont recommend at all since you can fuck up your system with that, when you don't know what you're doing.Ībout the software you need, you have to check if you can use TIA Portal, like Step 7 V13 and upwards.

Since the trial will run out after 21 days you either have to get a license or run the software in a Windows VM. Or go the not so legal way and get a tool that includes all Siemens Licenses. Well there are two options: Buy a license from a Dealer
