Posted 10 Jun 2019 I'm new to Mitsubishi PLC programming. I want to communicate my Q13UDEHCPU (Q-series PLC CPU) and GT2308-VTBA (GOT2000 HMI) by using the built-in Ethernet port on the 2 devices Picture 1 to 3 shown the setting in the GOT2000 HMI using GT-Designer program, Picture 4 shown the setting in the PLC CPU using GX-Work program Picture 1: I/F Communication Setting Picture 2: Controller Setting Picture 3: GOT Ethernet setting Picture 4: Built-in Ethernet port Setting Beside than the setting in the 4 pictures, is there any other setting i need to do so that the 2 devices can communicate via built-in Ethernet port Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 11 Jun 2019 I think that problem is because of setting same station number for Got and PLC. Please change GOT station number to 40. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir, what u mean by same station no? Is it the same IP address? So i need to set the IP address for GOT at picture 3 to 192.168.3.40 and set the IP address for PLC in picture 4 to 192.168.3.39? But why i need to set them as 40 and 39? Because when i see from the Mitsubishi manual, it set the IP address for GOT and PLC as 18 and 39 Beside than that, in the manual it had stated that setting in PLC side is not needed.

Beside than that, am I needed to set the IP address port no to different value as shown in the picture below? Edited 13 Jun 2019 by LEMON FOAM Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 13 Jun 2019 Yes, you need to set different stations numbers. For IP adress you need to set them into same group: 192.168.3.***. For example: PLC: 192.168.3.39 GOT: 192.168.3.18 By the way, if you have clean PLC and GOT, you don't have to change anything in PLC parameters and in GT-Designer it is enough to select correct Controller type and connection type. All other settings should stay defaults. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As conclusion, if we need to connect PLC and GOT by built in ethernet port, we need to set them into different station and IP. Am i right? And what did u mean a clean PLC and GOT, is it a new PLC and GOT? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
