Safety instructions 2
2.1 Security information
Siemens provides products and solutions with industrial security functions that support the
secure operation of plants, systems, machines and networks.
In order to protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber threats, it is
necessary to implement – and continuously maintain – a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial
security concept. Siemens’ products and solutions constitute one element of such a concept.
Customers are responsible for preventing unauthorized access to their plants, systems,
machines and networks. Such systems, machines and components should only be connected
to an enterprise network or the internet if and to the extent such a connection is necessary
and only when appropriate security measures (e.g. firewalls and/or network segmentation)
are in place.
For additional information on industrial security measures that may be implemented, please
visit (https://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity).
Siemens' products and solutions undergo continuous development to make them more
secure. Siemens strongly recommends that product updates are applied as soon as they are
available and that the latest product versions are used. Use of product versions that are no
longer supported, and failure to apply the latest updates may increase customers' exposure to
cyber threats.
To stay informed about product updates, subscribe to the Siemens Industrial Security RSS
Feed visit (https://www.siemens.com/cert).

3.1 New functions
This section contains an overview of the most important new firmware functions of the CPU
compared with the predecessor version CPU (V2.9).

PROFINET system redundancy R1
As of FW version V3.0, the S7-1500H redund
ant system supports PROFINET system redund
ancy R1:
• ET 200SP IM 155-6 PN R1
(6ES7155-6AU00-0HM0)
• ET 200SP HA IM 155-6 PN HA
(6DL1155-6AU00-0PM0)
• ET 200iSP IM 152-1 PN
(6ES7152-1BA00-0AB0)
R1 devices are equipped with two interface
modules compared to S2 devices. If one inter
face module fails, the R1 device can still be
reached by the H-CPUs via the second inter
face module. Thus, R1 devices have a higher
availability than S2 devices.

New configuration variants for S7-1500H As of FW version V3.0, the S7-1500H redund
ant system supports additional configuration
variants:
• Configuration of PROFINET rings with R1
devices
• Configuration of a line topology with S2
devices, switched S1 devices
• Configuration of a line topology with R1
devices
• Configuration of a combined topology with
R1 devices, S2 devices
• Configuration without additional devices
This allows you to connect the S7-1500H
redundant system to almost any network
topology and solve complex automation tasks.
