In our machine, the Siemens S7-400 CPU, OP 37 and field ET 200 modules are connected with Profibus cable. I want to connect my laptop to Profibus port in order to get the PLC ladder programs via Step 7 software.

Thanks.

Hi,

Use the MPI/Profibus programming adpator, this is available in USB and RS232 (if you can still get the RS232 version).

If you want to use a USB port then you need this device from Siemens:

6ES79720CB200XA0 - SIMATIC S7, PC ADAPTER USB F. CONNECTION OF S7-200/300/400 C7, WITH USB-CABLE (5M) CAN BE USED UNDER WIN 2000/XP

There is a MPI port on the CPU that you can communicate with CPU and uploading the ladder software to PC.

BR,
Vahid
