Hi, that is strange. It's difficult now. Siemens will not support an installation on a VM-Ware with Technical support so this would mean you should try to solve this on your own. I've had some issues with VM-Ware and scanning the netowrk as well most of the time they where solved by checking the VM-settings but sometimes I needed to reinstal lthe Step 7 software. What you could try to do is to install the v4.0 of the Primary Setup Tool. This is a freeware tool which does almost the same as what Step 7 does but is stand-alone .If you install this tool properly it should be able to find devices. If not there is something wrong with the installed protocols and you should try to install again. If the PST finds the devices but your Step 7 installation doesn't I would say there is something wrong with your settings in Step 7 or with installation. Then I would advice to install Step 7 again. Primary Setup Tool (PST) Version V3.2 and New Version V4.0 for Address Setting of SIMATIC NET Industrial Ethernet Products Available for Downloading |
