I have a PC console which runs our hoist application using Think N Do Studio 7.X. The console is protable and plugs into many locations, so we use Ethernet. Our variable speed drives are manufactured by SEW Eurodrive and are Profibus DP compatible.
I need an Profibus DP master which can act as a gateway between the drives and communicate via Ethernet to the PC.
Suggested hardware so far is a Siemens S7-300 PLC and a Hilscher PKV40 Gateway. Our system needs a few I/O points, so there is some preference for the PLC.
Anyone have experience here?
