Hey,
is it possible to operate the CP1616 with a PCI Express slot or can there be problems with drivers or similar in Certification-Tests (Profidrive/Profisafe/Profinet)?

The CP1616 only exists as a product with a PCI slot from Siemens. Using an PCI to PCIe adapter does not work stable for the certification test, as there can be timing issues with the correspondingly used special CP1616 driver.
