FB-LSNTP: error 8601

Hi HedeyL,

I am working with an S7-1500, model 1517F-3 PN/DP, along with several Unified Comfort panels (MTP700, MTP1200, MTP2200). I am using TIA Portal v19; the firmware of the panels is 19.0.2, and the PLC firmware is 3.1.

I am trying to connect each panel to the LSNTP server to synchronize them with the PLC. I have configured a single NTP server on the panels, using the PLC's IP address.

However, when I enable the FB-LSNTP block, I encounter error 8601, as shown in the picture below.

I am also having trouble finding information on where to locate the connID for the panels. Could you please help me with this?

Split from Set Comfort Panel date and time with a NTP Server.

Hello Diego_m92, 

As I am working on a similar project with multiple HMI Unified panels and one CPU, I would like to ask you if you created an SNTP Instance for each panel or you used one SNTP instance for all panels. I understand that each panel has its own connection ID and multiple SNTP instances seem logical, however I would be interested to know if you implemented one SNTP instance for all HMI panels. 

Thank you in advance for your feedback.

 Hi

I'm having trouble using this lsntp-fb. In the FB's documentation it is stated that there shall be an "Init" at startup, so I tried to do that at the "enable"-pin without success. I've also tried to set the enable to true, to clock it and so on.

What is the correct use of the enable-pin?

Also, the connection ID, should it be unique, or set to the relevant connection ID shown in the connections-list?

My FB is running, but I can not sync my time to it. I can see both "valid" and "busy" are always true, and there is no diagnostic message. The status seems to stop at 7002, and when a new true is set at the enable-pin it runs one cycle and stops at 7002 again.

What am I doing wrong?

 Hi jholos, 

 A few moments ago I managed to synchronize time between two CPUs, one acting as NTP server and the other as NTP client using the LSNTP FB, so maybe I can provide some assistance. I suppose you are trying to synchronize an HMI time with your CPU. Could you please share a screenshot from your block call, parameters etc.?
Also let us know about the hardware specifications of your project. 

Thank you in advance.
