Dear all,

I'm using the TCON function to make a connection to a Sick Inspector PIM60.

I followed the manual thats avaiable on the Sick site.

The camera part is setup fine, but I can't get a connection through the TCON block.

I tried using a 3rd party software (Hercules utility) for mocking/testing the connection, but it gives the same result.

At first the status will always be 7000, but when I try to evaluate the status I get 80A3 (

Attempt being made to re-establish an existing connection). Even if I change the ip adres to something that doesnt exist, I get the same code.

The ip adres of the camera is 192.168.1.20 and of the plc is 192.168.1.30

I'm using tia portal 15.1 and a 1500 (6ES7 511-1AK02-0AB0)

Do you know what solutions I can try?

Kind regards,
