Configuration
Configured connections
If you want to use a configured connection, first insert a new S7 connection in the
STEP 7 program packet NetPro. In the screen "Insert new connection," specify the
type of station with which you want to establish a connection. As connection part-
ner, select the type "unspecified."
The next step is to configure this connection. In the screen "Properties - S7-
connection" (see Fig. 8), specify whether your S7-300 or S7-400 system is to be
the active or passive station. If your S7-300 or S7-400 system is to communicate
with an S7-200 system, you must also specify whether your system is the client or
the server. If you want your S7-300 or S7-400 to be the client, activate the entry
"activ connection generation." If this entry is not activated, your system will be the
server. Then specify that your S7 connection is to be handled via TCP/IP. Select
the item "TCP/IP." Also specify its IP address so that a TCP/IP connection can be
established with your partner.
