The 6ES7718-1CC00-0AD0 is a SIMATIC Field PG M6 Advanced — a ruggedised programming device for the TIA Portal engineering environment, not a PLC module. It ships with a 6-core i7-8850H (2.6 to 4.3 GHz, hyper-threading, 9 MB Smart Cache), 32 GB DDR4 (2x 16 GB SO-DIMM), and a 2 TB SATA SSD. The 15.6" display runs at 1920x1080 full HD. Wireless is WLAN 802.11ac plus Bluetooth V5.0; there's also a DVD +/-RW drive. Software load includes Windows 10 Enterprise (1803), STEP 7 Professional Combo V15.1, WinCC Advanced Combo V15.1, Safety Advanced Combo V15.1, and S7-PLCSIM Advanced V2.0 SP1, plus 2x Multiuser Engineering V15.1 licenses. This is the version without the S5 online interface, with a Europe power plug and QWERTZ/QWERTY keyboard.
Deployment context
This is a field programming device — it's what you carry to the cabinet or sit at a desk with to download code, commission drives, and troubleshoot HMI screens. It runs the full TIA Portal V15.1 stack, so it's suited for S7-1200/1500, S7-300/400, and WinCC Advanced projects. The 32 GB RAM and 6-core i7 handle large multi-user engineering sessions without swapping.
