Where to Download the SIMATIC BATCH V9.0 Sample Project

For SIMATIC BATCH V9.0, the sample archive is SBGS_MP.zip, accompanied by sb_gs1_b.sbb; it is not named zEn33_01.zip in this edition. Siemens provides both files from the “About” area of the SIMATIC BATCH V9.0 Getting Started support page, Entry ID 109781909. Download them to the STEP 7 examples folder and retrieve the project in SIMATIC Manager. You do not need to search the PCS 7 installation DVDs for this archive.

Use the V9.0 Sample Project Name

For the SIMATIC BATCH V9.0 Getting Started guide, look for SBGS_MP.zip, not zEn33_01.zip. Siemens' V9.0 guide identifies SBGS_MP.zip as its archived training project and sb_gs1_b.sbb as the associated recipe database. It says both downloads are available from the “About” button on the Siemens Industry Online Support page for that Getting Started document, Entry ID 109781909.

Download and Retrieve the Project

Open the Siemens Support page for SIMATIC BATCH V9.0 Getting Started, Entry ID 109781909. Open the page's “About” area and download the sample archive SBGS_MP.zip and associated recipe database sb_gs1_b.sbb.
Copy both files to a local folder named ..\SIEMENS\STEP7\examples under the installed STEP 7 path, as specified in the V9.0 guide. Do not substitute the similarly named files from another SIMATIC BATCH edition.
Open SIMATIC Manager and retrieve the archived project. The V9.0 manual directs the user to retrieve it and save it to a local project location.
Confirm that the retrieved project appears in SIMATIC Manager as SBGS_MP and contains the Kitchen training project before following the guide's configuration steps.

Why the Filename Differs

The source question asks for zEn33_01.zip, but that filename belongs to older SIMATIC BATCH Getting Started editions. The V9.0 guide uses the multiproject name SBGS_MP.zip. Searching the local STEP 7 example folder or installation DVDs for the older filename can therefore miss the V9 training archive. The V9 guide's download instructions point to the document's online support page rather than requiring a PCS 7 installation to locate that sample archive.

Software Prerequisites

Downloading the archive and recipe database is separate from running the training project. The V9.0 guide lists PCS 7 V9.0 with PCS 7 Engineering, BATCH Single Station, OS Single Station, SIMATIC Logon V1.6 Update 1, and S7-PLCSIM V5.4 SP8 among its software prerequisites. Confirm the exact environment and applicable Readme before opening or executing the sample project.

Verification

Check that both files have downloaded: SBGS_MP.zip and sb_gs1_b.sbb. After retrieval, confirm that SIMATIC Manager shows the SBGS_MP project and its Kitchen hierarchy. If the download page does not show the “About” area or attachment controls, confirm that the opened support item is the V9.0 Getting Started guide, Entry ID 109781909.

Limitations and Operational Precautions

The source does not state the user's installed SIMATIC BATCH version, but its follow-up says the appendix for the V9.0 guide was found. The official V9.0 manual's indexed text identifies the archive and download location; its full PDF was too large for this research tool to open, so detailed page-level verification was limited. The sample is a training project: review its compatibility and configuration before using it in any engineering system, and do not download its configuration to plant hardware without the normal project review and authorization.

Engineer FAQ

What is the sample archive called in SIMATIC BATCH V9.0?

The V9.0 Getting Started guide names it SBGS_MP.zip; its associated recipe database is sb_gs1_b.sbb.

Where does Siemens provide the V9.0 sample files?

The manual says both are downloadable from the “About” button on the Siemens Support page for Getting Started, Entry ID 109781909.

Is `zEn33_01.zip` the correct V9.0 archive name?

No. That filename appears in older SIMATIC BATCH Getting Started material. The V9.0 guide uses SBGS_MP.zip.

Do I need to install PCS 7 just to download the archive?

The V9.0 guide places the files on its online support page. You need the listed PCS 7 and BATCH software to work through the training project, but not to locate the support page.

Which local folder does the V9.0 guide specify?

It specifies ..\SIEMENS\STEP7\examples beneath the STEP 7 installation path, then retrieving the archive in SIMATIC Manager to a project location.
