Hello, I have almost identical problem, only that my rack PC is Windows XP for PCS7 v6.1 SP4 Single Station. So I'm preparing a replacement PC for the existing one, with its own CP (thought similar to the existing one, CP1613 A2). So I finished installing PCS7 and Cemat first (also exactly similar to the existing one) before I was able to install the CP1613 A2. After I install card and boot, there's a Windows Driver Installer, I installed the driver by window's recommendation and WITHOUT the CP1613 A2 included CD (since PCS7 already include Simatic Net), and it installed fine, the CP is now recognized by PC and is in device manager under "Simatic Net". The problem is when I open Simatic Net Console, there's red crosses sign and is indicating CP deactivated, and there's a yellow exclamation sign on PC/PG interface for CP1613. I noticed that the CP blinks now with long interval compared to very short interval before I installed driver. Now I tried to install the driver from CD, what I did is uninstall driver from Windows Device Manager, reboot, then then follow the Window's automatic driver install again upon boot up, but this time with the CD inserted, and it installed fine again. But it seem got worse, now CP1613 appears under "network adapter" together with the normal LAN cards instead of under "Simatic Net", and it doesn't show anymore on Simatic Net Console. So have I done something wrong in the installation procedure? Does the CP supposed to be "activated" on Simatic Net Console after installing the driver? How could I activate the CP? Thanks a lot for any help! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
