Siemens S7 to Red Lion touchscreen

[Robert_M]

Hello all,
I am currently working on a project using a Siemens S7-224 and a Red Lion G306MS00. I have the touchscreen setup for PPI communications, but I don't seem to be able to establish communications between them. I went to the Red Lion website and downloaded the pinout for the comm cable, but I suspect that is the problem. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Please and Thank you.
Robert

Double check your cable pinout

I have seen the 2xx series ports smoke and blow up if connected wrongly

If your cable is 100% correct then post you G3 file and S7 file as it could be a setting in there

Thank you for the reply. The link is the same link I followed to create the cable. At the end of the day, I cannot connect to the S7 with the factory PPI cable, so I have to assume I have killed it . I will speak with Siemens today and order a new PLC.
