What Is SIMATIC STEP 7 Basic V15 (6AV2101-0AA01-0AA5)?

SIMATIC STEP 7 Basic V15 (order number 6AV2101-0AA01-0AA5) is the Siemens TIA Portal software you use to program SIMATIC S7-1200 PLCs and Basic Panels. It comes as a floating license — the DVD with the software and the license key on a USB stick.

  • Floating license: install on as many PCs as you need; how many people use it at once depends on the licenses you hold.
  • Six languages: German, English, Italian, French, Spanish, Chinese.
  • Genuine Siemens software, sourced through Siemens-authorized distribution channels.

Compatibility and How to Order

One TIA Portal V15 project covers both sides of the machine — the S7-1200 program and the Basic Panel screens are engineered together in the same environment. S7-1500 CPUs, Comfort Panels and distributed I/O sit outside STEP 7 Basic and need STEP 7 Professional instead. V15 projects open in V15 and later releases; teams running mixed versions usually end up buying extra upgrade or combo licences.

  • Send the order number (6AV2101-0AA01-0AA5), the number of floating licences and the delivery country.
  • We confirm licence type, lead time and terms per order — software is quoted on request, with no fixed list price.
  • Need several versions or upgrades? List them in one request and we quote the whole set.
