saving configuration micromaster 420

I have a Step 7 project with several micromaster 420 connected to plc by profibus, I can connect to plc by ethernet (CP343-1), is there any way to save the parameter of every micromaster only connecting to plc by ethernet? Or connecting to plc by profibus? 

I cannot connect directly to every micromaster because profibus connector has no possibilities to connect and I cannot disconnect it because the factory process would stop, so is there any way to save the parameters without having to disconnect profibus of micromasters?

Which software is necessary? I really need help. thank you very much

Hello,

with s7 v5.4 and STARTER (see here for download) you can connect with micromaster

 Hello Pablo,

 Perhaps a help I can give to you, the software is called Drive ES, but I had planned these Micromaster with this software, I do not know if a project did without this software you can see these Micromaster. You have designed this or any other person? 

Hello pablo,

you have to define in NetPro that you are connected with your PC to Ethernet. Insert PC station, insert Ethernet interface into it, connect it to the Ethernet network and activate connection. Link between PC station and Ethernet network should has yellow borders. And download changes to PLC. Than you will be able to connect also to drives on Profibus network from Starter, PLC can route connection from Ethernet to Profibus network. I'm sorry I don't know details, I work mainly with drives, not with PLCs. But there should be some description in manuals about routing between networks. But as it was mentioned before, you maybe need Drive ES software.

With regards

Martin

Hello,

Yes you need to have Drive ES software, also add the drives in netpro then can access the drives from ES.

Thanks,
