hello everyone,

i need some help for step7, i want to do a hardware configuration.

i have a CPU 416-3FS07-0AB0 end i want to comunicate with an IM 151-3BA23-0AB0, 

i nominate the IM and when i whant to do search it doesn't see anything , see attachement.

have a nice day.

hi,

searchin for accessible Ethernet-nodes is a Mac-Address-Broadcast.

Some anti-virus-scan are blocking this. Try to deactivate your anti-virus-scan or deactivate the function of it, that blocks the broadcast. It is a kind of Network-protect-function.

hope this helps,

regards,

Hi,

is not working...i disabled the antivirus(Kaspersky), i desabled all the functions...

I manage to comunicate with the CPU through a CP 443-1GX30-0XE0, then i search the IM and nothing...

hi,

how are you connected to the CPU? over Switch or Router?

regards,

hi,

i found the right answer in a old post :

Hi Everybody,

Someone gave me his old labtop DELL Latitude D630. All software are running well. I just can't connect the PC to the CPU on ethernet...

- My PC has this adress: 192.168.0.199 mask 255.255.255.0
- CPU has this adress: 192.168.0.1. The two are the only nodes on the network.
- When i ping the CPU,its answer is ok,
- S7online is set to TCP/IP (with the labtop card REALTEK): When i ask for accessible nodes, Simatic manager doesn't find anything! (Neither with S7online set to TCP/IP (auto)).
- When i use "Edit ethernet nodess" and "browe ethernet nodes", no Mac adress is found.

SOLUTION:

normally DLC is installed automatically.

Have you already tried to find devices with PST tool?

If you install PST, DLC will be installed automatically.

Thanks all.
