MP377 has full range of communication interfaces. So you can always use a cross Ethernet patchcord to download each panel connecting to it directly.

In order to download to HMI devices over different networks (MPI, PROFIBUS, ETHERNET) from one place (for example your PC/PG in your office is on ETHERNET, HMI device is on MPI or DP) you must configure ROUTING in Siemens PLC.

That means, you must have all your hardware (PLC's, HMI devices) configured in hardware configuration and you must define PG/PC interface in your project and download everything (hardware configuration and NETPRO configuration) to the PLC.

If you have everything on only one network (PROFIBUS) than you don't need to do anything. You just connect your PC/PG to PROFIBUS port on the PLC and you download your project with WINCC Flexible or PROTOOL to the HMI panel with that PROFIBUS address.
