attempt to connect via Ethernet. Reason: In STEP 7, the last connection path used to
download the project data is stored.
Note
Canceling a TeleService connection when calling online dialogs
An existing TeleService connection is canceled when you attempt to access an additional
station or a node.
When there is an existing TeleService connection, do not select any of the menu commands
"Go online", "Online & Diagnostics", "Load to device", "Extended download to device" or
"Accessible nodes".
Mechanisms of connection establishment
The request for establishment of a TeleService connection is triggered by the engineering
station. This request is sent via the intranet or Internet to the TeleService server (telecontrol
server or TeleService gateway).
The TeleService server forwards to request to the CP in the S7 station. The TeleService
server sends the request by e-mail to the SMS gateway which converts the e-mail and
forwards it as an SMS to the CP in the S7 station via the mobile wireless network.
The TeleService connection is finally actively established by the CP.
