PRODAVE MPI/IE V6.0 provides functions which can be combined with a user
application. The tools are combined in the development environments of the C and
Basic programming languages.
During communication PRODAVE MPI/IE V6.0 accesses functions of the S7SDD
component. The parameters are assigned to the interfaces using the "Set PG/PC
interface" of the S7SDD.
The following major extensions to the functions have been incorporated in
PRODAVE MPI/IE V6.0:
? Support for standard Ethernet cards on the PC and all relevant Ethernet CPs of
the SIMATIC S7 (CPU 31xx PN, CP 31 x PN, CP 343 and CP 443 in all
variations, standard and advanced).
? Double word support for reading/writing data blocks via Industrial Ethernet (to
date only bit-, byte-, word- and block-by-block support).
? Support from "Advanced Costumers/Customers" with new function via
Industrial Ethernet. Module lists/header information read for the diagnosis
(FCs/FBs) and status displays (OBs/FCs/FBs/DBs), reading code modules for
the diagnosis and reading out the data of the diagnosis buffer as well as the
system status lists.

All SIMATIC automation systems are supported:
? S7 400
? S7 300
? S7 200

PRODAVE MPI/IE V6.0 only supports the following operating systems: Windows
2000, Windows XP Home, and Windows XP Professional. Also the respective up-
to-date service packs are also supported.
The services via industrial Ethernet receive clearance only for Windows 2000 and
