[Michael Hunt]

Does your PLC have an ethernet port? What is the function of the PC on the network?

you need in some way to convert ethernet to serial profibus

If their is no ethernet port on the plc,
-you can add a CP343 module on the rack to connect to get ethernet connectivity
-You can use a PG card on your pc to get a profibus port like a panel pc
-You can use a gateway from any brand
