Hi All, There is a 4P3040.00-K44 panel in our machine. The panel communicates with the ABB PLC and other equipment used in the machine via RS485 (7IF361.70-1). Unfortunately, although the panel seems to be fully functional, the Profibus communication does not work. We tried it with the 4P3040.00-K2…

As you know the connection parameters its rather simple and you use the same parameters within Automation Studio If you are able to connect with PVI transfer tool to the PP41 then AS2.7 will be able as well. It is irrelevant which AS2.x version you use I am sorry but I do not have any AS2.x versi…

Hello, I try to answer your questions: AS2.5 is obsolete since approx. 20 years and even if we send it to you it is no longer possible to licence this version I doubt that there is a problem with the communicaiton parameters. If this machine was running why should parameters suddenly no longer wo…

Dear Oliver, First of all, thank you for your answer. It seems that since the project was created with AS2.5, it is not possible to access this panel without the correct version, is that true? If so, how long can this version be used without licensing? The IF card works. We know this because …

Dear Oliver, I really appreciate your help. I downloaded AS2.7 but I couldn’t connect to the panel. I didn’t try hard because I thought I couldn’t connect because I was using a different version, but apparently it is possible. Can you please tell me how I can connect to the panel that is working …

For going online to a PP41 you need a serial interface on your PC (USB adapters might or might not work sadly) and you also need to know the proper online settings of your PP41. There is a nice thread how to go online on a so called “SG3” target: Determine serial online connection parameters (SG3 …

As I mentioned before, I can connect to the panel with PLITransfer. In other words, the communication parameters are clear. However, I could not find how to connect with AS2.7. Since I do not have the project files that work on the panel, can you tell me if this is possible? If possible, how can I d…
