  1. Remote I/O refresh problem

    Hi all, I’m having some problems regarding a digital input from a remote ethernet coupler input. My setup contais an Omron CJ2M cpu33, a switch, an Omron NS5 HMI (also ethernet) and 10 Wago Ethernet/IP couplers, all of which have 2 digital in- and 2 digital output cards. Every machine cycle all couplers recieve an input from a regulair proximity switch, this signal is high for about half a second and switches at a frequency of about every 2 seconds. Despite the fact there’s no high speed stuff going on here, the pulses are not processed properly. Monitoring my program I can see that the inputs are skipped and somtimes are not processed even for several machine cycles. Is my network too slow, can it be a scan time issue, or something else. I’ve come a long way building this system but I’m still fairly new to plc programming. Hope someone has a suggestion. Best regards,   Andy      
  2. Hello I have a SLC5/05 and a Microscan MV40 smart camera which receives commands to a TCP port. Is there a way the LSC 5/05 can send a command to the camera using the MSG instruction or any other instruction? I would appreciate any advice 
  3. Fx3ge to Fx3ge communication trough lan

    Hello, For my assignment, I need to control lights from 2 seperate locations. I have two FX3GE-24M plc's connected through a LAN network. The idea is that when input X004 gets high, relays Y000 to Y004 gets disabled. I'm trying to use the Fixed Buffer communication protocol.  Master IP address: 192.168.1.80 Slave IP address: 192.168.1.81 I'm using GX Works2 together with the FX configurator  I'm lost in all the different datasheets... Could someone point me to the direction on what settings i need to change using fx configurator and a basic program of communication?  Thanks in advance, Dennis
  4. We have a Injection Molding Machine from Mitsubishi with a A2US-S30 CPU. I would like to establish a communication of this PLC with a  PC. The CPU has a 25 Pin Dsub connector. How can I achieve this? This is an old machine and we don't have any manual for this PLC. Somehow I could find an instructions manual on the internet but this manual does not contain information regarding PC communication or supported communication modules.  I have never worked with this Mitsubishi A series PLC. Please suggest a way to start and share any manual which I could refer to. Thanks!
  5. My client is a pharmaceutical company and they want to interface their Blood Gas Analyzer (which is a RAPIDPoint 500) to a Controllogix PLC via EtherNet. I have attached a Spec that I found, which gives the initial information you would need to do this. It says that the BGA can transmit data in ASCII. However, it doesn't list what bits I need to send to the device in order for it to send the PLC the data. I've tried contacting Siemen's (who makes the BGA) and they were useless. I also tried searching the RA knowledgebase.  Does anyone have any insight on how to communicate with a device in this way? Thank you Tyler RP500_LIS_5_20_13_-_Rev_C_.pdf
  6. Omron CJ2M - Wago remote I/O

    Hi there, I’m not sure how familiar most of you are with Wago remote I/O, but I hope you may have some solution for the following connection problem I’m having. I’m working on a project to modernise an old folder collecting machine for which I’m using an Omron CJ2M Cpu33 together with 8 Wago 750-352 remote I/O units over ethernet/ip. These Wago units all contain two 8DI digital input cards and two 8DO digital output cards alongside a 750-610 bus power supply card. Adding them to my network in CX network manager is no problem and all seems to work fine. That is, as long as I don’t physically add the bus power supply card, which I need to, well.. power the Wago bus. Soon as I add this card (which was in place while making all the necessary settings to the Wago and Omron units) it just won’t connect. Remove it and it connects like it should. As far as I know the power supply card has no I/O addresses or other communication functions whatsoever, so I can’t get my head around it. Even stranger is that when instead of it I add an analog input card, with bus power connections build in, it connects without a problem. The .eds file only contains info about the main Wago unit, after installing it I should be able to add any kind of I/O card and address them in the Omron software. Also, the supply card is added and visible as a fifth card in the Wago I/O settings and the I/O status led is green during this error. Therefore I would say the problem is at the Omron side. Any sugestions?   Thanks in advance Andy - The Netherlands  
  7. Programming Analog Outputs - Problems

    Hi All, I've been perusing this forum and I've seen this topic covered before, but I still can't make heads or tails of how to do it still. I'm trying to vary an analog output 10v signal to talk to a VFD according to how much time a certain input bit is energized. Currently I have it set up as a totalising timer, trying to move the PV into a word so I can use it to scale an appropriate output. The trouble is, I'm not having any luck getting the output to do much of anything. No errors show up. For reference, I'm using a CJ2M CPU 12 PLC and the output I'm trying to program is a DA042V, its in slot 05 of the main rack. I'm trying to scale a 0-20 time to a 0-10V signal out. I used to have a problem and I was getting ~-.5V out of output 1, but I enabled a bit and now it's hanging out at 0V. Clearly I did something right. Any help would be much appreciated. I'm sure it's something silly, and I'm new at OMRON PLCs.
  8. WeinTek to AB PLC Issues

    I am connecting a WeinTek eMT3105P to a CompactLogix L2 series PLC via the WeinTek Rockwell PLC (CompactLogix) - Free Tags driver and I cannot for the life of me get the thing to connect. I have all my tags imported and have played around with all the settings in the manuals I can find. Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated. I know my IP addresses are correct and if I connect my cable directly from the HMI to the PLC I still get the "PLC no response" message 
  9. Hello.   I'm trying to communicate between two PLC's  using FINS function block _CPU011:ReceiveData.   PLC1: IP 192.168.1.50 (MASTER)   PLC2:IP 192.168.1.51 (SLAVE)   If I don't use »IP Address Table« everything works using NODE number &51.       The problem is that on the real project these two PLC's will be on different subnet.   For example:   PLC1: IP 192.168.1.50   PLC2: IP 192.168.2.50   So I will have to use »IP Address Table« to achieve communication between these two PLC's.   I tried to sett IP Address Table on MASTER: Node 1=192.168.2.50   But If I try to communicate I see that packet is sended to network but I've got error #1005.   Do I have to sett the SLAVE IP Address Table?   Hoe to do this?   What are the right settings for MASTER and SLAVE IP Address Table?     I'm attaching pictures of CARD settings.  I don't want to use CX-Integrator because I would like to make project to UPLOAD and forget.       Thanks.  
  10. CX-Simulator

    Hi guys, Do you have experience or know any good guides to set up a simulation case like this: - Simulating a PLC program such that the "PLC" is accessible on the Ethernet (for example just locally). - In addition, setting up the PLC settings with FINS protocol such that it is possible to write to the PLC with FINS protocol from another device. The first part is  most important. Best regards PC_VS_PLC
  11. Hi, I have a omron PLC in a FINS network. Should there be any problem connecting another PC to that network and ping the PLC?   I somehow don't get any response when I try to ping the PLC from a PC.   Best regards
  12. "This type of PLC is not supported", this is the error which appears when I try to connect cx programmer V9 to CJ2M-CPU11 using a USB (A type - B type) cable. Please help me resolving this error.
  13. We recently obtained a new Vendor ID (VID) Number from ODVA, 1477 for the purposes of developing an EtherNet/IP scanner device.  When we try to use that number with the Allen-Bradley PLC & Studio 5000 Logix Designer, our data type REAL's are showing up in Studio 5000 as SINT's.  We have seen this mangling of data types before when using the Omron VID, 47 with the same Allen-Bradley PLC/EIP Scanner.  The data types are being misinterpreted, or mangled from REAL to SINT, e.g. the *.eds file defines 32 REALs for Input and 32 REALs for Output, but within Studio 5000 we see 128 SINTs each for Input and Output. It is as though the Allen-Bradley/Studio 5000 database does not have our Vendor ID.  When I change the *.eds file, Vendor ID Number from #1477 to #1 then we see the *.eds file being properly read and interpreted, e.g. 32 REALs for Input and Output show up as 32 REALs each.  Does anyone know what file we need to modify in Studio 5000 ???  We want to add our Vendor ID #1477 to that file. Hardware: EIP Scanner: Allen-Bradley Compact Logix L18ERM EIP Adapter: Delta Tau Power PMAC Motion Controller (EIP OpeNer Stack) Thanks in advance! See screenshots below. within Studio 5000, see screenshots
  14. Hello to all, I am new here, and I have a project with FX3U plc and CR 2DA 700 robot controller. Does anyone have some experience in establishing communication over FX 3U enet module and robot controller, I need to send and receive 5- 10 M registers and D integers. Thanks
  15. Hello everybody, I have network from : PC - 192.168.3.11 PLC - 192.168.3.250 I change this option in FX5U PLC in GX Works3 for Network Ethernet port --> Application Setting -> Security -Disable Direct connect with MELSOFT : Enable/disable -DO not respond CPU module search : Respond / not respond and I upload program to PLC. After upload program to PLC and restart it was impossible to connect again. I Have ping between PLC and PC, but could't write program. Always writes me Error <ES:0180840b> So to disable Security Option you should to do : 1. Open Works3 2. New Project (Choose your PLC - FX5U) 3. Online menu 4. Specify Destination Communication 5. Click twice in PLC module 6. Set Connect via hub (In my case i connect PC and PLC directly !) 7. Choose IP Address ( in my project : 192.168.3.250 , PC must be in same network 192.168.3.X) 8. Give OK 9. Connect Test. With steps I disable security options and it was enable to connect to PLC and Write data on it. I Hope that will help to other with same problem.

  16. Hi All, Networking guy here, looking for network experts on a AB PLC (1756-EN3TR/B v217021900) which seems to STOP ARPing for a device after 10 ARP's. The device is purposefully powered down, but when powered up, it can take minutes before the PLC sees it again. The PLC team says only changes in the PLC's logic are made. When an older backup is restored though, I do NOT see the issue somehow. 1) The devices that are powered down are back on the network and reachable within 10 seconds or so (ping). The initial thought was that they were not even on the network, but they are. Just that PLC shows a comms loss. 2) With the 'good code', the PLC, once the device is offine, keeps sending ARPs to find the device. The first one is a directed one, the subsequent ones are broadcasts. These broadcasts keep happening till the device is back online and is able to talk to the PLC again. 1st ARP after comms is lost: 474.423859     Rockwell_cf:a7:6c     Hilscher_2e:ea:08     ARP      60     Who has 192.17.150.208? Tell 192.17.150.30 Next and subsequent ARPs after the first one: 475.423471     Rockwell_cf:a7:6c     Broadcast             ARP      60     Who has 192.17.150.208? Tell 192.17.150.30 These ARPs keep happening every 1 second, till the device is online again. 3) With the bad code, the PLC, once the device is offline, sends only 10 ARP messages total and then stops sending ARPs altogethe . Then it takes 10 minutes* before it sends another one. If the device is backup online by that time, the PLC finds it right away. SO with these 2 different code bases, how is that a low level L2 protocol like ARP is impacted so much. The PLC team tells me that they have no idea and not set anything related to it. My question is where is the ARP network behaviour governed and how to change it? How can older code which supposedly only has changes in logic have different ARP behavior? * The 10 minutes interval might lead people to think it's a ARP timer and most likely it is, but then people usually ask about gratuious ARPS (garp) and I've verified that they make it through from the device to the PLC OK. If the device is offline for say a minute, the PLC mirrored port does indeed see the garps, yet at that point the PLC is no longer ARPing and regardless of that garp, it has to sit out the time till it sends a next ARP till it connects. Thus, I suspect the coming back to life process is governed by the PLC ARPing for it, and not by the detection of a garps. Thanks everyone!  
  17.   Hello, I want to regulate the temperature by a thermocouple type T with an OMRON control module TC001 / 2/3 and a CJ2M CPU14 series PLC using CX-Programmer as a programming environment. Could you provide me with an example project? Thank you for your help.
  18. Hello, I was hoping for some help in trying to read/write to a handful of bits in a CJ1M-CPU13 controller from a Compact GuardLogix. The CJ1M rack has a CJ1W-ETN21 card that is already communicating to a handful of Yaskawa drives. Is it possible for me to communicate with this controller from a CLX unit over ethernet? I don't believe an ETN21 card uses EIP but is there a way around this? Right now, I'm struggling to even find the IP address of the ETN21 card as the CX-Programmer file provided to me by the customer does not have the card in the IO configuration and I've never worked with Omron PLCs before. I found a CJ2M to CLX guide but it assumes communication over Ethernet IP and the ethernet port is native to the controller. Any help at all would be appreciated. Thanks!

  20. Hello, I need to make an ethernet communication Siemens S7-300 <> Omron G9SP. The HW of the Siemens that i us are CPU 315 2DP and CP 343-1 Lean. I did try to follow the Omron manuals Z922 and Z924, but faced with some problems. First of all in Z924 there is no complete HW configuration of Siemens (communication configuration is missing). Also, formats of messages differ in both manuals. Maybe there is an Simatic Step 7 project example, that i could open with Simatic Step 7 manager to do a deeper investigation, or maybe somebody has a lot more experience in this case? Thank you in advance.   WBR @rturas
  21. OK getting my feet wet with datalogging, have enough understanding to be dangerous, took me forever to figure out the sample datalogging code with the @ symbols in front of memory-locations. Anyways I finally got the datalog and filewrite code logging to the EM0 memory area working after it kept truncating the logged word off my first record, recording the timestamp but not the word of data that changed;  btw for anyone using that sample program needs to change the "MOV #7FFF @D1100" log pointer to "MOV#8000 @D1100" if you're logging to EM0, at least for the CJ1M & CJ2M I haven't tried it on anything else. It seems like EM0 can be treated like an extension of D-memory, so D8000 is an alias for the first word of EM0_00000 Aaaanyways, so we have people shutting machines down so the andon-lights power down, so I gotta log power-up and power-downs. Datalogging the power-on time I'm thinking use the A200.11 first-cycle flag bit to write 0000 0000 0000 0000 or something to the next word in the EM0 log at the pointer, along with the A351 mmss, A352 ddhh , A353 yymm timestamps (in addition to writing it to the "compare for changes" D-Word) OK now datalogging the time of a power-off has got me chasing my tail. Found the "Power OFF Interrupt task", it seems a bit sketchy to try to MOV the 3 timestamp words to EM0 in the 3-5ms you get, is this how the rest of you do it? Does anyone have any sample logic? I'm trying to picture the sequencing. Another option looks safer, "CJ2 Programming Manual" Section 6-6 page 329 shows "Auxiliary Area Flags and Words" A512 and A513 as the "Power Interruption Time" (doesn't say, but I'll assume its A512 = ddhh & A513 =mmss ), so since we still need yymm to timestamp (and  my normal datalogs would be 1 logged word + 3 timestamp words),  I could log it at power-up instead, use the same A200.11 first-cycle flag to first write "0000 0000 0000 1111" or something into the EM0 log at the pointer, then A512 , A513 power-interrupted timestamp flags, then  A353 the current mmyy as the power-down mmyy since OMRON decided not to store a full "Power - interrupt" timestamp. Would this work? I think I'd only have a messed up log if the PLC was powered down more than a month .... dammit no it wouldn't work, machine powers down 15:30:06 9/30/17 so the CJ2 stores the mmss (3006) hhdd (1530) it powers down, next day on 10/1/17 at first cycle its going to log power-interrupt day correctly as the 30th, but the month will be logged as October.  I'd have a faithful 1 bad timestamp a month doing that. Did OMRON only have a power-fail timestamp-flag for the mmss and ddhh to screw with us? Would it have been that hard to log the yymm too? I'd rather not try to log the timestamp using the "Power OFF Interrupt task" in case that just so happens to be the end of the pointer-buffer and the normal "logging" section tries to do a FWRIT from EM0 to the memory card...
  22. Cimplicity 7,5

    Good Day There is a SCADA Cimplicity and controller Control logix 5561 AB. Communication between them is organized via Ethernet IP. It is necessary to transfer some tags from the Cimplicity to the controller Control Logix. How to do it better? Through Rslinx DDE OPC or write scripts in the Cimplicity? 
  23. I am using rslinx in my configuration with 2 devices: windows xp computer and an SLC 5/05 CPU.  The XP PC is running a program that relies on a file that is automatically dropped in a shared folder from a separate networked PC.  The file is deleted immediately from the shared folder.  The program on the XP PC uses rslinx to control the SLC 5/05 CPU to complete the operation.  The original XP PC hard drive failed and a new PC was installed with all the necessary software and services.  Ounce I completed the  setup, the process worked for 48 hours, then stuck in one operation (one file).  Now, I can restart rslinx and the software and the process will function normally, but stall, then get stuck on one file.  There are no files in the shared folder, rslinks has not lost connection.  The original router was replaced at the same time as the PC.  I am leaning towards rslinx storing the files somewhere and stalling/stopping the operation.  I can not find files anywhere.  Does the SLC 5/05 CPU store the files?  I'm lost.  Do you have any troubleshooting suggestions?  
  24. Hi everybody: I'm writing here because I have an Etherhet problem with my compactlogix 1769-L32E. I connect a crossover cable between my pC and the controller, then I run the BOOTDHCP server program . The BOOT DHCP window only shows the MAC of the PC, the controller´s MAC doesn't show even if i wait for more than 10 minutes I hope you can´t hel  
  25. Is it possible to communicate from a PC program to PLC program for reading inputs and setting outputs? How can it be made ? is it possible to do from TER connector or AUX connector , without special comm module?
