Internetworking
If the CP you want to check with diagnostic functions can only be reached via a
gateway, you must select the device and specify its node address in the local
network.
You must also specify the S7 subnet ID of the destination network:
The subnet ID consists of two numbers separated by a dash:
One number for the project
One number for the subnet
You will find the subnet ID in the object properties of the subnet in the STEP 7
project. The subnet ID is also printed out with the network configuration.
Starting Diagnostics from the Properties Dialog of the CP
If the project data are available on your PG/PC, follow the steps outlined below:
1. Select the S7 station in the project and open the hardware configuration (HW
Config).
2. Select the CP and open the Properties dialog.
3. Select the “Diagnostics” dialog.
4. Select the “Run” button.
Result:
NCM S7 Diagnostics is opened. The path is set automatically to match the current
connection in STEP 7.
