Hello all,
I'm having an issue connecting to a S7-1500 PLC via the S7+ Driver. I am accessing the PLC over a VPN, where I can ping the PLC, but I can't get the S7+ Driver to connect.
Oddly enough, I tried using the S7 Driver, and I was able to connect to the PLC without any issues.
Has anyone else had an issue using the S7+ driver over a VPN in a different time zone?

Hello Vincent,
for the S7+ driver not only the IP address setting is important but also the configuration of the Access Point, which has to be configured in external Siemens software component called "Set PG/PC Interface". Presumably you have to configure another network device for the active VPN connection instead of the default network card.
Best regards,
Daniel
