The highly anticipated SIMATIC S7-1200 G2 signifies a major step change when it comes to simpler automation applications. Expect an automation system that minimises complexity which is also optimised for cost efficiency.
Coordinated machine safety and motion control in one single PLC means that you can reduce system complexity, which is all supported by one common engineering platform (TIA Portal).
Key highlights of the updated S7-1200 controller range includes:
Efficient Motion Control with integrated motion control technology objects
Enhanced performance and scalability with a smaller space-saving design
Redefined machine safety hardware concept with fail-safe signal boards
NFC functionality for wireless access to diagnostics, operational & device data.
Flexible Machine Safety
Achieve more flexibility with the updated machine safety hardware concept. Easy expansion of fail-safe I/Os according to the number of safety functions withup to two fail-safe signal boards, that attaches to the front of the cpu, or fail-safe signal modules with mixed I/Os.
Fail-safe engineering integrated in STEP 7 Basic (no seperate safety license necessary from V20 onwards).
Flexible machine safety implementation with multiple operating modes (e. g., Safely-Limited-Speed) to ensure maximum productivity.
Efficient Motion Control
The S7-1200 G2'S integrated motion control functionality allows you to satisfy simple single axis control, up to coordinated axis control, and easy kinematics. System configuration has also been simplified with integrated motion control technology objects.
PROFINET IRT for fast program execution at synchronised intervals
Supports the SIMATIC Ready-to-use motion control applications and comprehensive motion control trainings to help you get started.
Dive into data with NFC functionality
Since Near Field Communication (NFC) functionality is built into all SIMATIC S7-1200 G2 controllers, you can wirelessly access diagnostic data and previously configured process data for quick and efficient machine service as well as heightened machine data transparency.
Gather Information without having to power the device.
Web API as an interface for reading and writing certain CPU data (based on configuration).
Setting IP-addresses and other network settings without programming device during commissioning.
NFC functionality eliminates the need for direct access with additional programming device to the PLC
More power in a smaller package
Despite its smaller space-saving design which has a reduced DIN rail footprint of ~ 25%, the S7-1200 G2 comes with enhanced processing power, dedicated communication performance, and a significant memory boost. Additionally, all CPU models now come with dual ethernet ports.
Supports the connection of up to 31 PROFINET devices and synchronised program execution with PROFINET IRT.
Removable high density terminal blocks with push-in wiring for ease of use.

Optimised Machine Safety Hardware Concept
Improved F-IO Portfolio with F-SBs and mixed I/O modules.
1oo1 (One out of One): 1oo1 as simple redundancy, a single input connected to a fail-safe digital input.
1oo2 (One out of Two): Redundancy with cross-diagnosis: There are two independent sensors, each connected to an F-DI. Both sensors provide signals to the F-DI. The F-DI monitors the signals and makes decisions based on both inputs. This configuration is normally used in safety-critical applications.
Vs: Integrated Sensor supply, Allows you to detect short-circuit or overload scenarios, and react accordingly.
The SIMATIC Memory Card that the new S7-1200 G2 CPU's support boast increased lifespan 500,000 write accesses possible.
No special card reader is required (SD card with FAT 32 file system) and experience no data lost despite openness with CPU shutdown.
Project sent as an e-mail with transfer to memory card using standard PC.
Benefit from increased copy protection – Option of linking the programs to the memory card serial numbers.
