View source for IBHLink S7++:S7-300/S7-400 Elipse SCADA

It is possible to realize a connection from a PC with '''Elipse SCADA''' to a S7-300/400 station over ethernet using an [http://www.ibhsoftec.com/IBH-Link-S7-PP-Eng IBHLink S7++] or [http://www.ibhsoftec.com/IBH-Link-S7-PP-HS-Eng IBHLink S7++ HS] as gateway.

==Example==
In the following example a configuration with '''Elipse SCADA''' is shown.
The HMI station is connected to the IBHLink S7++ via an Ethernet connection. The IBHLink S7++ itself is connected to a S7-300/S7-400 station by MPI or PROFIBUS. Bus parameters were configured by the IBHNet configuration tool.

The following addresses were chosen in the example:

IP addresses:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Station !! Address
|-
| HMI station || 192.168.10.122
|-
| IBHLink S7++ || 192.168.10.125
|}

MPI addresses:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Station !! Address
|-
| IBHLink S7++ || 17
|-
| S7-300/S7-400 station || 2
|}

Configuration:

The ethernet communication driver for S7-300/400 named '''MProt.dll''' must be selected witin the Application Organizer:

Within the MProt settings the MPI/DP address of the PLC has to be entered as <Default slave address>

Enter the IP Address of the IBH LinkS7 ++ and choose port 102:<br />

Now the '''N''' an '''P''' Parameters must be set. The description you'll find within the helpfile '''<mprot_us.chm>'''<br />
In the sample DB1.DB0 is chosen:<br />
