:::hint{type="info"}
**Note**: You should always start with the Siemens S7 driver in lieu of the model-specific drivers, such as S7-300 or S7-400. The Siemens S7 driver is faster and supports more data types.
:::

Refer to the following table of compatible DeviceHub drivers for your PLC series.

Important: [Siemens S7-400 (Gen1)](docId\:lOeAXxeLeFPJGCBoJfI6O) is no longer available as of Belden Horizon Data Operations version 3.7.0. We recommend using [Siemens S7](docId:8mkRxiiYBKiDlBgSUORkK) or [Siemens S7-Advanced (Gen1)](docId\:fOMaHfRcpOJNnLZyTLvJ9)
