Also on a side note, please ensure that you have Hotfix 2 for WinCC V6 SP3. This hotfix is mandatory. If you do not have hotfix 2 then you can download it from http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/21480479 Regards, Salma |

Hello star You must install the Simatic Net CD to enable ethernet comms to a PLC from WinCC. So ... I did some hunting on the support site. WinCC V6 SP3 hf2 needs Simatic Net 2005 hf1 to work on XP SP2. The following two faqs contain this information: · http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/21980615 · http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/21927774 Can you please download Simatic Net 2005 hotfix 1 from http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/12660737 This should hopefully get your communications working on your laptop. Can you please let us know how you get on. Regards, Salma |
