cemara · Post by **cemara** » Sat Dec 06, 2008 7:21 am

Dear all,

i just bought a second hand cp5511, but i don't have the sofware cd.
i use the CP to communicate with S7 plc with no problem.
I have simatic S7 manager V5.4 and simatic net 2006 installed on my laptop.
My problem is when i need to connect my CP with IM308C (S5 PLC) with comprofi bus, it says that station cannot be reach.
i test my card from setting pg/pc, it was OK (see 2.jpg). but if i connect to im308c and test it from setting pg/pc nothing happen although i have waited for half an hour.

My question is:
1. do i need a software driver for cp5511? if yes could someone share it?
2. please help.

thank you in advance

You need the software COM Profibus V5.x.
