Posted 24 Nov 2017 Hello everyone, can u help me out please, quite urgent !!! :( i have GS2107-WTBD HMI display along with FX5U-80MT-ESS, i had one of HMI designs made on GT designer 3 by earlier designer (not in my contact now). i uploaded the graphics to HMI module and later it stuck to the initial LOGO screen and doesnt move further, moreover the HMI is not communicating with PC. i suspect it had remote password with it how can i remove this issue or hardware rest the HMI with factory defaults guidance required Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 24 Nov 2017 (edited) I don't think that you have a password issue just that there is no comm with the PLC. Can you post the HMI ethernet settings and those of the FX5U? Edited 24 Nov 2017 by Gambit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 24 Nov 2017 presently i am just trying to use USB cable between PC and HMI & no FX5U is interfaced, here at least new graphic projects should have been uploaded, but it shows no communication and gives error and the HMI screen is frozen to Logo 'GOT SIMPLE' Please see attachments Thank You Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 24 Nov 2017 Is there any kind of Hardware Rest Available or any setting where i can set factory default parameter in HMI ???? :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 24 Nov 2017 Well you should be able to download the firmware this would set it into factory settings. But you seem to have a connection problem. What does the Device manager on your PC show when you plug in the USB cable ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 24 Nov 2017 (edited) Have you tried Rebooting the HMI and sending a new project when it's rebooting it should start when it's ready. Also can you read the project from the HMI? Edited 24 Nov 2017 by Gambit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 24 Nov 2017 (edited) You don't have comms to the FX5 that why they are not shown. Add a light on device SM412. When you have comms than that should start turning on and off Edited 24 Nov 2017 by Gambit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 26 Nov 2017 can anyone please mention procedure for FX5U - GS2107 Ethernet communication Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 27 Nov 2017 please send a screen capture of CH1:Melsec FX from GT Designer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 10 Jan 2018 You have used the wrong driver for FX5U, you have to use the MELSEC IQ-F driver instead of the FX driver. It will also change the port number to 5001. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
