Dear Koko Krunch, Let me structure the setup here: Communication: S7-1200(3rd party) to S7-416-2 (without redundant) Network: Combined network for AS and OS. OS Client can ping to PLC Network adapter: SERVER2 has 2 network adapter, 1 for AS and 1 for OS. Assumption : 1ES, 1SERVER2, 1 CP416-2 Questions 1. Why configure the S71200 or field device level devices in SERVER2 WinCC directly? I seldom configure S71200 via WinCC directly, so, I cannot give any comments for it. My normal practice is to configure S71200 via Profibus DP (Treat S71200 as a GSD device, cybersecurity practise - do not simply open the plant bus or terminal bus network for others as they can access to our network easily. Your S7 protocol is not a secure protocol.) 2. 2nd usual practise for S71200 is to configure an S7 connection, and use PUT/GET to access the data. From a cybersecurity point of view, this is not a good method, but this is the normal way that people use. S7-1200 - S7400 Communication with Setup Pictures. 3. (Not recommended) If you really want to configure it via WinCC, you should configure the S71200 connection in your ES project, access the SERVER2 WinCC via ES. But i wonder how do you configure it in the tag management. When you change the PG/PC interface from PG to PC mode, the S7 protocol suite system used "Named Connections" instead of "Industrial Ethernet connection". Then you have to check the Station Configuration, whether is it properly configured. a. Ensure the Station configuration are running healthy without any issue, with the "connection“ symbol. You may take a picture at your station configuration b. no error message. c. double click the IE/CP index and take a picture. d. try ping the s71200 from SERVER2. Attached the first method for your information. Hope these are helpful for you. |
