SINAUT MICRO: monitoring and controlling via GPRS
![](/addcontent/img/Catalogs/Siemens/G_IK10_XX_50160.jpg)
- Design of low-cost fault signaling and monitoring systems with SIMATIC S7-200 and WinCC flexible using GPRS system solution
- Low-cost GPRS volume tariffs allow permanent and wireless online linking of machines or plants to a control center
- Design of GPRS-based automation networks without special contracts with mobile radio providers over closed virtual private networks (VPN)
- Low operating costs due to selectable cyclic or event-based transmission
- Free selection of central control station location through use of Internet
- Protection against tapping and manipulation of transmitted data between S7-200 station and OPC server of the SINAUT MICRO SC by means of encryption and scrambling algorithms
- Fast detection of communication faults thanks to clear monitoring of all S7-200 station connections
- No complex radio network planning, therefore fast commissioning with low project costs
- Fast generation of applications through matched combination of automation components with the Micro Automation Set 21 (http://www.siemens.de/microset)

Configuration | Using integral configuration tool |
The SINAUT MICRO SC software package consisting of:
- Block library for the S7-200 CPU (CPU 224 or higher)
- OPC server software for the PC control center
- For data exchange with an OPC client, e.g. WinCC or WinCC Flexible
- Connection manager software for the PC control center
- for configuration of a secure GPRS connection with an MD720-3 modem
- for monitoring these connections and
- for data routing in the case of cross-communication between SIMATIC S7-200 and S7-200
For alerting the on-call service personnel, the add-on pack is recommended
- Alarm Control Center Micro Edition
Messages that are received by the OPC server of the SINAUT MICRO SC can then be forwarded to as many as four recipients (cellphones, fax machines or printers).
On the basis of the shift plan, the responsible person is informed directly at all times. If this person does not acknowledge promptly, the multi-stage escalation management insures that an alternative person is always contacted.
- Connection of up to 256 stations on one SINAUT MICRO SC OPC server;
by connecting several SINAUT MICRO SC256 OPC servers to one OPC client, more than 256 stations can be connected to one control center - Access to SIMATIC S7-200 variables over the OPC interface
- Wireless communication between S7-200 stations through the integral routing function
- WinCC and WinCC flexible can be used as clients
- Configuration of monitoring time and time synchronization of S7-200 stations
- Adjustable cyclic transmission of all variables; transmission of variables can be combined with cyclic monitoring of stations by the control center
- Event-based communication with the S7-200 stations
- Input screens for creation of S7-200 stations
- The PC on which the MICRO SC software is installed must be permanently accessible from the GPRS network. The PC must therefore be directly connected to the GPRS provider using a dedicated line, or permanently to the Internet, e.g. by means of DSL.
Security
- Password authentication for establishment of connection by an S7-200 station
- Secure data transfer between modem, Internet and SINAUT MICRO SC using encryption algorithms
Diagnostics
- Integrated diagnostic functions for:
- Tabular overall view of connection status of all stations
- Connection status as list
- Adjustable refresh response
- Manual scanning of connection status
- Integral diagnostics functions for monitoring of connections

Combination of SINAUT MICRO and SINAUT ST7
SINAUT MICRO and SINAUT ST7 use different protocols for data transmission. However, it is possible to combine a SINAUT MICRO system with a SINAUT ST7 system. This is carried out in the PC of the control center via the OPC server of the SINAUT MICRO SC.
