Am exploring the utilization of Microdrive with S7300F CPU (or T-F CPU maybe) in Step 7 v5.6 and have been able to add the Microdrive F-TM module (6BK1136-6AB00-0CU0) - to IMM155-6PN connected to the CPU. Would love to know more for options of programming and configuring the F-TM module and some application examples too (if feasible). Thank you. Regards. P.S.: Tried uploading the HW config file, but i guess the .cfg extension is not supported here.

However, the S7-1200, S7-1500 and ET 200SP CPUs are described in the Mocrodrive Equipment manual: https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/za/en/view/109809019 When Siemens specifically give you nformation on their prefered controllers (and excludes your system) generally means iyour S7-300 is not allowed to work with this Microdrive, in my experience. The easiest way for you to certify the possibility of controlling the Microdrive F-TM with a s7-300 (TF) CPU would be to contact a Siemens tech, through a Support Request, and ask the question to a technical expert directly. You will find the link at the top for support requests at the of this page. Hope this helps, Daniel Chartier Attachment Microdrive F-TM and recommended CPUs.jpg (458 Downloads)
