    Software Simodrive 611

    Hello,
    does someone knows a software to read the parameters from a simodrive 611 AM-Modul with a serial port?

    Many Thanks

    Hans

    I think you mean profibus port?

    Does it look like a serial adapter? 9-Pin D-Sub?

    Jokes on you, they only use 4 pins.

    the best way is to use what Siemens calls an MPI cable like this.

    You will need Step 7 version 5.5. To use the cable you will have to select the correct port in a little control panel section that will be installed with step 7 called "Set PG/PC Interface" to your USB port (comm1 usually) with MPI as the designator.

    You could probably hack your way through it. You can sniff the memory blocks and read /write anywhere with s7.net for c# or snap7 for python.
