    Hello everbody,
    my name is Andre, I´m 52 and my english is a little rusty - sorry therefor. My problem is, I bought a used seatmover, but the PC brokedown and I had to install it new. But no there is no comunication between the PC and the Simatic. I used screenshots from the old PC for the right IP, but it doesn´t work. The PC teels only unknown network. I chanced the IP in the network to the IP it used to be - but nothing works. Do I need special software from siemens to make it working, or do you habe any ideas, what went wrong. If you need farther informations, please tell me.

    Please post the picture of your old settings buddy. My guess is the ip addresses have changed in your network, and you will need to figure out what IP address your controller is actually using.
