Hi, some assistance would be greatly appreciated with the S7-300 disconnection problem I am experiencing. The disconnection occurs randomly between the Gateway Server (Server 2003) and PLC. Then automatically reconnect after 30 seconds. This PLC is used to control a High speed sorter. There is a profibus connection to the PLC which receives Bar-coded information from a Datalogic Scanner. The PLC passes this information onto the server to enable correct sortation. The PLC is connected via Ethernet to the Gateway via a simple 8 port switch. During this disconnection we are still able to ping the PLC via the gateway and still receive alive message confirmation.
