PPI configuration

Generally, the same thing applies under PPI as for the MPI configuration. However, it should be
noted that passive participants never transmit the Profibus parameters, and that it is thus not
possible to automatically determine the bus parameters.
In addition to the parameter transmission rate already addressed under section
Highest Station Address, the parameter field for Advanced PPI is also available for selection under
PPI:
According to current knowledge, all S7-200 CPUs of the product line 22x should be able to
communicate with Advanced PPI. It is recommended to use Advanced PPI if possible.

Local connection (TCP parametrization)

There are three basic ways of parameterizing NETLink S7-Compact devices at the TCP end:
§
Parameterization via Set PG/PC interface
Existing stations can be reparameterized using the [Change] button
§
Parameterization via the NETLink PRO configuration tool (see Section
Family Configuration
§
Parameterization via the web interface of the NETLink S7-Compact Gateway (see Section
Status
If a NETLink S7-Compact is configured via the NETLink S7-Compact driver, the following points must
be considered:

Normally the baud rate cannot be detected automatically at PPI systems.

For communications with an EM 277 unit, the Advanced PPI option must be enabled.
