	Whats the connection your using to your CPU? MPI/DP? Serial? not sure about the differances between the S7-300's and the S7-200's, we don't use the '200's.. The Simatic-7 software I have here just has '300 and '400 series, the '200 series is not in its programming __________________ Qn, Whats the differance between a Snake and a Onion?

	No you cannot. The S7-200 is a completely different product from the 300 and 400 series (which are compatible by the way). They were developed by two different product divisions; the S7-300 / 400 was developed in Germany, the S7-200 was developed in the US for a large OEM who didn't need the power of the 300 and eventually migrated back to Germany and made part of the S7 family after the fact. The software all looks and programs the same to the user (within the limits of the differing capabilities), but the internal machine code is completely different and incompatible. __________________ All I every really wanted to be, was...
