For the project engineering of connections, connected stations are
presumed. To link-up stations, point on the colored net mark of the
according CP with the mouse and drag it to the network you want to
assign. The connection is displayed graphically by a line.
For the project engineering of new connections click on the according CPU
and choose "Insert new connection” from the context menu.

Via the dialog window you may set the parameters for a connection. The
parameters ID and LADDR are required for the usage on the blocks
AG_SEND res. AG_RECV.
With deployment of Siemens S7 connections the parameter
ID is to be
passed to the respective FB/SFB VIPA handling blocks.
Always use the 2. CP from the route
Please take care to always choose the 2. CP from the route for
communication. As 1. CP you will always see the Ethernet PG/OP channel
that does not support configurable connections.
Save and compile your project and close NetPro.
To store the CP project engineering data in the system data, you have to
activate the option "Save configuration data on the CPU" (default setting)
under
object properties area Options in the hardware configuration of the
CP.
For the execution of connection commands at the PLC, your CPU requires
an user application. For this, exclusively the VIPA handling blocks are
used, which you may get from VIPA as a library.
More information about the deployment of the blocks may be found in the
manual "Operation list" of your CPU.
Depending upon the connection type there are function blocks for Siemens
S7 connections and Send/Receive connections.
There are 3 possibilities to transfer your project into the CPU:
• Transfer via MPI
• Transfer via MMC using a card reader
• Transfer via integrated Ethernet PG/OP channel
