After that further help can be provided. Regards, Marcjan

Helo, In this link, you will found the non-Siemens controllers that can work with Siemens Simatic Panels: https://eb.automation.siemens.com/goos/catalog/pages/productdata.aspx?language=en&nodeid=9100190&regionUrl=/WW#activetab=product& Please tell us in more details, do you use Foxboro I/Os with S7-300 controller? Could you send us a network sketch?

zapotek Posts: 23 Rating: (1)	hello; i looked for this configuration. I will order KTP1000 hmi panel, wincc basic V11 and ppi cable. this panel can use mobdus and profibus communication. dear Ayman; we connect foxboro dcs's profibus fbm modules and s7300s. we don't use dijital or analogIOs for communication. Alldata exchange is on th profibus line. best regards...
