Hello,
I have never used such system and couldn't find the answer I was looking for in the siemens documentation.
I want to use this CP with a 314 CPU (with no dp ports, just a mpi) to allow it to use the profibus protocol.
I read in the documentation that to read inputs from slave and write outputs to slave I need to use standard siemens blocks.
But how does it work with OP stations? I will have two OP73 I want to plug in the profibus network (they aren't there for the moment, so I can't test it). I have integrated them into simatic manager (not as DP slave).
Will they be able to read the CPU 314 DB's and mementos or do I need to do something to communicate through the CP342-5?
