Hi, No, i mena for example in RS232 with vb ,we could use MSCOMM to communicate with Com port, How do we communicate with S7-300 with USB-MPI adapter in c#? current adapter I have is 6ES7 972-0CB20-0XA0 I'm able to get data inside plc with RS232adapterwith my own program, but I could not find a way to connect with USB adapter. I tried to check many place, however I couldnot find any.
