dafos Posts: 4 Rating: (0)	Dear friends I have Protool V6 SP3 and I want to make project to run on the PC which will communicate with two S7200 plcs through Ethernet. The one PLC is an S7200 CPU 222 with a CP243-1 and the other PLC is a CPU224XP with a CP243-1 IT. Is there a limitation on the amount of connections that I can have because when I try to insert the second CPU in the controllers menu I receive the message "There is no free driver to use a plc". If I wanted to communicate with more than one CPUs through PPI would I have the same problem? Thank you in advance for the help my friends!

Afterwards delete the S7-300 controller. Perhaps it will work Best regards, Wizard
