4.2.6 Step 6: Configuring NetPro
No connection is explicitly configured in NetPro for accessing intelligent field
devices connected through the PROFIBUS via the PDM. The CP 5611 of the PC
station only needs to be connected to the DP line of the CPU 416-2 PCI. A
connection between the WinCC application and the CPU 416-2 PCI is also
configured.
Note
For access to DP slaves via the PDM, the access point "S7ONLINE (STEP 7)"
must be set to the CP5611 interface (PROFIBUS).
Ref
er to the section "Checking if the PG/PC interface is set to PC internal" for more
information about configuring the PG/PC interface.
