Title: Siemens Communication with AdvancedHMI
Post by: Zags on March 15, 2025, 11:46:04 PM

Hello,
 
I have been trying to get Siemens communications working properly on AdvancedHMI following the steps i have seen in a few posts but i must be missing a step. Every time i try to build after installing the 2DLL's and the VB code i get the same errors. Here i steps i am following:

- Download and extract the 3 files
- Open the AdvancedHMI solution in VS
- In Solution Explorer expand down the AdvancedHMDrivers project
- Right click the Support folder and select Add Existing Items
- Browse to the 3 extracted files
- Change the file type filter to All Files
- Select the 2 DLL files
- With the 2 DLL files now in the Support folder, select each one by clicking once on it, then in the Properties set "Copy if Newer"

- Right click the AdvancedHMIDrivers project and Select Add Existing Item
- Browse to and select the SiemensCom.vb file

- Right click the AdvancedHMIDrivers project and Select Add References
- Browse to and select Snap7.net.dll

Well, i guess i should have downloaded the beta version of AdvancedHMI. The Beta version installed with no errors on the build. I need to test communications now.
