Hello everyone,

I'm working with 1)TIA Portal, 2)SINAMICS Startdrive and 3)STEP 7 Professional ALL V14 SP1 Update 7, plus Simotion SCOUT TIA 5.1.0.1.

I'm trying to connect on-line with Simotion Simulator, but Scout always said "device not reachable, verify online access on TIA...".

The simulator CPU IP address is 196.254.11.22 (on x127 port). I checked the IP address on SIMOSIM net adapter, and I found it's 196.254.255.241 when is selected "obtain ip address automatically" (FIG.01).

I tried to manually change IP address on SIMOSIM adapter to 196.254.11.230 and subnet mask to make the same, but the result is two IP address on TCP/IPv4 at the same time, and Scout can't connect yet (FIG.02).

I tried also to change SIMOSIM IP address from TIA, but I can't because the "modify settings" button is not enable.

If someone helps me to find the way to go on line with SIMOSIM, I would really appreciate.

Sorry for my bad English.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Christoph,

thanks for the reply.

Ping is working (address 196.254.11.22).

If I search for access node in TIA, I can find SIMOSIM adapter, and I can connect to it.

I attach a screenshot of the connection in TIA to SIMOSIM.

Thank you.

I tried to go online, and I think I did it.

I was a little confused because I saw all connectione red/green, and in the "destination system output" appears red messages that said "impossible to connct to SINAMICS_Integrated....".

What I'm finally trying to do, is to see the electronic cam "CAM_Pistoni_gradi" as showned in the attached screenshot, and I can see it only if I run the program, because it's calculated in the "FC_Phasing".

But I just tried to compile and load the software, and Scout goes to error saying that "..the device must be not connected online in TIA portal". (If I try to connect Scout without the online connection in TIA, Scout can't connect).

Sorry, maybe it's silly, but it's the first time I try to work with the simulator.

Thanx

Hi Huggy,

I don't know, but the entire project is made with the sw configuration that I described in the first post, and it's work fine.

What I saw is that for TIA v15 there's Scout 5.2.1

Thank you

Solved, thank you very much Christoph and Huggy.

I went online with TIA, then I went online with Scout, finally I went offline with TIA.

Tried to upload sw to simulator and I finally did it.

Thank you again.

Regards

M
