6.2.2 External communications link: Ethernet
To load the configuration from an external computer (PG/PC) into the SINUMERIK 840Di sl
PLC via an Ethernet connection, the following conditions must be met on the PG/PC:
● The computer can communicate via Ethernet or an Ethernet connection has been
established
● PG/PC interface is parameterized (see below)
● The PG/PC is connected to one of the Ethernet interfaces of the SINUMERIK 840Di sl
PCU (Ethernet 1: company network or Ethernet 2: Local network).
PG/PC interface
The PG/PC interface parameters can be checked and set in the SIMATIC Manager via menu
item: Options Set PG/PC interface...:
Dialog: Set PG/PC interface
Tab: Access path
Interface parameterization used <Interface>
OK
NOTICE
Do not select ISO interfaces as Ethernet interfaces from the list of interfaces, e.g. "ISO Ind.
Ethernet - Realtek RTL8139...".
Instead, use the appropriate TCP/IP interfaces, e.g. "TCP/IP - Realtek RTL8139...".
6.2.3 Local communications link: SOFTMC
For loading the configuration from a SIMATIC STEP 7 installed locally on the SINUMERIK
840Di sl in the PLC, the communication link must be set on "SOFTMC".
PG/PC interface
The PG/PC interface parameters can be checked and set in the SIMATIC Manager via menu
item: Options Set PG/PC interface...:
Dialog: Set PG/PC interface
Tab: Access path
Interface parameterization used SOFTMC
OK
