Hello, As far as I know, CPUs in range S7-300/400 can communicate with panels such as MP270 via MPI port that is the default facility on all S7-300/400 CPUs. For MODBUS over RS-485 , you have option of using CP341 that supports variety of protocols such as MODBUS RTU(Master/Slave) configuration.CP341 is a communication processor that can be installed on main rack in S7-300 or over Decentralized Peripherie Stations.
For CPUs with integral PTP connection (with limited supporting protocols) check S7-313C-2PTP or S7-314C-2PTP. I hope these comments help you, Hamid Hosseini |

Hello FranMar; The MP 277 is not designed to connect to a SCADA system to exchange data. It can easily connect to S7 PLCs through Profibus or Profinet; it can connect to other familes of PLC (see the following manual- Part 2) through special drivers in WinCC Flexible, or OPC: WinCC flexible 2008 Communication Part 1 - Siemens WinCC flexible 2008 Communication Part 2 - Siemens What SCADA application are you using in your project? It should have some communication channels integrated to exchange data with various PLCs, including OPC, which is the easy way to connect to protocols not internally supported by the SCADA software, Please give us more information on the system you are setting up, maybe someone here can give you hints from theiur experience. Hope this helps, Daniel Chartier |

Hello FranMar; There are 3 versions fof the CP 341, each with its specialized interface:
You will also need aLoadable driver for the CP 341 (Modbus RTUmaster or Modbus RTU slave):
The necessarymanuals are available in the links above. Here are links for Sample projects with a CP 341: Modbus Slave (CP341) Sample Program- Hope this helps, Daniel Chartier |
