Hello dpk;
Study the following FAQ;

What are the options for connecting a PC station to Industrial Ethernet or PROFIBUS via the SIMATIC NET OPC server?
Siemens proposes the following solutions based on Simatic Net, for an OPC connection over Profibus from a PC:
S7 communication (Profibus)
S7 communication can only be used for data exchange with S7 stations. You need one of the following SIMATIC NET PC software packages if you want to use S7 communication including SIMATIC NET OPC server for data exchange:

SOFTNET S7 PB - for communication via CP5611 (A2), CP5621 or CP551x.
S7-5613 - for communication via CP5613/14 (A2).
