  yes . It's work.  but I couldn't connect to PLC  from ET200M profibus.

 I want connect to PLC from ET200M profibus. because  I have many ET200M  far from CPU and near the machine.

Hi,

if PC Adapter ist installed without errors in Windows do the following Steps:

- Check V5.6 Version-Update to SP1 it´s not installed yet. (Deactivate Virus Scanner if acitve)

- If this does not help, check this FAQ:

How do you generally parameterize the PG/PC interface and how do you ensure that the device driver can be selected and is visible?

Regards,

  I have  Simatic manager V5.6.  I can connect with PLC.

Hello

if you plug in the PLC and do a Accessable Nodes, do you see any other Profibus nodes?

Hello,

is the ET200M in a Profibus network connected to PLC -> check the settings of the profibus connectors.

If only ET200M directls set the Option "is only master on the bus" in the Adapter settings.

 Yes ET200M is connected to PLC  and work correctly. PG socket on  ET200M is OK. I tested it.

I don't know . maybe my PC  adapter is not originally  from Siemens.

Because It has this order number    

    6GK    1571-0ABA00-0AA0

and originally  from Siemens has this order number    

  6GK1    571-0ABA00-0AA0

What is your opinion?
