Hello Marc; The following link will show a pdf from Honeywell showing configuration options for the ML200 PLC. They show Profibus interfaces available for these PLCs. ML200 Installation and Commissioning Guide - Honeywell I would go for a Profibus-DP master communictaion processor, theyare easy to setup in the WinCC Tag Management editor, as part of the S7 Protocol Suite, Profibus channel. The WinCC station would require a Profibus-DP interface card (CP 5612 A", for example) and would be setup as a Master (Class 2). Configuration for the exchanges will be done in WinCC; the only thing required of the PLC Profibus master is a valid Profibus address. Tag addresses would have to be of Profibus (Siemens) standard of couse. Since I do not know the ins and outs of the ML200 PLC Profibus interface I suggest you look at the following document to familiarize yourself with it: Profibus-DP Pnet I/F Module 2MLL-PMEA - Honeywell Hope this helps, Daniel Chartier |
