Hello kenan_kapidzic, there I found an example how an S7-400 CPU must be configured for the communication with another master. Connecting a S7-400 CPU to a external master as DP slave There you should find the information what have to be done on S7 side. The GSD file from the S7 CPI must be integrated to your system and then : GO! Good luck Sabine |

This link doesnt really help me because my master plc is a GE Fanuc. I already set up my slave as is indicated in the link, but im uncertain as to how the GE Fanuc should be set up. I have installed the s7 317 .gsd file in the GE software and it is set up in their hardware coniguration. I am unsure about the .gsd file because it is for an s7 317 v2.1 and im using a v2.6. I was told that this shouldnt cause any problems, but Im still unsure. If there is any one who knows how to do the GE side of the set up I would really like some help. I am attaching a zip file with some screen shots that are in word documents, one document has the Siemens set up and the other has the GE set up.
