SO, I wonder if there is (Siemens)list where you can seedevice and programming program needed, free download or order?. I just found Masterdrive Mc that DriveMonitor(free) is not enough, i´ll need to order Drive Es Basic. It takes too much time to find out from forum, this kind of information. So I hope, please! tell me where is information or list, to help find outif we need or not? What program? I think there is not...(www.google.com). Best regards -Heksu-

The most important thing is to know where to find all necessaries info, concerning some problem. Regards Siemens staff - unfortunately I don't know "a table" with all devices and corresponding software for programming. But using search field here you could find all necessaries info for everything. This include - manuals, FAQs, updates, member's information...Just put the MLFB number in search filed and that's it. And in almost all cases DriveMonitor is enough. Best regards, Hristo Mihalev

[schnippschnapp] new question is splitted to I need to upload Masterdrive parameters and see diagnostic and faults and alarms. Regards -Heksu-

What is Drive ES? - Drive ES Basic V5.4 SP5 If you have DriveMonitor (alone) and serial cable you could do everything with the drives. To buy this packge only to be possible to open the drives via Simatic Manager and there to update the project. To open to see faults and alarms history...leave it for the moment away.

Of course depends type of drives which are in current project. Just another points, because you agree with me. best regards, Hristo Mihalev
