Hello. I also have a small problem with 7.5. When i run the program in "preview" it works fine but it dosen't close propperly. It closes but the program still runs in the background. This happens on win XP SP3. Not in Vista. I have chosen to ignore this small bug.

Trye the MOVP_M function instead of MOV_M

Hello. You probobly use the GX IEC Developer for programming. In order to get the 485 MB module to work i belive you also need GX Developer. This because a win socet driver file you need dosen't come with the IEC version for some reason( Mistake from Beijer) You also need to make som changes in your libraries. (Had the same prob. as you) I adwise you to contact Beijer and get support and nessasary files from them. I don't think they will charge you anything for this. You don't need to make any changes in any parameters when you have the right software.

Im not sure about specific and global. Isn't global the error alrms etc.? I have not used your spesific setup, but on other setups you must have power on the slaves cycle the pover on the PLC , and then cycle the power for the slaves. But this probobly waries from module to module depending on what it is. I have used Profibus to control servo. The servo inverters is controled by an MGMR30 witch commuicates over profibus. The MGMR30 can control 6 axes an communicates by SSCNET to the inverters. The inverters parameter is stored in an EEPROM and needs to have its power cycled in order to change. When using this setup i first download the configuration to the PLC cycles it then cycles the power for the MGMR30 and then cycles the power to the inverters.

Hello. Try to switch the power off and on twice. The master dosen't make the changes until the power is cycled.

The online change limit is different from PLC to PLC. Witch kind of PLC are you using? If you want to change the the allowed online program size go to the menue "Extras"- "options" and you will find Online change there. There you can increase the number og steps tranfered online. You also might have to increase the system variables to increase the online change size.

Hello. My opinion is that the Altivar inverter is not a good product. My experiece is not big with Altivar inverters from Telemecanique, but on at least 3 acations i had to replace them with other brands to get rid of problems. The main problem i have experienced is thath they don't manage to deliver enough power to the motor. I have onely used the type witch has 1 phase in and 3 phase out. It seems like Telemecanique classifies their inverters diffrently than most other brands. E.g. an inverter from Telemecanique marked 0,75kW can't run a 0,75 kW motor on max. On 2 cases i replaced with Hitatchi inverters and no problems since. Last time i replaced with Mitsubichi and it's also still running without problems. This is onely my experience and i dont know if it's still so since i stoped using inverters from Telemecanique some years ago. My advice : switch brand, and save money.

Hello. I have a sytem i sell to one customer. FX3UC with RS485 BD card. I use GX IEC Developer I remember the first time i did this i had problems. I got support through Beijer here in Norway. They found out that i also needed GX Developer installed to get the programming to work the BD module uses a winsoc version from GX Developer. Not sure all the things they did but now it works every time. I also got some librarys with ADPRW and MODBUS FX3U Master funktions.

Hello. Im onely familiar with GX IEC Developer, and have used the FIFO funktions several times. With the funktion block LD_GE_M you spesify the number of words you vant the register to use and the start adress. This funktionblocks outputsignal is used to stop writing into the register when its full. Block the input on the FIFWP_M with this signal. Otherwise it will continue to write into the PLCs memory. With the FIFWP_M you write into the register and the data you put in on the "s" input on this block is written into the register, the "d" output is the same adress you used as start adress in the LD_GE_M block. NB! the first word in the register handels the number of positions written into in the register. E.g. If you start the register at D3000. The data in D3000 is the value of positions in the register with data. The data you enterd will be stored in D3001 and up. If you write 3 times the value of D3000=3 and so on. So if you want 10 positions in the register you need to spesify 11 in the LD_GE_M block. When you want to read out of the register you use the AND_LE_M funktion block where you spesify how many positions in this register to read from and witch register e.g. D3000. "s1"= positions and "s2"= register start, and connect the ENO of that block to a FIFRP_M funktionblock. You also need to spesify an adress to write the data to on the "s" input on the FIFRP_M block on the "d" output you spesify the register start e.g. D3000. Thats how its done in the IEC version. By the way FIFO stands for First In First Out. So the first data who is put into the register is the first to be written out. Good luck.

Hello. The induktive switch you refer to is an old NAMUR type. It operates on 8VDC. Link to sensor : http://www.pepperl-fuchs.co.uk/cps/rde/xch...CBA21F-6AB14ACA It's inteded for use in explosion hardious areas. You need a isolated barrier, go to : http://www.pepperl-fuchs.co.uk/cps/rde/xch...ker.htm?force=1 Then it should work.

You can use the IEC Developer 7.01 but you also need GX Developer 8.5 or higher installed. The ADPRW uses the esasysocet for RS485 and this only comes with GX Developer. This is a fault by Mitsubichi and you should get this for free.

Yes it is possible to do this. I would use Modbus if you dont alredy have Profibus. (most used with mitsubichi where i work) Or you can also use an E-panel as an datatransfer if you comunicate on 2 different types of com, an simple option if you need to install a touchpanel in your system. Then the E-Panel can talk to Siemens on MPI/Profibus and Mitsubichi on Ethernet/RS232/Modbus, and transfer data betveen these coms.

You need to set up a virtuel com-port to be able to communicate with this module. Go to www.tibbo.com and find free software. Set up a new com port with this software and use this com to program your PLC. I belive the FX2NC-ENET-ADP only handels UP/Download and monitor. I think you need the COM-ET10-T to be able to communicate direktly over the ethernet.

Well i used the EQ_E Function to compare CN235 with a value in a program to posision a motordriven conveyorbelt, it has 6 posisjons. after stopping at every pos. it returns back to pos. 0 witch is a induktive sensor, and resets C235. I always find it usefull to reset counters that use pulses with a mecanical fixed signal. NB! You will not get an acurate count from a singel puls Incremental rotary encoder.
