Hi Florian,

The most convenient way for us has been using s7nodave support for example like in this tutorial [1].
The advantage is that you don't need additional programming on the PLC side. And if you have a S7-300 CPU with DN/DP you don't need an additional communication module.

Regards,
Jens

Hey all,

for the vacuum system of our tracking detector we want to use a PLC. We decided to use a Siemens S7-300 which should control the pumps, gauges and valves of our system.

The main question now is how to connect the PLC to our EPICS system?
I've seen that the CPU module has PROFINET or PROFIBUS DP interfaces. Is there a device support available for those? Is there a better/easier interface available maybe via an additional communication processor?

Any feedback appreciated!

Best regards,

Florian
