Hello everybody,

I have a PLC (314C-2DP) and an EXOR HMI panel(ESMART10) , I need to create the communication between them. I have both, Step 7 V5.5 and Tia Portal (V13 SP1), and the editor of EXOR. The communication should be in PROFIBUS DP or in MPI, because the PLC has not the ethernet port. I was looking for some GSD or GSDML in order to add the "exor panel" as hardware in some Project (step 7 or Tia), but I was not able to find it.  Someone has something, or I'm making something wrong?

hi sbartoc,

Connecting a panel to a PROFIBUS/MPI network cannot be done via the STEP 7 hardware configuration as is the case with other bus users. To establish a HMI-connection you need to project the connection on the HMI. The HMI needs a driver for the S7-300.

With a GSD-file you can only connect the panel as PB-node to get inputs of some HW-buttons etc., but not a connection to the runtime of the HMI.

hope this helps,

regards,

Hello both,

I have checked with JmobileStudio and this Panel doesn't support the Profibus S7 protocol, as shown in the picture.

Thank you.

Hello dchartier,

The 314C-2DP has not ethernet interface on board, maybe I can try with an Adapter, but I don't know if it works.
