The following software applications and tools are needed :

We will cover this practice in this tutorial. One of the challenges of using these methods is establishing communications between various devices in the system which requires knowledge of IP address settings. Siemens HMI panel - When the preferred IP settings are different from the default Siemens HMI and PLC IP addresses it is necessary to change the IP settings of both PLC and HMI either from TIA Portal or from the HMI panel.USB - When it comes to downloading programs to HMI panels, a generic USB can be used.So, this is an effective and popular alternative. Siemens Memory Cards - Memory cards from Siemens come in different sizes and can be expensive, but not as much as buying a TIA Portal license.TIA Portal - This software application is used to create HMI and PLC programs, configure devices with IP addresses and download the programs to devices.This tutorial covers various methods to download HMI/PLC programs and the tools needed, including : If you don’t have access to TIA Portal, it is practical to use SD cards/USB devices to download programs to the PLC and HMI. TIA Portal requires a license that most program developers/OEMs have but can be cost-prohibitive for many users. Siemens HMI and PLC programs can be developed in a single software application: TIA Portal.
