In one of our machines we have Siemens PLC S7-300 and lots of ProfibusDP devises and 29 ASI slaves( sensors and Solenoid valves) supplied by our german machine supplier.
We have a ASI to Profibus DP gateway from IFM electronics order no.AC1005 (. Yesterday night our gateway failed , we cycled power and it was working. Again today morning when we swithced on the machine we face the same problem but after many power cycle our IFM gateway did not work.
It has green power led lit, red alarm config led lit(which means actual configuratin not same as preset configuratoin) and orange run led.
I then downloaded demoversion of IFM software "ecolog-e" from their website.
fabricated a rs232 cable with pin 2-3 , 3-2 and 5-5, 1-7,8 , 4-6.
i donot know how to upload the configuration from the controller.
All that i could find in thier software is login , logout and download.
I tried login but it was asking me for PLC program file(*.PRO).
Later i chosed a example file named Alarm and i tried to go online with that file. but now i got a error message"communication error-logout"
I have set the baud rate at 19,200 (PC and controller) and connected the serial cable to my COM1 serial port.
Can anyone helpme on this.
I searched all their website for a manual on the software but no luck. i got a manual for the controller but that doesnot help.
many thanks
