Hey Michael, thanks for all your help, greatly appreciated. Yes, it does specify V2 in that manual, I overlooked that. I originally started using this manual here http://support-omron.fr/pdf/FTP%20Function.pdf page 3 lists my model of HMI as compatible, I found the manual I posted earlier to be more clear, so I switched to that manual and did not double check what it listed for compatibility when I switched manuals. The manual I just posted a link for only mentions FTP I see. Is it possible the V1 can handle FTP but not web server? I am a disty, V1 is what Omron shipped directly to me to do my test on when I explained the application, they reassured me the V1 would do what I want, it would just be slower than the V2, this came direct from Omron but I guess it's always possible they made a mistake. I have not tried the cross-over cable, I will give that a try later today and will verify my router settings match what you have posted. Also I see you have your WAN IP highlighted in your router settings, but I do not see where you use it besides that? EDIT: I Just called Omron again and spoke to someone else, they said it 100% has to be the V2. I think we can call this one case closed. I will ship them back the V1 they sent me and request V2, I only received this recently, I was surprised they even had a V1 leftover to send.

Tried that, same problem. I confirmed my router IP is set to 192.168.0.1

My end goal here is to set up remote access/web interface for the NS HMI so it can be monitored and possibly controlled off site. It's a non-critical application, security is not a major concern. My HMI and PLC are both connected to a network hub, when I plug into the network hub with my laptop via the ethernet jack I am able to transfer to and upload from both the HMI with Cx-Designer and the PLC with CX-Programmer through the hub no problem everything works great, I made a small test program and the HMI and PLC work great together. I have port forwarded port 80 and 9600 for my HMI's IP address in my router I have the FTP/Web enabled on my HMI. From there if my laptop is plugged into the same hub I should be able to enter the HMI's IP address into my web browser and that should bring up the login screen, unfortunately this is where my issues is. My browser will not connect and I can not get to the login screen, I have tried with IE, Chrome and Firefox. My HMI system version is 8.21, the HMI itself is NS12-TS01-V1, yes V1 not V2, according to my manual it should work still. I have attached pictures of my HMI communication setup screen, PLC settings, my router port forwarding settings. My PLC is a CP1L-EM40DT1-D if that matters. The manual I am referencing is this one http://forums.mrplc.com/index.php?autocom=downloads&showfile=830 Any ideas?

Problem Solved The manual says to put a 200ms delay for initialization. I used the P_1s command thinking it is = 200ms * 5 so I should be okay This is not true even though the P_1s is greater than 200ms it will not work, as soon as I replaced the P_1s with a timer instruction it worked perfectly. The manual needs to be corrected, it should explicitly state that a timer function needs to be used specifically, not just a 200ms delay is required as that didn't work. They should have the foresight to realized there is more than 1 way to create a 200ms delay in their PLC and if there is only 1 correct use for the specific application they need to be more specific I emailed Omron's tech support twice and got no reply, this was the icing on the cake and what infuriates me most about the situation. I am very very upset the manual needs to be more specific and no one in tech support offered me ANY support at all, I got more help from this website than from Omron and you guys dont even make any money, it's their JOB to do this. I lost a MAJOR client over this debacle,

Hey guys thanks for the replys the goal was to input a voltage from 1-4 volts to AI0 so it was intentionally set for 1-5v I verified with my fluke multimeter voltage was present at vin and com did not think to jumper the Iin as the manual said to do so for current inputs not voltage I thought.. I had the setup word tied to first cycle and I verified the proper hex value was registered perhaps I should of set a delay there but I did not think it was necessary though as I could see the value in the memory tool I thought the 1 sec would be enough with the mov command update: a engineer go his hands on it and got it working so the unit must work. He didn't tell me how though all he said was the wiring was fine...if someone could enlighten me as to were I went wrong would be greatly appreciated

I have wrote a extremely basic ladder program to test/troubleshoot if a analogue input card is properly functioning, it is only 2 lines of code, embarrassingly it doesn't seem to work... I am hoping by pure coincidence I just so happened to get a bad card to test my test program with The goal of this program is to input a voltage that varies between 1-4 volts to AI 0 and monitor the value change in CIO word 1 using the memory tool, all we want to verify is that the AI card is taking a analogue value and generating a corresponding digital value The second rung of my program is just to move that value to D100; so that the corresponding CIO word 1 value should be present in the D100 memory area as well I have verified that the voltage is in fact present at the terminals Vin1 and Com1 and properly varies between 1-4 volts I am using the CP1L-L14DR-D and the CP1W-AD041 for hardware Is there something wrong with what I am trying to do here? or do you think the card is bad? I have attached a copy of my .cxp file CP1W-AD041 Test Program.cxp
