Hi everyone, finally I succeded to communicate Citect 2016 with S7 1516 PLC, part number 6ES7 516-3AN01-0AB0 (firmware versión 2.1), but I am having a WARNING message . It says that I am running a restricted versión of the S7TCP driver due to it not being a final Release or it requires a license . I installed the latest S7TCP Release S7TCP (v 1.10.00.000) and still having the warning message. Do I have to buy a specific license for this driver or it is something with the firmware versión of the CPU?
 
Is the S7TCP driver expensive?
I need to use it to add an S7-1200 plc to an existing Citect 7.10 system.
Wondering if I could use Modbus instead as I only need around 50 tags
 
thanks sigmadelta
I received a budget price from the local Citect dealer of around $1000 AUD.

I spent half a day to get the Modbus working in the S7, and learnt a bit more about programming it along the way, so I'm happy to go this way.
