TIA Porta V13 SP1 on WIN8.1 can`t find S7-1200

Post by phophollety »

Hello Friends

I'm struggling to make TIA V13 SP1 on Win 8.1 finds the S7-1200 CPU 1215C (6ES7-215-1HG40-0XB0) and the KTP900.

All equipment are brand new, connected the KTP900 to the X1P2 port on the S7 and the PLC X1P1 port to a small router.

The KTP900 could gets his IP through DHCP, and I could ping it, but I could not scan for the PLC on "Accessible Devices", and since was a new PLC had no IP assigned.

Tried all kinds of connections: Using the PC wired port and the WiFi through the router, fixed IP on ethernet straight to the PLC with a without the KTP900.

Disabled the Antivirus, opened ports 34962, 34963, 34964, 33024 for TCP and UDP and even shutt off the windows firewall.

Tried to use other tools suchs as S7-1200 Tool - 2.0.0.5, SIMATIC Automation Tool and Primary Setup Tool, nothing worked...

After a lot of research here, found the PRONETA Tool, was the only that did the trick to found the devices on network, I finally assigned the IP to the PLC, now I can ping both devices.

Unfortunately I still can't find anything in TIA V13 SP1, them I can't starting work!

Does anyone experienced this kind of error? I'm in contact with Siemens Local support (Brazil) but this will take some time and my project is already late.

Greetings from Brazil!
