Connection Siemens PLC S7 300 via CP1613 PCI card (via SImatic net software) with Lookout scada

Hi,
for automation one mill is used Siemens PLC S7 300, CPU 317-2DP. It communicate with PC station where will be installed Lookout scada, via Siemens ethernet card CP1613 A2. Also, on PC station is installed SImatic net software for making link between CP1613 and PLC via industrial ethernet connection. Also, Simatic net software can adjust as OPC server for PC clients. And my question is: how can I connect Lookout with SImatic net software? Is it possible? What is need to adjust or add in Lookout for exchange date between this points: Lookput and S7 300 PLC.
Thank you in advanced,
Ognjo

Use OPCClient object in Lookout. Set up the OPC Server, including the configuration of items, then the OPCClient is able to connect the OPC Server and read or write items. In this way, Lookout just talks to the OPC Server. The communication with the PLC is handled by the OPC Server.

  • Siemens PLC S7-300 data to LabVIEW RT via Profibus ?

    How can I acquire Siemens PLC S7-300 data to LabVIEW RT via Profibus ? (My RT is hooked up to SCXI chassis.) There is the PCI-1500 Profibus board - but I'd have to use it on another PC running regular LabVIEW, then get data somehow to the SCXI chassis... that's too complicated! Any ideas ? Thanks! benji.

    We are currently working on a driver for the Profibus cards and LabVIEW RT. I imagine that NI is too. Our intention is to help fill in the Industrial network gaps for LVRT. If you'd like, I'll send you an update in 2-4 weeks. Maybe you can help us beta test it.

  • Which desktop WiFi PCI Card will be able work with personal hotspot signal of iphone 4

    which desktop WiFi PCI Card will be able work with personal hotspot signal of iphone 4. I need my desktop to work on WiFi signal emanating from personal Hotspot of iPhone 4.

    I think you are running into the following issue.
    From: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2756
    Note: If you leave the Personal Hotspot screen or put iPhone to sleep, iPhone only broadcasts the Wi-Fi network for an additional 90 seconds. If no devices join the Wi-Fi network during that time, iPhone 4 stops broadcasting your Wi-Fi network. You can start broadcasting your Wi-Fi network again by tapping Settings > Personal Hotspot.
    So, if I understand correctly, if you you leave your iphone on the the Settings --> Personal Hotspot screen, than it shouldn't disconnect.

  • Creative WebCam Vista Plus on USB PCI Card (VIA VT 6212) on Windows ME - doesnt work !!

    PC turns off when the Vista Plus WebCam is connected to the USB port on my USB PCI Card
    I use a primitive Intel Celeron 300Mhz processor with 64MB RAM on an Intel 440BX-AT Chipset running on Window ME. I recently installed a USB PCI Card (based on the VIA VT 622 chipset) which is a 394/USB 2.0 Combo. The problem is my 'Creative WebCam Vista Plus' doesnt work with it.
    After I had installed the drivers on the 'Creative WebCam Vista Plus' CD - that is - without connecting the webcam to my USB PCI card the installation asks me to connect the webcam to the USB port and When I do that the PC just GOES OFF !
    It starts up only in SAFE MODE and each time I've got to restore my PC.
    How do I get the WebCam connected to my PC ?
    Thanks in advance

    9hours later and Ive given up. I cant get the Vista 64 Ultimate to work with the Audigy 2Nx usb sound card. Im very angry and very frustrated (not to mention very tired from the 2 late nights Ive spent trying to work it out). Im not a PC-noob, but am only 4days into my Vista ownership................... Im guessing now, after much research, that there will never be a driver that gets these units to work with Vista 64bit. thats pretty weak Creative. However, I dont want to use crappy onboard sound for my gaming.What is the suggestion?Should I be looking at returning this unit, and buying either the X-Fi Xtremegamer?Fatality Pro as?a highend device, or the X-Fi Xtremegamer for $00 less? Or should I be looking at another manufacturer. Would either of these x-fi gamers work with Vista 64bit Ultimate?suggestions please?

  • I have siemens plc s7-300 and labview how can i communiction between plc and s7-300

    Hi all good  morning
     iam new user for labview

    thanks
    best regards
    vijaynagar.

    Dear vijaynagar,
    it would be posible to communicate with our Comsoft PROFIBUS products like DF PROFI II, FNL or cRIO PB.
    Please have a look at:
     - DF PROFII:  PCI, PCIe, C-PCI or PC104+ card with LabVIEW drivers: Link
     - FNL: Ethernet/PROFIBUS Gateway: Link
     - cRIO PB, C-Series module for National Instruments FPGA chassis: Link
    The DF PROFI II can be bought directly from Comsoft, the cRIO PB can be bought from National Instruments.
    Regards,
    Sven

  • Which firewire/usb pci cards are VERIFIED to work with a G5 2.7 Ghz?

    I have a Powermac g5 2.7 Ghz, and need to add a firewire/usb combo card for the external peripherals I have.
    I have the NVIDIA GeForce 6800 Ultra DDL video card, which blocks one of the pci slots. I am aware I can get separate usb and firewire cards, but do not want to that. I would have to replace the NVIDIA GeForce 6800 Ultra DDL video card.
    I have seen various brands advertised, but sure which ones will ACTUALLY work.
    I am having trouble finding any information here about a firewire/usb combo card that has actually been verified to work.
    ANY reliable info would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Glen, the Combo FW/USB cards seem to have disappeared in the last year or two, my workaround would be a FW card & powered USB Hub..

  • A problem that how to communicate between PLC S7-300 and IA Server

    The PC running the OPC server is connected to PLC S7-300 via the RS232 serial port and the Siemens RS232-MPI adapter (product no. 6ES7972-0CA23-0XA0).
    But I encounter such problem when I create an object(S7_HMI)in IA Server:

    First of all, Thank You very much for Your answer.
    I'm using the TS Adapter that make the conversion from MPI to the serial bus.
    I have made yet control panels to supervisor systems with Omron PLCs and I correctly use the DataSocket with the DSC module: with Omron PLCs I've never had any problems of communications. The problems is now with Siemens. For the communication between control panel and PLC I have to use the internal modem of my computer and the OPC is S7_MPI of IA opc Server.I wondering if this OPC is ok for modem communications (inside there is a form to insert the phone number of the remote station) or if every kind of modem are compatible with S7-300 modem it has inside.I've noted that my computer modem don't do the phone number when i run the front panel!In running mode, if I take a look to the Block Diagram and I click the "Highlight Execution" button I don't see any animation on the code generated by the HMI Wizard to connect the only one tag to the DataSocket URL.
    Have You any other suggestions to solve the problem?

    Hi Previtali,
    To use the MPI gate you will need to have a Profibus card installed in your system to act as an interpreter. This card is available from National Instruments. For more information search Profibus from the Online Store at:

  • Adding USB 2.0 ports via PCI cards

    I was looking into picking up a used Quicksilver model but wanted to know about adding USB 2.0 ports via a PCI card. I read that it needs to be compatible with 33MHz bus and not a card that only runs 66MHz. Are most cards compatible that work in PC's with Quicksilver models?
    I found a local shop selling Bytecc cards for under $10. Which would be a nice easy upgrade for the power mac. Any advice much appreciated.

    Not all USB PCI cards willwork in a Mac. A USB 2.0 PCI card is what you need. Best bet is any card with a NEC PD720100 or PD720101 chipset (xlr8yourmac results recommend the same). Read this for more feedback: http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/firewire/fwusb_card_deepsleep.html
    Stick with the NEC chip, and try NOT to use drivers, Tiger doesn't need the drivers.

  • IPod touch will not work with USB 2.0 PCI Card?

    I have a dual processor PowerMac G4 that has USB 2.0 via a PCI card. When I plug in the iPod nothing at all happens. I haven't read anything about PCI cards not being compatible with the touch. Is anyone else having this problem?

    Just thought I'd add my 2 cents...I've got the same problem...I've had a Keyspan USB 2.0 5 port card in my Dual MDD G4 for years and it's worked fine. Well, until a few days ago when I tried updating some stuff on our iPods. It would initially start working then lose connection. Now nothing at all with 5 iPods. It won't even show up on the desktop under Disk Mode. I did the same and it works fine under the old stock USB 1.0 but slooooooowwww. Is this yet another problem with Leopard? I've searched the Keyspan site and they don't have any updated drivers. Guess I'll look for a Belkin as well...ugh!!! Leopard is horrible! First no printer drivers, then no iSub support, now this!

  • USB 2.0 on PCI card no longer supported?

    Curious as to whether anyone else has experienced the same problem I had trying to update via a USB 2.0 port on a PCI card. I just updated to 1.1.1 yesterday, and while connected to a USB 2.0 port on my PCI card (my old Mac never had built-in 2.0 ports), all **** broke loose after the download was complete and ready to be installed. I've never had problems syncing via the PCI card's USB 2.0 port up to now, but during the "preparing iPhone for . . ." process, my iPhone would not respond to the installer, resulting in an error message. After repeated attempts, I switched over to a built-in USB 1.1 port and then had to do a complete restore (which took several hours), but was successful. Oddly though, after the restore, if I try to use the USB 2.0 port on the PCI card again to sync, I get an error message saying that the contents of the iPhone cannot be read, and that I'll have to restore again (even though the phone is fully functional). If I switch back to the built-in USB 1.1 port, everything is fine and I'm not asked to restore the phone. Looks like I can no longer use my USB 2.0 ports (on the PCI card), which worked fine prior to 1.1.1. I know that my weeks/months are numbered with this older Mac (doesn't appear that Leopard will be supported on this Mac), but I just wasn't planning to purchase a new Mac just yet. Perhaps Apple is now checking for "built-in" USB 2.0 during these updates and not supporting USB 2.0 via a PCI card? Would sort of make sense, given the number of users who continue to have problems just trying to get iTunes to recognize their phone (i.e., eliminate the 3rd-party PCI cards). I doubt I'll attempt another update to my iPhone with this Mac. Let me know if you've had a similar experience using a PCI card rather than "built-in" USB ports. Thanks.

    Thanks everyone for the great info!
    I had an issue with my wife's Powermac G4 Sawtooth and went out and got a Belkin USB 2.0 PCI card to replace the less compatible usb 2.0 pci card. It looks a card with the NEC chipset definitely does the trick.
    Her iPhone now syncs pretty much perfectly on the Belkin card. Yaaay!
    Of course, it doesn't help that there is another syncing issue going on right now, which kind of threw me:

  • What is fastest possible wireless router and pci card for G4?

    There are many companies offering wireless transfer of data that exceeds the Airport Extreme card and Base Station. Are any pci cards other than AE compatible with a G4?

    Well if you connect via Ethernet (100Mbps) and use 3rd party wireless items similarly spec'd you will get a faster speed. However if your using the Airport card (iMac G4 800MHz can only take a Airport card (802.11b - 11Mbps)) then you will be forever limited to that speed. 
    Apple's Airport Extreme is limited to 802.11g - 54Mbps and is only for 1GHz+ iMac G4's. This is odd as Apple was such an early adoptor of WiFi (1999 on the iBook G3) that they haven't kept up in recent years - but 54Mbps is ample for all but the most demaning applications.
    You can't put a PCI card in an iMac G4 - where would it go?
    Your best bet is a 3rd party wireless bridge that connects via Ethernet and gives onwards access to WiFi networks.

  • 3rd party USB PCI card and Leopard

    I installed a USB 2.0 Compusa Card in my Dual 867 Mac several Years ago, to get USB 2.0 speeds when i got a new Ipod. When 10.4, most t=of the time, early versions not included, I was unable to put the card computer to sleep and then be able to revive it. Leopard fixed that problem, but now the card is losing ports. It is a four port card, and the currently the two inner most ports are not working. The two outer ports are still working. I have had since prior to installing 10.5 my Iphone, Dock, A USB external Drive, for time machine, A USB hub, and my Keyboard attached to the USB 2.0 card. Now the drive disappeared and I am unable to retrieve. Anyone else having this Problem, has anyone had this problem and resolved it. Any help would be appreciated. I am contemplating a New PCI USb 2.0 card, but Not sure if it is the card or Leopard, as i have not had a any problems until 10.5 and 10.5.1 installations.
    Thanks in advance

    Hello.
    I have a G4 Dual 1.42GHz (FW800) and an USB 2.0 PCI card (VIA chipset) and it also worked very fine under Tiger. Since this card is sold for the PC market it doesn't bring a driver for Mac OS X.
    I went to the VIA site (http://www.via.com.tw/), there I could found they have another site with drivers for almost any OS. This is the address: http://www.viaarena.com/default.aspx?PageID=2
    Click on the Mac OS choice in the list and then in USB to get the driver. The driver version is 1.60 and it supports G4 systems ONLY and OS versions: MAC OS X 10.2.x, MAC OS X 10.3.x, MAC OS X 10.4.x. Nothing is said about MAC OS 10.5.x.
    Unfortunately it doesn't work in my G4 with Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard). I also tried to use the USB 2.0 PCI card before installing the driver to see if Apple could have done a driver of its own, but it also didn't work.
    If your card has a VIA chipset I recommend you write an e-mail to VIA Technologies, Inc. and tell your problem and ask for the update. I did it too.
    I hope they can work it out soon.
