Hi guys,
I had a S7-314 PLC laying around in the shop lately and I tried to connect to it via the MPI port using the CP5511 adapter but I did not had the right cable to connect from the PLC to the adapter so I tried just a rs232 cable that was laying around and well I could not connect to it at all. And later on I found out that the adapter was burnt. So I’m wondering if by using the wrong cable could I have burnt the adapter.
The pinout of the RS-232 cable is like this:
2----------3
3----------2
5----------5
Pin 7 & 8 are jumped on each side.
Thanks a lot for your help.
