Hello everyone! I have a question regarding fault tolerant redundant system of S7-417-5 H with REDCONNECT. My system will have two bundles S7-415-H with CP443-1 and two PCs with CP1623 and REDCONNECT each. I found the documentation in attachment about connecting these type of system, but it is out of date (year 2001). Is there any new appropriate documentation? if not, I have some questions regarding manual I attached: 1. In the part of adding PC station to Step 7 Project (section 3.2 Configuring PC station), step 3 says that I need to add an User application named Application, but in latest Step7 V5.7 I have 5 options. How to know which should I use? 2. I don't want to incorporate whole WinCC application into Step7 project, but I see I need to use .xdb file. I don't understand this manual's part about Set PG/PC interface and .xdb file (section 3.4), what I should do in Step7 and WinCC projects with that file if my PLC and SCADA software are separated in Step7 V5.7 and WinCC Explorer V7.5 SP2? In WinCC Explorer I created a Named Connection but I don't have option to choose .xdb file, what to do?
