The availability of communications modules will be especially critical on the TI505 side, as Siemens does not produce them any more -- look at the CTI site for alternatives, if required (http://www.controltechnology.com/). The easiest way to send 244 bytes In and OUT between the CPUs would be Profibus-DP (generally available on both CPUs); you can either set the S7 as a slave on the bus and use COM Profibus to coonfigure the exchanges on the TI505 side; or you can use a DP/DP coupler, which acts as a slave to both CPUs (acting as master). For any more details at this stage, start by skimming the available manuals on the suggested FAQ, and come back here for more help. Hope this helps, Daniel Chartier === Edited by dchartier @ 11/8/2009 9:38 PM [GMT ] ===

Thank you very much I believe this is possible if my s7-cpu have at least 2dp port. Please confirm this. Thank you very much... === Edited by Begginer @ 11/20/2009 7:07 PM [GMT ] ===

Actually, you are not limited to a single DP/DP coupler per bus, it is considered a single ordinary slave on each configurator. Hope this helps, Daniel Chartier
