Hello sumair; First point, you are using a CPU 314-IFM, which is a ratherolder version of CPU, so you will have to check the compatibility of the followingsuggestions before you start purchasing (ask your Siemens rep. before he makes the order form...); second, I have no idea what you mean exactly by a cost-effective solution, or what your budget is. But wou will need some form of Ethernet processor for the CPU (Ethernet wireless is the best way to get a constant, fast and reliable wireless connection between the CPU and the WinCC PC). So: Siemens has a line of products for wireless connection, called Scalance W. In the following link you can locate much information on the various access points, wireless devices and links provided: https://www.automation.siemens.com/mcms/industrial-communication/en/industrial-wireless-communication/network_components/Pages/network-components-iwlan.aspx In the following pages you will be able to locate sample code and documentation for wireless communications from the PLC side, using a CP 343-1 for Industrial Ethernet connection; the PC side should really be no problem, as far as WinCC is concerned, this will simply be an Industrial Ethernet channel working transparently over wireless. http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/38015753 Hope this helps, Daniel Chartier |
