Use a real PLC as master for test. Such communication can not simulated. |

Hi, the main thing you have to decide is which communication method you would like to use. Because even If you say you are using PROFIBUS (your CPU does not have an PB interface), there are still different options you could use. For example i-slave communication or even S7-Communication with PUT/GET. With PROFINET you can also use i-device/s7-communication/open user communication. But as you said, you have configured transfer areas, I assume you would like to use i-slave (PROFIBUS) or i-device (PROFINET). For I-Slave, use this FAQ: How to you connect the communication module CM 1542-5 or the communications processor CP 1542-5 as I slave in STEP 7 V5.x to an S7-300/S7-400 CPU?
The generals GSD files for PROFIBUS can be found here: PROFIBUS GSD files: SIMATICregards sancruz |
