Dear Good community, I posted a thread before regarding an "old" S5 system that I am working on https://support.industry.siemens.com/tf/ww/en/thread/posts/191481 and now I am returning for further consulting The System configuration is CP: IM308B (6ES5 308-3UB11) with EPROM (6ES5-375-1LA21) From what I understand the EPROM contains the configuration of the network ( 1 ET and 3 OP25), but for some reason it seems "empty".The reason I say that is because the "IF" led ON and "ST" led BLINK. I couldn't find a manual for IM308B, but when looking at IM308C manual I found that it means the EPROM doesn't contain program or is defected. This is manual for IM308C P.(116) https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/en/view/1142470 My question is: 1. Can I reconfigure the network - if I have the necessary data of course of comm. devices- using COMET200 ? 2. If not, what program is used to configure the network? 3. Can I download the "new" configuration to the IM308B directly or I need the EPROM ? 3.i. Do I need an external PROMMER to download the configuration to EPROM? 3.ii. Can I download the configuration using the S5 SW and COMET200 to the IM308B ? I hope my questions are clear. Thank you in advance. |

Hallo E.Ridy first things first, attached is the ET200U-IM308B manual. As for your questions: 1. Can I reconfigure the network - if I have the necessary data of course of comm. devices- using COMET200 ? YES 2. If not, what program is used to configure the network? N/A (see answer to 1 above) 3. Can I download the "new" configuration to the IM308B directly or I need the EPROM ? You need to burn the EPROM (and erase it with a UV lamp if it is not empty) 3.i. Do I need an external PROMMER to download the configuration to EPROM? External PROMMER may work (never tried it with COMET200), otherwise use a Siemens PG with inbuilt EPROM burner 3.ii. Can I download the configuration using the S5 SW and COMET200 to the IM308B ? No, see answer to 3.i. above AttachmentET200U-IM 308B manual.pdf (314 Downloads) |

Correct, the IM308B will NOT be able to store the configuration without the EPROM |
