Hi, I want to start experimenting with the TP 170A and S7 312. I have the PLC soft and hardware and PC cable and I got a TP170A to test with.

Now for my question, witch cable do I need to connect the PLC to the TP, where can I order it online and how much will it cost me?

You can connect your TP170A to the S7 312 via MPI, just set the dip switches for port IF1B to MPI/DP and away you go.
