Hi, zzh
Please use the module IM308 in S5 system with which you can established a connection by profibus communication to S7 system.

in Chinese Simplified wrote:你可以使用S5加IM308和S7的PROFIBUS模块建立连接, 需要COMPROFIBUS进行组态。自己参考一下S5通讯的资料。不难。

Hello ZZH_GKONG

If you have a CP 535/143/1430 on the S5 side and CP 443-1 on S7 side, Ethernet connectivity can be established very easily.

Profibus connectivity can be used in case IM308-C/ CP5431 is available on the S5 side. On the S7 side you will need a DP master available.

A serial link is also possible with S5 over CP525 on S5 side and Cp 340/341 on S7 side.

Please select based on the hardware available.

Cheers!
