Dear masterzz, I don't know if your Multi Master PPI cable would work or not but according to this link, http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/14188898 You can connect up to 8 S7-200 to a PC but using MPI protocole. I think MPI means that you have to buy a CP (with Profibus cable and bus connector)or USB/MPIcable (PC adapter). Then you will just connect a Profibus cable between the 2 S7-200 with 2 bus connectors. |
