  1. CPM2A: connecting to PC running CX-One

    Nasty hobbittses at Omron... Is this the correct pinout? PLC PC ----------- FG-1 > 1 SD-2 > 2-RD RD-3 > 3-SD RS-4 4-DTR ] [ CS-5 6-DSR SG-9 > 5-SG 7-RS [ 8-CS
  2. Hey, all, I'm new to Omron and am finding conflicting information on forums. I have customers who have a bunch of machines with CPM2A's. The Omron rep has told us that we need to purchase a peripheral port cable in order to go onlline with CX-One, upload/download, etc. However, I've found posts in forums showing a pinout for a cable that connects to the serial port of the CPM2A. And CX-One was able to auto-detect the PLC. Is it possible to detect, monitor, upload/download using the serial port on the CPM2A? Or do I need to buy the $400+ cable from Omron and connect through the peripheral port? Thanks!
