Hello,
I'd like to connect a HMIST6400 (programmed with ESOTE) with a TM221CE24R PLC (programmed with MachineExpert Basic).
I have exported the PLC symbols, but MEB allows only the .csv format which is not recognized by HMI.
How could I connect these two devices?

The way is easier than you expect.
Add a SE Modbus TCP driver (or SIO)
And then import the Basic file via symbol import

Thanks for your reply, @Bastian_Schmitz !
I have done as you suggested but I get an error: "Invalid device address. Enable or disable IEC address mode in the equipment." How should I do this? It's true that I don't use Modbus addresses but memory addresses.
Later edit. I have seen the video suggested by @LeTomas and I've how he's done it.
