The text below describes the connection of S5 for Windows® to a SIMATIC S5 using the IBHLink S5++ without the IBH Net driver.
S5/S7 for Windows® 7.4.5 for Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10, with Hardwareconfigurator (S7-300/400) The KIT-Version is for free and allows connections to the IBH S7-CX PLCs. Demo Version Full Version Update KIT-Version Archive; The S5/S7 for Windows. Simatic s5 software, free download. Development Tools downloads - S57W by IBHsoftec GmbH and many more programs are available for instant and free download. In order to program the Siemens PLC-control series S7-300 and S7-400 efficiently and comfortably, IBH softec provides the software S7 for Windows®. This software can be combined with S5 for Windows® or runs stand alone. With S7 for Windows® the entire Simatic S7-300 and S7-400 PLC-control series can be programmed. The complete S7 instruction.
Ibh Softec S5-s7 For Windows
- With the IBH OPC Server a visualization application can be linked with a SIMATIC PLC S5, S7-1200, S7-200, S7-300 and S7-400 or an IBHsoftec SoftPLC. S5 for Windows® Programming for SIMATIC® S5 PLC In order to program the Siemens PLC-control series S5 efficiently and comfortably, IBHsoftec provides the software.
- S5 for Windows® is designed for programming the Siemens PLC family SIMATIC. ATTENTION: Please leave two valid serial numbers (S5W-xxxxxx-xxxx. Was the S5-patch for the module and PLCVCom installed? Now the virtual COM-port is set and activated, so you can go with your Step5-software via COM1.
The PC is connected to the IBHLink S5++ via an Ethernet connection. The IBHLink S5++ itself is connected to a SIMATIC S5 station on the AS511 port. Communication parameters were configured uisng the web interface or by the IBHNet configuration tool.

In our sample the IP address of the IBH Link S5++ is set to 192.168.0.156.
Software requirements
Ibh Softec Gmbh S5 S7 For Windows
- S5 for Windows® > V6.x
- IBH link S5++ with firmware V1.48
Within the Onlinetree seclet <Network> and choose <New S5-TCP/IP Station.> using the right mosue button:
Within the field <IP-Address> Can you feel my heart drum tab. enter the IP-Address of the IBH Link S5++.
As protocol <RFC1006> is choosen.
Now the onnline connection can be established:
The IBH link S5++ is a cost-efficient alternative solution for conventional PLC-PC-connections via Ethernet. If a PLC has to be connected via Ethernet with a PC, usually a CP communication processor needs to be applied to the PLCs rack. Due to the increasing integration in automation technology, more than ever a connection from a PLC to a PC is required. In general, the communication processors (e.g. CPs from Siemens, or Ethernet components from other manufacturers) are used for the connection to the PLC.
As an alternative solution, IBHsoftec has recently introduced the IBHLink S5++ for connecting a PLC with a PC. The IBHLink S5++ is a compact and robust Ethernet-converter within a 15-pin Sub-D-housing for a connection via a switch, a hub or even directly to a PC with a common network adaptor.
The used protocol is the standard TCP/IP protocol. In this way, the user can benefit from all the advantages of Ethernet like remote maintenance via a standard router or VPN-connections (Virtual Private Network). Likewise, a direct connection to the Internet is possible.
All required drivers for the STEP5 V7.16 or higher and for S5 for Windows® are included . Of course you can also use it with the IBH OPC Server.
S7-HMI devices can read and write variables from the S5 PLC using the RFC1006 protocol. Also the FETCH/WRITE protoccol is supported.
Besides the programming capabilities also an application programming interface for HMI applications is included. For Windows operating systems there are samples in the languages Visual Basic, Visual C, Visual C++, VB.net, Visual C#, Delphi, Java, Excel included.
