Hi dchartier Thanks for the reply. I'm trying to replace an existing 6av6 542 panel with the 6av6 642. We have approx. 80 of the 542 panels on site and they are now obselete. Siemens recommended the 642 as a replacement although it is smaller in size and is a touch screen (forgive my sarcasm The one that I am changing is on a dp master system. The problem is that when its plugged in, it is taking the dp network down and can not communicate. I took it that the hardware config doesn't recognise the panel and so, I need the gsd to replace the existing 542 gsd so that the config is happy. All comms parameters are correct and I had no problem in changing the device in WinCC. Also, I thought that if the device is in wincc,then the gsd for that device would be in the gsd folder, it isn't ! I have attached the hw_config. Address 10 i am trying to replace.

Yes, it should be there. (path:\Program Files\Siemens\SIMATIC WinCC flexible\WinCC flexible Support\PlcProg\GSD\Siem8107.gsd). Best regards, Hristo Mihalev Attachmentgd.zip (904 Downloads) |
