In that case yes, this is possible. In Siemens' world, this is called "routing". The following FAQ will give you details on the configurations required: How do you use WinCC flexible to configure communication between an operator panel and an S7 station via S7 routing? Note that there are certain conditions requiredfor routing to work: - all the elements participating in the routing must be part of the same Step7project. - all links must be configured in Netpro. -at least one of elements (CPU, CP, IM...)must support routing functions. More details are available in the FAQ. Hope this helps, Daniel Chartier

Perhaps this link might help: Which PROFINET services are supported by SIMATIC panels. If you want to program a CPU through the Simatic Panel, I think it is not possible. Best regards, Wizard
