Please can anyone help solve this headache of a problem
I am still trying to go online with my S5 and PC.
I am connecting to the com 1 port (9 pin- male) of my PC, with a 9 -25 female-female through connector. This is then connected to a siemens convertor pc/232 6es5-734-1bd20 (25 male - to CPU connector.
In s5 I have just selected the com 1 port and tried to change from offline to online which results in an error message saying PLC TIMEOUT,
or ascii ? port not ready. Is this a software setup error or hardware, I have also tried selecting com ports 1-4 but with no luck
Any ideas would be welcome!!
thanks!
