Hello, everybody !

Win10 Pro ver.1909 build 18363.592, WinCC 7.4 SP1, SIMATIC NET PC Software v.13.0+SP2 and CP5613A2 communication processor (PROFIBUS) are installed on the PC.

When the CP5613A2 was inserted into a PC for the first time, I could view its properties and could diagnose via “Set PG/PC Interface”.

After CP5613A2 had been configured as "PC Station" for tag exchange between WinCC and PLC "Simatic S7-300" (incl. CPU 313C-2 DP), it was no longer possible to make those actions.

Now after clicking "Properties" in "Set PG/PC Interface" window there is a window with the text:

The properties of this CP cannot be selected here. You have two possibilities to change the properties of the CP.

1) Change the configuration with SIMATIC STEP7 or SIMATIC NCM and transfer it to this PC-Station.

2) Select “CP mode” “PG-mode” with the help of the program “Configuration Console”. Then the properties can be configured here.

The proposed variants can’t replace the possibilities of "Set PG/PC Interface" completely.

How to reset this configuration from CP5613A2 completely now so that it gets its initial status.

Hello Alex3110

I think it has something to do with PG Mode and Configured Mode. Check this manual for useful information:
