Ok, I relate this to RSLinx in A-B world, but now what? I have this TIA Portal up, and I can see the two PLC's and the two HMI's. perhaps it can be reconfigured as a router with a firmware update or something. Yes, I had wondered if that port had been configured differently as it originally had some sort of Verizon wireless device connected there, but after looking at the QuickGuide for that MikroTik I got the feeling it was just a simple switch. It seems that I should just have to connect my laptop to the router, and from the TIA Portal under Online & Diagnostics, select "Accessible Devices", and after choosing PN/IE interface and pointing to my network card, I should just do "Start Search" and everything should show up on the list, but it doesn't.Īnyone have experience with this stuff that can shed a little light on this?
SIEMENS STEP 7 F NAME ADDRESS MISSING INSTALL
I see that the install has added some items to my network card configuration for Simatic Industrial Ethernet I have set my network card to a static IP in the same subnet as PLC's and router, I have installed the software on my laptop and let it make all the system changes that it wanted. My only goal at this point would be to upload the programs from the PLC's for my archives (as I typically do when we get something new), and of course learn a new technology. I little research told me I needed Simatic Step 7 as programming software, so I bought a single license copy of Ver15.1 The PLCs are Siemens S7-1200, which of course I have absolutely no experience with. There are two sections to the machine, each with its own PLC/HMI and connected to each other through a router.
We recently acquired a new used machine off the surplus market.
