If you have the 5H bundle, it is essential to acquire the Modbus license from Siemens to prevent redundancy. The software media kit contains special blocks that require information from NetPro, such as the NetPro ID and the DB for the data. I have typically utilized PCS7 as the Master in the past. Utilizing blocks from Siemens makes this process very straightforward. For optimal high availability, it is not recommended to rely on standard methods.

In order to fully utilize the 5H bundle, it is necessary to obtain the redundant Modbus license from Siemens. This license includes special blocks within the software media kit. Information from NetPro must be entered, including the Netpro ID and DB for the data. I have always found success using PCS7 as the Master, but it is important to use the blocks provided by Siemens for optimal functionality. It is not recommended to rely on standard methods for high availability. Additionally, please note that Modbus RTU freeport cannot be used with Fb640 and fb641.

Sure, I can help with that. I've worked on a cm ptp ET200 SP HA configuration with a 410-5H DCS and PCS7 9.1 SP1 for MODBUS communication a while ago. I'll dive into my archives and see if I can pull out the example you need. Meanwhile, a good tip is to ensure the MODBUS parameters are set correctly. It's a common pitfall to rush through it and end up with flawed communication.

While I personally don't have a sample project with the exact specifications you need, I'd recommend checking Siemens' own online resources. They have a vast library for different configurations and systems. Their technical applications and service support is also in a great position to guide you appropriately. Furthermore, you may find applicable insights in online control engineering forums or communities like PLC Talk or Control.com. Good luck in your project!

Have you checked out the Siemens support forums? They often have user-shared projects, and I've seen some detailed examples of the ET200 SP HA with MODBUS integration. Plus, you might find some helpful guides and tips from others who have navigated similar setups with PLCs and DCS systems, especially as it can get quite technical.

I’d recommend checking out some of the Siemens forums or GitHub repositories, as many users share their sample projects there. You might also find useful insights on integrating the CM PTP ET200 SP HA with the 410-5H DCS for MODBUS communications; community-driven resources often include specific configurations and code snippets that can save you a lot of time. Plus, reaching out directly to Siemens support or user groups can sometimes yield personalized examples from experienced developers.
