Device Configuration IF1063

Hello,

I am trying to configure a communication by Profibus between S7-300 as Master and IF1063 as slave.
In the documentation “MAX20IF1063-1-ENG” the configuration of the IF1063 is made by device manager. In my Project in automation studio V4.12 when i add the IF1063 module “Device manager” is not available.

Am I missing an installation ?

Hello and welcome !

The X20IF1063 is not the same as an X20IF1063-1

You mention the manual of the -1 which is a totally different hardware than the IF1063
If you really have a IF1063 (without the -1) then you need the “AsL2DP” library to exchange data

Please also note that the correct GSD file must be imported in the master (same here… the -1 will not work if you have a non -1 hardware)

Hope that helps !
