Hi Guys I have a couple of issues with a simatic panel
The first issue is that I cant connect to it. I have bought a new panel it is a simatic TP 177B 6" color PN/DP
I thought it would be a simple thing to download a program to it.
I dont have a SD card for it.
The only things I have is a Siemens PG, the MPI PC adapter and an ethernet cable.
I have read that I cannot use the MPI pc adapter which leaves me with the ethernet cable.
How do I set up the connection?
One other thing. When I connect the ethernet cable to an ordinary computer I see the lights come on in both ports. But if I do the same on the pg and the panel nothing happens. If connect the pg and the pc I get the lights why is this?
Hope you can help
