KD... Posts: 27 Rating: (2)	Hi, Ihave beenusing Step7 5.4 andS7PLCSIM5.3 SP1. Recently I bought S7-PLCSIM 5.4 and installed it. After installation what I found that, the optionof Ethernet (TCPIP)drivers from PGPC interface isnot available. I tried to addthem pressing the "Select" button on the Interface window; they are not available in there as well. Please suggest, 1. How to retrieve the PG/PC interface in the normal state? 2. Should I tryre-installing the PG/PC interface? In that case where can I find them? (I have Installable CD of Step-7, PLCSIM5.3, PLCSIM5.4, ProTool andWinCC Flexible) Thanks in Advance, KD...

I upgraded to 5.4 sp5 and not only is my menu selection for the PC/PG Interface Settings unavailable, it appears that the software for this feature was completely uninstalled. I can't find a way to install it on its own, and I've reinstalled S7 so many times my head hurts. I don't have a license for SimaticNET 2008. I assume the ability to modify your interface setting comes with the S7 package...so why will it not install? Hope someone can help! BR

I suggest uninstallation of the network adapters from Windows device manager. Then restart the PC. The adapters will be recognized from windows itself - you just need to set the interface seetings new. Then the TCP/IP options should be back. If not, do it again and remove all registry folders containing "TCPIP" or "ISO" from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Siemens\SINEC\LogDevices before restarting PC. Oh, better do a backup of those keys before. ;)
	Have Fun! TomDeWou
