(0)  I'm currently working with an ET200Pro application. The setup consists of two racks on a PROFINET bus; a master IM154-8F PN/DP, and a slave IM154-4PN. Each has an ET200 Pro FC located after a F-Switch in the rack. Using STARTER i can communicate to the slave rack FC and configure the drive. The problem is trying to connect the FC located in the master rack behind the IM 154-8F. Simply put, I can't. I setup up the comms in the same manner but no luck. Are there any special considerations for the FC behind the F CPU? Can the FCPU allow pass through on the bus to see the FC? I'm at a complete loss here and would appreciate any input. Regards
