Applicom 3.1 with Siemens EM277 Profibus DP (S7-200)

Thread Starter

I have an existing Wonderware System talking Suitelink to applicom card PCI1500PFB
My applicom software is version 3.1, Wonderware is Intouch 7.0.

Currently we have the system running and talking to Siemens PLC S7-300 using the S5 Messaging. Recently we added smaller PLC Siemens S7-200 with a profibus Adaper EM277 Profibus DP

Question 1. Has anybody any experience with Applicom card communication to the S7-200 via this EM277? I have gone through the Add Equipment, like GSD IMPORT "siem089d.gsd" etc
Is S7-200/EM277 support by Applicom? Applicom configuration allows S5 messaging and Profibus DP to exist on the same channel, Is this correct ?

Question 2. If Applicom does support this EM277 then... The S7-200 uses a VB memory block. How does the following Item Names map into this memory

BIx, BOx
OIx, OOx
WIx, WOx
Dx or DIx,DOx ..which is correct?
Fx or FIx,FOx..Which is correct

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks
