Hello,
I would like to know if it's possible to create my own windows application, that can communicates with a Siemens S7-200 or S7-300 PLC?
I know VC++, VC# and VB, so programming isn't a problem for me and I also know a little about the S7 PLCs.
What would I need to communicate with a PLC?
A CP 5613 - PCI Card from Siemens, to connect my PC to Profibus?
Where can I find the Communication protocol and if possible some tutorials/manuals?
Does Siemens have its own communication protocol or is there a standard profibus protocol?
Thanx in advance for any help!
