Yes, you can use the MPI connection in WinCC to talk to the S7-200.

Dear Friend,

You cannot communicate from S7-200 to WinCC using MPI. This can only be done via OPC. This is a little tricky.

If you want to keep things simple go for WinCC Flexible. As S7-200 works on PPI interface instead of the MPI iterface and WinCC doesnot understand PPI. But WinCC Flexible does.

Regards,
Saad

its true you will not be able to use WinCC v 6.0 with S7-200 use WinCC flexible instead.
