Communicating with a Siemens S120 Drive over Profinet?

Does anyone have any experience using LabVIEW to control a Siemens Sinamatic S120 drive over Profinet.  Siemens has a very basic application note which describes using a DLL that they provide to interface with the S120 drive.  It is really unclear if all the drive parameters can be controlled using this interface.

Does anyone have any experience using LabView to control a Siemens S120 drive?  How difficult is it?

Hi ipbrown,

 

I personally have not used that hardware setup, but you might have better luck finding someone who has by posting this on our Industrial Communications forum. While this forum (LabVIEW) has more users, the users that browse the Industrial Communications forum might have a better chance of using the Siemens drive.

 

Have a nice day,
