The PCS7 project where these drives were created was made on ES without Starter. But the devices that were added Hardware are suitable for working with Starter. Attachment GSD.jpg (951 Downloads)

I compared the old project created on ES without Starterwith my test project and found this difference. This is the old project created on ES without Starter Attachment Old_Project.jpg (902 Downloads)

I am using cp 1613, and in my SET PG/PC interface settingis CP1613.RFC1006.1. With these settings a can see the Hardware online, but cannot coonect tothe drives. Attachment CP1613.jpg (867 Downloads)

Your PC is connected via Ethernet to the CPU an from the CPU to the drives via Profibus. For this configuration you must assign a PG/PC in Netpro to the CPU which is connected to the PC.

Eric_Voronov Posts: 12 Rating: (0)	Hi Cristoph, I think it is a solution for me. Should I configure CP1613 in some special way by using Configuration console? My current configuration is so as you can see in attached file. Attachment CP1613.jpg (776 Downloads)
