[?] Recognition of shared addresses PLC-HMI

Post by Nioton2000 » Tue Jun 22, 2010 5:41 am

hi
i'm working a project that has a touch panel and a PLC.
configuration files of touch panel isn't available and i have just backup file of touch panel.
how to recognize shared addresses between PLC (S7-300) and HMI (TP270)?
best regard. (tyou)

You can connect both (PLC and HMI) on MPI/DP network and then with PG/PC you will see, what addresses are on the network.
You know the address of PLC, so the other is HMI.

the step7 project is very complicated and finding of addresses is very difficult.

Now I'm lost... :?

What do you mean by 'shared address'? I though that you mean MPI/DP address of HMI.
If you mean address of the tags(MW, DBW,...), that are shown on the HMI, then without good symbolic/comments in STEP7 program it'll be very difficult. :(
