Establishing a connection to a SIMATIC® S5 PLC via SINEC L2/PROFIBUS using a modern PC
Becasue of IT security only PCs with current operating systems including latest OS and virus scanner updates are allowed to use in corporate networks. So the usagee of old PCs that allowed a programming via SINEC L2/PROFIBUS is no longer possible.
Within environment with old SIMATIC® S5 PLC often SINEC L2/PROFIBUS is used to communicate with the control level or scada via Ethernet.
Soft and Hardware requiremets:
- A PC with a usaul network card.
- Our IBHLink S7++.
- Windows XP, VISTA, 7 or 8 (32-Bit or 64-Bit).
First, an implementation of the SINEC L2/PROFIBUS network to modern twisted pair cabling with standard RJ45 connectors must be done. Therefore the Ethernet to PROFIBUS Gateway IBH Link S7++ is used.
Before plugging the IBH Link S7++ on PROFIBUS, the PROFIBUS parameters msut be set up. The needed parameters must be read out from the configuration of the used communication processor. Using a S5-95U with PROFIBUS the parameters can be found within the DB1, using a CP5431 the COM package COM5430 delivers the needed information.
The parameter can be setup using a standard browser. Likeewise Bus parameters can also be configured by the IBHNet configuration tool.

Zusätzlich muss der IBH Link S7++ bei Verwendung auf S5-Steuerungen extern mit 24V Betriebsspannung versorgt werden.
