I am connecting to an S7 318-2 with CP343-1. I have setup Write & Fetch connections and can communicate using the Parijat ActiveX control. My issue is that once I have connected to the port on the S7, I can not make any more connections.

I there a way to allow multiple connections or do I have to just add several Connections in the configuration and assign them different ports?
