PP, I tried that Timer that you gave me and it doesnt work for the CS1G, the closest was the CS1G-H. Do you know of a similar timer that would work on my CS1G-CPU42 ? Thanks again for your help. Silentcricket

Thanks for the advice and the timer, it should make programming a little bit easier. If i run into any more problems i'll make sure to ask, thanks for helping out. Silentcricket

Hi, I'm programming a CS1G with CX-pro. 6.0 and had a question or two. I know with allen-b you can have B3 bits, which are internal bits that can be set, or used as a 'fake' bit just to make programming a little easier, i'm wondering if Omron has anything similar. My problem is that i am trying to make a program and i need addresses that i can turn on and off to control timers and such but dont actually want them to turn on and off my outputs. I've been using my output slots that dont have any connections but am running out of open slots. So again, does Omron have anything similar to a B3 bit?? Also, with timers im having a bit of a learning curve here going from AB to Omron. In AB you can set an input to say i I:T4/TT and have that bit turn on only when the timer is timing and then turn off when the timer is done. Again i've looked through the instructions for Omron and can't find something similar to that and was wondering what anyone was using or if this is even possible. I dont want the bit to come on when the timer is done, i only want it to come on when the timer is timing. If anyone can help with any of these questions that would be great. Thanks for your time guys.

Im using the NC213 to control my x-y table, and have 2 R88D-WT01HL servo drivers attached to it. The problem is that any reference manual i can find deals with the R88D-UP versions, or differenet but nothing on the WT01HL that i have. If anyone has any electronic documents that can help, or know where to look that would be really helpful. I would appreciate anything on the R88D-WT01HL servo driver or the C200HW-NC213 position controller as im still fighting with that to make it work. Thanks ahead of time Silentcricket

Thanks for the update guys, i'll see if i can get access to the CS1 version instead of the C200HW version.

ya thanks, i will try doing some reading and let you know how that goes. Thanks for the help beegee

Wow, thats a lot of information at once to absorb, but thanks anyway. One quick question, W397.. thats a manual im assuming, but would it have come with CX-Programmer, or do i need to find it. Sorry for the questions but like i said, im not used to how Omron works, but i am getting the hang of it and thanks again Beegee.

I'm new to programming an Omron CS1G-CPU42. I've worked with Allen-Bradleys micrologic PLC's before, but never Omron. I'm doing a tech-project for school and am using the NC213 position controller, i have 2 R88D-WT01HL Servo Drivers, and they are both wired corretly, and they are connected to 2 servomotors that are attached to sliders (for x and y movement). I have the I/O table setup done and my inputs and outputs work, but i dont know how to start to program the drivers. I'm not sure where to begin, i just need some helpful advice to get them simply moving, and then hopefully i can figure out the rest (hopefully ) Thanks for any advice, and i appreciate the time to help out.
