01 Introduction
The Practical Series Automation Library (PAL) is a library of software modules and templates that have been developed for the Siemens Simatic S7-1500 range of controllers (and to a lesser extent the S7-1200 range).
The latest version of the PAL software library is available to download here (as a TIA Portal archive):
