The S5 for Windows Status View does not work when online with a CPU102
When I go online with my S5 PLC running a CPU102 processor the status view does not appear to do anything.
The CPU 102 has two operating modes; “Test Mode” and “Normal Mode”. To display the Status of a PLC Block, the CPU must be in Test Mode. Changing the mode is described in the PLC manual published by Siemens, on page 7-21: https://cache.industry.siemens.com/dl/files/978/1091978/att_19648/v1/6ES5_998-0UB23.pdf
