While install node-red-contrib-mpi-s7 in NODE-RED manage palette, although it is installed , but it displays MODULE\_NOT\_FOUND. I cannot find the reason .

Stop node-red and start it again in a command window. Post the full output that you get in the command window. There is very likely an error shown there.
I note, though, that there are a number of unaddressed issues reported on the [node's github page](https://github.com/st-one-io/node-red-contrib-mpi-s7/issues) over the last two years which have no response from the author, so I suspect that the node may be abandoned.

You don't appear to have answered my question.

It might be your node version is too old for the node!
If you do what colin asks, we could assess this.
