[?]: connecting ABB panel 836 with plc ac800m (851) through

[omar zedan]

Dear all
What i need (as a setting in software)for connecting panel 836 with plc ac800m (851) through TCP/IP ?
-I connected port 1 in plc to the panel using ethernet cable.
-I define variables in MMS tab in access variable.
-Set the IP for ethernet port (in 2 places (Ethernet port in setting tab and in CPU hardware properties identify))
but still there is no connection between plc and panel?

-I connected port 1 in plc to the panel using ethernet cable.

Did you connect PLC directly to the panel or through the ethernet hub? In case of direct connection it won't work - you need crossover cable.

I use cross cable and connected directly

Dear Linkinx64
I am sorry I was used my friend cable and it was straight (not crossover)
Now i replace the cable and every thing ok.
Thank you very much.
