Method of connecting Siemens touch screen DP to S7 300 PLC
Operation content: Establish communication between the touch screen and PLC to enable the touch screen to read and write PLC data
Communication method: Touch screen communicates with PLC through DP
Download line: USB/PPI
Precautions for operation:
Firstly, in STEP 7, perform hardware configuration (without attaching the HMI as a slave to the PROFIBUS bus, as the HMI is a secondary master), set the DP address and baud rate
Then, set the connection parameters in the touch screen programming software (note that the connection parameters should be consistent with those in STEP 7)
Finally, transfer the touch screen program to the touch screen via a download cable
After successful transmission, it indicates that the program has been successfully downloaded to the touch screen
