Mitsubishi FX5U - HMI communication IP port number

7 posts in this topic

Hardware & software HMI - Beijer iX T12B / iX Developer 2.10PLC - Mitsubishi FX5U / GX Works3Error HMI shows "Controller 1: Comm err station 0". i.e., The HMI isn't getting a response from the PLC. IP addresses are all correct and ping (and can be programmed) OK. The HMI software PLC comms configuration has a "port" setting - see below. I can't find anything comparable on the the Mitsubishi software. Does anyone know what insight I'm missing here? iX Developer is configured as shown below: Note the port setting above. I can't find any documentation on what the PLC is expecting or what's special about 1025. The PLC is setup as below with GX Works3: Anyone got any ideas how to get the two talking? Many thanks.

Haven't got my hands on a FX5U, but the driver for the iX is a ENET (it expects a FX3U-ENET module) driver so I doubt that it will work against a built-in FX5U ethernet port.

Thanks, kaare_t. Here are the options in iX Developer (HMI) and GX Works3 (PLC). Any suggestions on which to try? Mitsubishi UK say that the FX5U is more like a Q-series but iX Developer doesn't have a Q-series Ethernet option. Many thanks. Edited by Transistor

I figured it out. PLC configuration using GX Works3 HMI configuration using iX Developer Hit the Controller button ... Hit the Settings button ...

Great, obviously the FX5U built-in eth port uses the standard MC protocol (which is great)!

What model HMI are you using? And is it Ethernet on both HMI and PLC or serial? When you say "Comm. stops" what exactly happens? How do you "reset the controller configuration of the Beijer HMI"? Edited by Transistor
