For using ibaPDA-Interface-S7-Xplorer with a Soft-PLC SIMATIC WinAC RTX, the following items have to be observed:
-
Operating ibaPDA and WinAC RTX on the same computer is generally permitted.
-
Not permitted is using iba interface boards (e.g. ibaFOB or ibaCom-L2B) on a WinLC RTX system. Here, high loads of the PCI bus from both sides might lead to instabilities.
-
When using the module S7-Xplorer with the connection mode TCP/IP, always enter the value 0 in the Rack and Slot field in the I/O Manager.
-
When using the module S7-Xplorer with the connection mode PC/CP, the MPI or PROFIBUS address in the Address field, always enter the value 0 in the Rack and Slot field in the I/O Manager.
