Hello fellows, I've been having connection problems on and off for weeks or maybe months. Every time it happened I resolved it by trying haphazardly trying various things till I got lucky.
System: Win7 Ultimate with SP1 PC: Lenovo laptop 580 with Athero Ethernet PCI controller. Software: Simatic TIA V11 with SP2 Update 5 Hardware : S7-1214C DC/DC/DC with Version 3.02 and another with version 30.1 The hardware is networked yet, I just connect whichever one I need and in this case I tried connecting each with no success. I'm looking to learn how to troubleshoot connection problems in the future not just to solve this one. Please see attached file. I should add that the link LED on the PLC is on and the Rx/Tx flashes intermittently along with the LED on the Ethernet port on the laptop. Thanks Kal

So after reading a bit more of the online help I was able to restart Simatic IEPG hep server and ran the diagnostic test again with good results. But I was not able to add the hardware to a project. I got a "Connect Error". Now this is the usual problem that I've been having on and off for a very long time. Attachmentconnectfailed.pdf (84 Downloads) |

Hello, do you have installed the HSP for TIA to support the S7-1200 V3 PLC? The HSP for V11 SP2 you can download here: https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/en/view/72341852 Regards |
