Driver to communicate with the PLC via the S7TCP protocol.

Configuring the object

Configure the driver

The parameters Device ID, Rack, and Slot are the three parts of the so called TSAP (Transport Service Access Point), assigned to the driver, assuming the role of client.

In most cases the default values can be left unchanged.

When the Ethernet Wizard of the program STEP 7-MicroWIN 32 is used to configure a server connection for a SIMATIC S7-200 PLC, the parameters of the supervisor driver must match the TSAP of the remote client. For example, if the TSAP of the remote client is 10.00, the following values must be set for the driver parameters:

Local Device Id = 16 (= 10 Hex.)
Local rack = 0
Local slot = 0
