Online functions are available for S7 for Windows® and Siemens SIMATIC® Manager. If the programming system is installed on the same computer as S7-SoftPLC, the data exchange can be done over the internal PC memory. The necessary drivers are installed with S7-SoftPLC. Alternatively the data exchange can be done over a serial port. Therefore the programming unit can be connected via a zero modem cable. A PC adaptor with 38,4 kBaud on the programming unit has to be selected here. Furthermore online functions over TCP/IP Ethernet are provided via the IBHNet driver. The IBHNet driver can be freely downloaded from the IBHsoftec homepage. Via Siemens ISO-On-TCP (RFC1006) protocol online functions are also possible. Therefore the [[../Configuration/User_interface/cpx43.htm|Ethernet CP-343/443]] has to be integrated in the configuration.

If a [[../Configuration/User_interface/CIF.htm|Hilscher CIF30/50/60]] PROFIBUS® card is used, S7-SoftPLC can be programmed over the connected PROFIBUS®. Operator panels can also be connected, if the card driver is configured correctly.
