    1 Description The MPI-II-Cable connects the programming device or PC over the serial Interface (COM-Port) or the PC over the USB-Bus with the MPI- or DP/FMS-Connector of the S7-300/400 PLC. The Cable selects automatically on the first access which Port and which Baud rate is used. With our PLC- Programming-Application PG-95/PG-2000 or S7-for-Windows works the MPI-II-Cable with up to 115.2kBaud on the PC - Side.
