OLD Siemens PLC

6 posts in this topic

I have an old stretch wrapper with a Siemens S7-200, CPU 222. The Catalog number is 6ES7212-1AB21-0XB0. I need to know what software will communicate with it as I need to extract the program for conversion to Direct Logic.

I have S7-300 software available but it is difficult to get to. Will it work?

Hi,

You need Microwin software.

To be able to run on Win10, I suggest you to instal Microwin v4.0 SP9.

You need also PPI adapter, not MPI  as S7-300.

Microwin v4.0 sp9 runs on windows 10? Any tricks to it. My IT guy will be happy to bury the last Windows 7 computer.

I have the .MWP file but I can't open it since I don't have the software. The original manufacturer can't get me a printout of the file since they have moved away from Siemens PLC's. Is it possible to get someone to send me the printout so I can troubleshoot what is happening in the system? At this point I only have the I/O indicators to go by. With the printout I can program a similar Automation Direct PLC and replace the Siemens.

 

Attached is the file. If anyone can help, I would appreciate it.
