This is my first battle with an S7-200 PLC. I am unable to communicate with either of two S7-200 PLCs that are running equipment in the factory where I work. I found the previous engineer's copy of MicroWIN and the USB/PPI cable. I installed MicroWIN SP5(accepting lots of errors popping up along the way) from the installation media and then downloaded SP9 from Siemens and updated to SP9 since my laptop is Win7 SP1. SP9 setup forced me to uninstall the initial installation of When I open MicroWIN and go to PLC/Type and try to read the PLC type it says "Specified Access Point Not Found". I then ran the file that Lucifer posted here. That got me one step closer, now I am getting "Port could not be opened or is being used by another application". I am stuck here currently. In device manager the USB/PPI cable just shows up as a USB input device. Is this correct or should it show up as a serial port? The forums and the Youtube videos have conflicting information on this(Maybe there is more than one type of cable?). Cable: 6ES7 901-3DB30-0XA0 PLCs: CPU224XP |
