Hello, I am in a bit of a bind; it's Easter weekend here, I have 4 brand-new NP screens but no software to load them I know the software is included in the price of the screen. Is there a place I can download the software? Thanks

Ok I understand now. LOL. The plc no longer has an error, but i cannot use the comm port still. I'm still trying to determine the problem.

Ok I tried DIP switch 5, it didn't work I backed up the settings with a memory card. I'm not sure how to transfer a clean program along with default plc settings to a memory card: the only options for offline transfer to file are program files, index files, symbols files, and comments.

I'm just wondering if it's at all possible to do a hard reset on a CJ1M CPU unit to initialize memory and reset all default settings without a programming console or CX-programmer? if so, how do I do that (I don't have a peripheral cable and the COM port settings are wrong, so I cannot connect)

For our next project, DeviceNet will be the way to go (I would've liked to have this from the start of this project, however I joined it late in the game) The announcer is approximately 63 ft away from the PLC Since the project is in its final stages, I doubt my boss will want to make major mods as would be required with DeviceNet or the B7A terminals. Ah so many picky things sometimes lol. For the next project, I'll have a lot more say in design and implementation, so I should not run into as many silly control issues as I have with this one. Thanks for your help :) P.S. I called TOA and they told me that they do not have another manual because they do not use the RS-232 function. The "manual" they gave me is it. LOL

I believe there must be another manual as well, and I've been in contact with TOA, however they don't seem to have another. I'll keep looking in to it I realize the binary control is much simpler, but to save on wires, harness pins and PLC outputs, i was investigating the RS-232. It looks though that I'll take this route. Thanks :)

Hi, I have a CJ1M-CPU13 with the following configuration: CPU (with peripheral & RS-232C) | ID211 | ID211 | OC211 | OC211 | OC211 | OC211 | SCU21-V1 (2 rs232C ports) I need to either TXDU instructions to a digital message repeater The digital message repeater is manufactured by TOA Electronics and is model EV-350P (manual --> ev350p_mt1e.pdf) The manual contains little or no information on serial communications protocol, but I did manage to get some unclear instructions from the TOA support techs. (see EV350_protocol.zip) Does anyone have any suggestions on the PLC setup for this? I need to use SCU21 port 2 but that's the only necessity. All other setup such as the start code, end code, start code specifier, end code specifier, etc., is a little confusing, especially because the EV-350P unit manual and support docs are confusing. Any help or suggestion is greatly appreciated. dan

I forgot to assign unique terminal numbers, thanks!

My network config is as follows: CJ1M --- NS-AL002 (DIP Switches 1 and 4 on) --- NS-AL002 (DIP Switch 1 on) --- Touchscreen --- NS-AL002 (DIP Switches 1 and 4 on) --- Touchscreen The communications is wired as per the instructions in V083_E1_06 (NS Touchscreen Setup manual) There is nothing in the documentation about RSA(-) and RSB(+) so I did not wire them. Could this be causing any communication errors? If not, what could be causing communication errors? (note: no high voltage or inductive loads are used in the application)

Thanks very much for your help :)

In the following program file, I have defined some subroutines. When subroutine 80 is enabled, bit 1001.01 and TIM 1000 within subroutine 80 are enabled. Outside of subroutine 80, bit 1001.01 is supposed to enable bit 3000.03 and TIM 1000 is supposed to enable bit 3000.00 My question is: Why do neither 3000.00 or 3000.03 enable outside of the subroutine when the preceding rung conditions are true? Is there a better way to do it? Subroutines.cxp
