Hi,
I do not have much experience with setting up Wi-fi networks so I am after a bit of advice.
I have a Siemens S7-1200 PLC which I want to connect to my network in the office. We already have a WLAN setup, so I guess I need a wireless access point and need to ask IT dept. to assign a fixed IP address which I can use?
What I want to do is...
Have the S7-1200 plugged into my wireless access point
Connect it to the network as a device with a fixed IP
Load up a web browser on any PC connected to the WLAN in the office
Type in the IP address of the PLC and access the web server
I don't need anything fancy for outdoor use etc, this is just to have a PLC sat on my desk.
thanks
