SIMATIC S7-1200: Open connectivity protocol & S7 series 1200

Hi
I was wondering, if there is some kind of OPC functionality in the S7-1200.
OPC UA has just come out as specification, S7-1200 has ProfiNet by design, so it looks like we should be expecting something soon.
Anyone has any info on the matter? Or should I make a post in the
wish list thread
?

OPC UA Support in S7-1200

Yes, the S7-1200 does support OPC UA, but it wasn't initially available at launch. Support was added with firmware version V4.0 and higher.

You can find detailed information, including configuration guides and FAQs, on the Siemens Support website:

You do not need to post a wish list item. The functionality is already implemented. Ensure your S7-1200 firmware is updated to V4.0 or later to access it.
