Hi,

Thanks for the reply. Im currently using Simatic S5 133U and want to communicate with Tricon PLC via Triconex TCM card. Hence i placed an order for CP524 and a sub-interface module for RS-485 connection. But when requested for a standard modbus RTU driver, I was told that there was only specific driver modbus programs for different vendors. How could this be possible as i understand siemens must have a standard Modbus rtu protol driver? Does S5 133u PLC support a CP which supports Modbus TCP/IP?
