  1. Hi all,

    I will be starting on my MSc in automation in a couple of days so for that reason i have obtained a S7-1200 series 1211AC/DC/RLY PLC.
    This is a new area for me as i have been working in offshore since i graduated from my BSc a couple of years ago.

    I watched some Youtube tutorials on how the programming is done and i am ready to try it out for myself, but i have encountered a little problem.

     

    Problem:

    I am using the X1 P1 PROFINET (LAN) port as a connection to my PC, this turns the Green Link light on and the Rx/Tx lights blinks orange.

    Now to the problem, i cannot connect to the PLC through the TIA portal, no matter what settings and connection types i use in the PG/PC interface box.

    I have had no luck finding leturature adressing how to configure the PC/software and get a connection to the PLC.

    Do any of you have a PDF or link which can help me through this problem? 

    Hardware:

    S7-1200 series 1211AC/DC/RLY
