Communication with Siemens S7 to Linux

[ejheath]

I have a Siemens S7-300 PLC CPU314IFM. How do I connect it to a Linux PC? Add a module? Add a communication adapter? Please help. I have a bunch of these that I need to connect to an MES system.

I suppose there is no linux support for mpi/profibus but You can attach cp343-1 and go for libnodave or snap7 or moka7 over ethernet.

Thanks. It's a little pricey but I'll try it.
