I have an S7-300 and an HMI. The HMI is the only device that talks over Profinet through the CP343-1 module. It's run fine for a couple of years and then earlier this week the CP343 had a red fault light. We replaced with a new CP343 and loaded the configuration but the HMI would not talk.
Now here's the weird part. When I go online with the PLC using my A2 adapter, the HMI starts working over the Profinet. As soon as I go offline, the communication stops. Siemens support was as lost as I am.
Any ideas?
