Hi,

I need a solution for integrating 20 numbers of Siemens S7300 with one MPI port each to communicate with Wonderware Intouch SCADA. I have planned to place a ethernet card for individual PLC. What might be the configuration change that I have to do in Software Simatic Manager before downloading

 

Hi,

I assume that you already have the mpi network up and running and want to change it to ethernet. If this is the case the PLC hardware will require updating to include the ethernet card, the intouch project will require some changes in the tag database to suit the ethernet driver. I tend to use kepware so the change from mpi to ethernet would be quite simple, at worst you would have to change the tag database only and not the graphics or scripts.
