problem connecting omron cj1m(cpu11) to HMI NS8

17 posts in this topic

Hey, 

 

a couple of days ago it worked just fine, they reacted to each other like they were supposed to. but after I uploaded the exact same file (but with 1 extra word button) they don't seem to see each other anymore, I've checked the IP adresses and hardware connections but everything is fine....  

 

whenever I click something on the HMI I keep getting an error which says '' time-out error occurs while downloading by the following case: -disconnection from the cable  -Stopped host -Incorrect time-out period                allocating host: host3

 

does anyone here have a solution or any tips for me?

 

kind regards, 

Deuslupos

the one I added last is the big blue one in the control screen. I was trying to figure out how to use the button.

Did you accidentally change your protocol to EtherNet/IP for the host setup?

You do not have an EtherNet/IP module on the CJ1M, just an ETN21 (Ethernet).

Your comms setup for Host3 probably should look like this:

I did that on purpose because the other ones didn't work. (I had contact with the omron helpdesk when I just started using the plc. and this is what they reccomanded. but I'll try the one you set up. thank you:)

should the node adress here be the node adress of the HMI screen or the PLC node?

oh wait, the one over there hasn't been touched by me, I've been editing this from a file the last intern here made.

When configuring the HOST, that is the FINS node number of the PLC.  If you click the Ethernet option (just above Host3 in the tree on the left), then you set the HMI IP Address and FINS Network and node numbers there.

haha, that was what I ment with my post, I just re-read it, and I formulated it a bit too vague, I'm sorry for that.

Michael, any way you could help me out with this different issue? for some reason I can't even transfer to my HMI trough my RS232 cable anymore..... something went terribly wrong :(

Try using the USB port (Slave).  It is much faster anyway.

can I just use a normal USB m/m cable to do that or will I need a special one?
