CIP Client – exchanging process data with third-party control systems

 Yes,

Nayef Yahya

Hi all,

I try to connect the S7-1517H CPU to an Allen-Bradley CompactLogix CPU using this application example from Siemens.

When I install all of the blocks and compile them, there are no errors, but when I test communication, the error code "8201" appears.
Does the S7-1517H CPU work with this protocall?
If this example contains any useful information?

 every time is recommended in case of some ERROR code status, read documentation of library and error codes description. What error code 8201 means? Error codes are prepared for better diagnostic of problems and for quick remedy.

Hi Nayef Yahya,

information from pdf "109782317_CIP_Client_DOC_V1.0.1_en.pdf (1,6 MB)" provided in the application example mentoined by you.

Status "16#8201" -> "Invalid Interface specified" -> "Review the Hardware Identifier specified at the Interface parameter. This should be a system managed constant pointing to an interface."

So the question is:

Which hw identifier is configured currently? You can also upload screenshots here for better understanding.
