- The latest Logo! 8 logic module series can be integrated in KNX installations
- The Logo! communication module CMK2000 connects Logo! 8 to KNX
- For automation solutions from lighting to access control
The Logo! communications module CMK2000 enables the latest Logo! 8 logic module series from Siemens to be integrated into the KNX building system bus. Logo! 8 is designed for smaller automation solutions. It can now be used in combination with the new communication module for building automation tasks, such as surveillance, access control, air-conditioning, lighting, shading and watering through to pump control. The Logo! KNX module CMK2000 communicates via Ethernet with Logo! 8. It transmits sensor data from KNX bus nodes to the logic module, where they are combined with logic functions. Logo! control commands are transmitted to KNX actuators via the communication module. 50 KNX communication objects can be configured, and linked in the Logo! program with counters, setpoints, and parameters to create automation solutions.
- The TÜV SÜD certificate based on IEC 62443
confirms Siemens security in the development process for automation products
- Siemens is the first company worldwide with a
TÜV SÜD-certified development process based on IEC 62443-4-1
- Secure development is an important component
in the "Defense in Depth" protection concept
As the first
company to receive TÜV SÜD certification based on IEC 62443-4-1 for the
interdisciplinary process of developing Siemens automation and drive products,
including industrial software, Siemens received the certification at seven
development sites in Germany. Among other things, these sites are developing
Simatic S7 industrial controllers, Simatic industrial PCs, Simatic HMI (Human
Machine Systems Interface) devices for operator control and monitoring, and
Sinamics drives as well as the TIA (Totally Integrated Automation) Portal
engineering software. The international series of standards IEC 62443 defines
the security measures for industrial automation systems, with Part 4-1 of the
standard describing the requirements of the manufacturer's development process.
- Siemens high power charging system charges current and future electric vehicles in less than ten minutes for a 100 kilometer range
- Simultaneous charging of up to three electric vehicles
- Support for main charging standards CCS, CHAdeMO and Type 2
With an output of 150 kilowatts, the new generation of the Siemens high power charging system is capable of charging current and future electric vehicles with voltages of up to 920 volts. This means that a charging time of just ten minutes will enable electric vehicles to travel distances of over 100 kilometers. Up to three electric vehicles in compliance with the main charging standards CCS, CHAdeMO and Type 2 can be charged in parallel.
- TÜV SÜD certifies that the Siemens Simatic PCS 7 process control system conforms with the security standards IEC 62443-4-1 and IEC 62443-3-3
- Simatic PCS 7 is the first product to be certified by TÜV SÜD according to IEC 62443
- Comprehensive security measures and functions to protect plant operation
Siemens is the first company to obtain security certification from TÜV SÜD (German inspection and certification organisation) for an automation system based on IEC 62443-4-1 and IEC 62443-3-3. In August 2016, Siemens had already become the first company to receive the TÜV SÜD security certification according to IEC 62443-4-1 for the general development process for automation and drive technology products, including industrial software, employed at seven German development locations. This has now been followed by the first product certification according to IEC 62443-4-1 and 62443-3-3.
