Create a project for your PLC with an Ethernet CP for the ISO protocol (see slide) and configure
the hardware provided.
You can choose your own names for the project and other items.
Save the project in the directory E:\COURSES\7KETHER.
Include a dummy object in your project to represent the PLC of the partner group.
Activate memory byte 100 as a clock memory
For S7-400 stations:
Do not assign the S7-400 CPU to a PROFIBUS subnet.
Define one station in the entire network as clock master. All the other stations are to act as clock
slaves and set their system time to the time received from the clock master.

For the Ethernet CP:

MAC Address:

H 080006017xy0

where

x = 3 for S7-300
x = 4 for S7-400

and

y = No of the station

Carry out a memory reset on your system.

Download the configuration to your PLC via the MPI connection. Make sure that both the CPU and
the Ethernet CP are in RUN mode when you have finished downloading.

Test the synchronization of the time-of-day via the network.

Use the NCM S7 Ethernet Diagnostics to identify the CP (CP Information) and ascertain the
operating mode.

Start the NCM Ethernet Diagnostics by both of the possible methods in turn.

Use the NCM S7 Ethernet Diagnostics to switch the CP to Stop mode and back to Run again.

Carry out a memory reset on the CP using the NCM S7 Ethernet Diagnostics.

Download the configuration for the CP again (CP configuration only) and switch the CP to Run
mode.

Configure an unspecified ISO transport connection to your partner PLC

Confer with your partner to choose a name for the connection, decide which partner is to initiate
connection establishment, and choose the TSAP addresses.

The TSAP addresses must, however, be 8 bytes long.

Download the connection table to the PLC and start up the connection.

Use both of the following tools to check whether the connection has been established:
