Installing the interface card
Installing the interface card in the PG/PC
Communication between a SIMOTION device and a PG/PC requires an interface card for
PROFIBUS or an Ethernet interface. PGs already have both, but PCs may need an interface
card to be installed.
The PG/PC is used for configuration, parameter assignment, programming, and testing.
● Install the interface card in the PG/PC according to the manufacturer's installation
instructions.
● Install the appropriate drivers on the PG/PC.
● Connect the interface card to the interface of the SIMOTION device indicated below using
a suitable cable.
