yes i have obtained Fins Gateway....but i am still having the same problem. When i do a configuration test, it cant locate the plc. I dont know why that is......any ideas would be great.

i am using the ladder logic for send as i tried to follow th example in the ethernet manual for CJ1M..... I have attached this below in the cx format.......thanks again....i am using port 7 Network.cxp

i have a problem that now the port doesnt close after the send execution has been made....... i dont know why the port wont close but the actuyal info has been sent....

thanks for that.......will give that a try and see how it goes...

thanks for that Valerio....just a question, can the serve name (top left hand box, in this case CPU) be called what ever you want or what? thanks again.......... also..........what is boards referring to?? I mean PLC side or PC side? so confused...

This is all very new to me.i need help as i am trying to communicate to omron CJ1M PLC's on an ethernet using cx-programmer. Basically, i just want to run a simple ladder logic on one PLC which then communicates to the next PLC to excute its ladder logic. I dont know how to call the other PLC when i am doing the ladder logic in cx-programmer. Do I need to set up a network in cx-programmer? If so, how do i do that. All help is appreciated very much....

thank you very much for your help. I am using citect version 6.0 and am not very familiar at all with how to communicate them as you can see. i will have more questions as i am just scratching the surface.....thank you again

Is there anyone that can help me with getting and OMRON CJ1M PLC to communicate with Citect SCADA system using serial port? I am very new to this and cant find this specific model of PLC as an I/O device and also I dont know how to find out the addressing of the PLC to create the tags for the SCADA system.Can I use a similar model on SCADA that will allow me to access the PLC? Much help is need, so any input would be very very much appreciated. Thanks.
