  1. hi again every1, ive managed to salvage some parts that have been decommissioned or not used to create a test control box, i currently have a CP1l-EL20 connected to a NB7w tw01b and have an eWON cosy 131 on order for me to play around with, however i recently noticed that the built in cp1l-el20 Ethernet port is FINS only and i am anticipating this causing problems. am i right in thinking that my cp1l will not be able to communicate through my eWON? do i need to get some form of adapter to convert the FINS? or maybe i'm wrong and it will all work. if anyone who knows could enlighten me that would be great, thanks
  2. floating point shift register

    hi all, i'm currently trying to shift register some data in the floating point (double word) format, just for an example i,m using a 0-20mA 0-40 bar pressure sensor to gather information from a can filler and want to log the data for lets say the previous 20 cans. i understand how the shift register works and can get it to work with single word just fine, im using floating point to make my life a bit easier by using sleepy wombat's scaling function block, i need decimal points as i will be expecting reading around 4.5 or so bar and expected to be within .2 tolerence this will then have to displayed on a HMI, which i assume will be easy enough
  3. ad041 analog expansion resolution

    hi everyone, ive recently started working at a company who uses omron PLC's im a bit more familiar with siemens i used in university.   one of my first tasks at work was to go through the current plc programs we have installed, ive noticed going through them that the previous engineer doesnt use the whole resolution of the analog input, i was wandering if this was some sort of practice im not familiar with or if they just have done it their own way. for example the ad041 expansion unit has a resolution of 1/6000, which would be  scale of 0-1770 in hex, however in the programs im looking through this top end hex value is always listed as 1700.   im assuming there some safety precaution or something that i don't know about, thanks for any answers in advance * the image is of the data points being put into the SCL function  
  4. Has anyone had experience with EtherCAT Communications using Sysmac, NJ5 PLC & Yaskawa SI-ES3 EtherCAT Comms board for A1000 VFD?  I have looked at the manual, but as I am still green on Sysmac & Omron programming in general.....not sure I understand what to do to simple Drive Status monitoring, Execute RUN/STOP & Speed Select... Thanks in advance :) 
  5. Function Block addressing

    Hello all.  I have a program which has 8 function blocks. I recently added extra functionality to one of the programs (not the function blocks). I added the new variables to the global symbols table and added the new code, but when I compiled the new code, the variable addresses in three of the function blocks had changed. This is a problem, because we use memory cassettes to download new versions of code, so when the new version is downloaded to a machine in some far flung part of the world, these variables will be overwritten (they are hours run variable, so are important for servicing purposes).   My understanding is that CX assign's variable addresses in Function Blocks and we have no control over this. Bit if I only added variables to the Global symbol table, why are the FB addresses affected??   Any input appreciated. 
  6. Omron rs485 communication

    I am using OMRON CJ2M-CPU15 with SCU41-V1 communication module I want to establish communication (rs485 modbus) between omron and Schneider device for reading out electrical parameters. How I can do this? I could not find any manuals and this is becoming very hard for me. I want simply to read few registers from Schneider. Where do I set unit number, starting register, ending register, number of data? I was recently using Siemens and Unitronix and started working with Omron recenlty. Do you have any examples or manuals for this? Thanks in advance

  10. CP1L-EL TCP/IP with VideoJet Printer

    Hello, My previous topic was want to establish communication CP1E --> Videojeet Printer using RS232 serial cable. this project test SUCCESS. by the way distance from printer and PLC was very far almost 500meter. so printer technical team request to use tcp communication using cat5e cable. Problem: 1. I'm using TCP communication protocol that need me to have open,send,receive,close port. 2. Communication testing with PC Hyper Terminal --> OK but HT need in waiting call mode, i don't know why. 3. Using printer no result show. how i'm suppose to know communication already establish? 4. Communication setting on PLC Setting-Built in Enthernet need to add other communication device.? here i'm share some programs to give more understanding. Thanksm TCP with printer.cxp

  12. Omron CP1E Clock adjustment

    I'm working on a project with Omron CP1E-N30DR-A Plc (And yes it does have the timeclock) And Omron NB7W-TW00B HMI I'm trying to use the Clock adjustment DATE(735) feature in the Plc program. In conjunction with the HMI to correct the time. Only focused on the Plc program for now. And presume I can accomplish the HMI portion once Plc program is working. Been fumbling with the Instruction manual descriptions several days and seems I'm not getting anywhere. Is there a possibilty to find an example program for this feature somewhere online? Or could someone possibly create an example program? I realize I might have missed some key information things in this topic. But lets see if I get any response at all.
  13. Hello, From modbus, Im reading a HEX variable in the data register D0, as it is a 32 bit variable, the second part is saved in D1, then I get: D0: BE62 D1: 31D7 The value that I should obtain in float is -0.2208932 as I obtained setting  BE6231D7 in online Hex to float converter and this agree with what I'm reading on the flowmeter.  The problem is that when I try to change the data type from channel to Real on CX programmer I obtain a different value, also the registers are not sort in the proper way, instead they are sort inversely 31D7BE62, and obviusly the obtained value is completely different. Also instead of Hex, I want to display the decimal, or floating value, is there a way to do this? I'll attach some captures.    
  14. Hello, I have been so many days trying to comunicate the multiway software trought a serial usb converter with the SCU31 device, using a omron function block to read a holding register, but I can't achieved it. Now Im receiving some frames on multiway, but there is always some errors. I was wondering if somebody in here that have worked previously with modbus and omron can be able to help me in how to configure everything corectly to be able to read the value from multiway, on the plc, and where is this value saved.  I'll upload some captures to show what I have done till now.    
  15. Hello, One thing that I constantly find hard to do when I program in SFC is to properly reset a FSM. If something goes wrong during the process I like to be able to reset the program. In Ladder this is quite simple to accomplish. Usually, I have a variable (non volatile) which is responsible for the step transition. If I want to reset the FSM I just use the function MOV to disable every step variable, which turn off the entire FSM. If I want to restart the program I use the MOV function again to enable only the first step. So my question is: how can we accomplish that in a SFC program? Lets not consider the option of having a reset transition in each step... Best regards, Paulo
  16. CJ2M HSC input

    I have omron plc CJ2M CPU15 and I have input module CJ1W-MD261 (32 inputs, 32 outputs) and I was wondering can I MD261 module for hsc inputs? When I open CX programmer and go to settings and go to "IO Module" I see that I can include HSC input and I assigned it to Input 08 and what is that input? Is that input 0.08 on MD261 because my plc has no integrated inputs or outputs  (image included at the bottom). Any help is wellcome
  17. Hi all,  I am trying to update the firmware of a NS12-TS01B-V2. I have downloaded the RecoverUpdate_8_95.exe (and someothers) from the myomron website. I have followed the instrucctions PDF, but when I switch on the HMI with the Compact Flash inserted, nothing happens: the screen is dark and the led is lit orange (not blinking).  The compact flash is 1GB (not omron) and formated using a CJ2. I have been using this card in OMRON PLCs and HMIs for years without problems.  I read in other topic than I guy had similar problems and he solved it using other computer and other unzipper program. I have tried it, but it did not work.  After that, I tried to update it using the DIP switches, but I got more problems, because I got a Warning first, and later an Error, because I forced the installation of the Firmware of the NS8 (BANK1) instead of the NS12. However, the other BANK folder contains the FW for the NS5... Anyway, I could fix this error because previously I did a backup of the already installed system (V7.0). I would like to ask you to send me a BackUp of another NS12, using the "Manual Transfer", that should works. I need the 8.20 version or higher.  Thanks a lot.  My email is hector.moreno.lax@gmail.com
  18. How do I edit an array size ARRAY[0..13] OF REAL to ARRAY[0..15] OF REAL? Sysmac Studio doesn't allow it to be done online, as far as I can see. If I do it offline and then go online and Synchronise, Transfer to Controller I receive error Any ideas?
  19. Control Panel

    Is it possible to view the values / states of all inputs, outputs and workbits (e.g. 64.00 through 64.15 on Omron CQM1 PLC) on a single screen or control panel within CX-Programmer software?  I'm trying to troubleshoot some ladder logic that I wrote and need to know the values of 5 or 6 inputs/outputs/workbits simultaneously.  Having to scroll up and down through my ladder logic repeatedly does not work well with code that changes state every 5-10 seconds or so. Any help is welcome.
  20. Help, NX communication with CQM1H

    Hello, I have a PLC NX102-9020 with an NX-CIF105 card. I need to communicate with 3 CQM1H, with Host Link protocol. Someone could tell me how to do it or if you have an example. The frames to send I already have defined and tested, I just need to implement it in the PLC. Sorry for the translation, it's done with Google. Thanks

  24. Using a AD041 and DA041

    Hi, I'm using a CJ2M CPU 33, and also a CJ1m Ad-041-V1 Analog Input and DA-041 Analog Output card.  I am using the Analog input to measure my current in my one heating application and  Ihave that reading and scaled correctly, but now  I want to use my Analog output to replace the Rheostat  we have in the system. I'm having some issues setting the range and getting voltage to vary. I also am a little new to Analog Outputs and don't know what I'm doing wrong. I have attached my program here. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Analog Heat.cxp
