How to Integrate S7 PLCs into a PCS 7 Architecture

Many modern engineering systems are comprised of control systems from various manufacturers, including legacy components and emerging technologies. For example, many OEM-manufactured skids today arrive with included Siemens’ Totally Integrated Automation (TIA) Portal Step 7 controllers, which end users want to integrate to their distributed control system (DCS). This integration can be a challenge, but by taking the proper steps, you can simplify the process and make the most of the robust features found in S7 PLCs and PCS 7.
