Connect PG/PC with the PLC

Introduction
SIMATIC Manager is a GUI for online/offline editing of S7 objects (projects, user programs,
blocks, hardware stations and tools).
You can perform the following actions with the SIMATIC Manager:
● Manage projects and libraries
● Call STEP 7 tools
● Establish an online connection to the PLC
A corresponding editing tool is started up when you open the relevant objects. The program
editor starts by double-clicking a program block. The block can be processed.
Starting SIMATIC Manager
After installation, the SIMATIC Manager icon appears on the Windows desktop, and in the Start
menu a "SIMATIC Manager" program item appears under "SIMATIC".
● Start the SIMATIC Manager by double-clicking the link on the Windows desktop or from the
Start menu.
● The online help for the active window is always called by pressing the <F1> function key.
Establishing communication with the PLC
To load the configuration into the PLC, the connection (Ethernet) from the PG/PC to the PLC
required for the loading must be ensured.
Procedure:
1. Select menu command: "Extras" > "Set PG/PC interface..."
2. Under the "Access mode" tab, look for the interface used in the "Interface parameterization
used" selection field, for instance: "TCP/IP → Realtek RTL8139/810x F..."
3. Confirm the parameterization with "OK".
Note
Parameterization of the PG/PC interface can be performed or changed from the SIMATIC
Manager at any time.
