My apologies, I misread the details. It is in fact a C200HG CPU43 - from what you've said above this one has an RS232 serial port yes? -
The model is a C200HG CPU53, which, as you have said above will then require the use of the CPM1-CIF01 adapter. I have done a quick search on this model, but all the documentation refers to is for the CPM1 PLC, and likewise I can find no reference to the CPM1-CIF01 in the C200 manuals! Now I'm more confused! Any further advice is welcome Regards -
New to Omron so please forgive the ignorance! I am booked to do some fault finding on a machine containing an Omron C200HG plc, need to make sure I've got everything before going to site! I have a copy of CX programmer and a serial lead I used on an old omron CVM1 plc. Am I correct in thinking that the C200HG also has a serial port or am I in need of any special interface adapters? Regards -
You can connect any of the Mitsubishi (Beijers) touchscreens (E615 or E910) to the RS422 port of the processor. The older GOT terminals can use this rs422 port also, and I believe that some of the GOT terminals offer an interface direct to the backplane expansion port -
The next thing I would suggest would either be: Completely clear the CPU memory and download the program again, possible corruption of memory areas? maybe unlikely but a low cost option Replace the backplane, if there is a fault on the backplane this could throw up a hardware fault Replace the CPU, if all else has drawn a blank, could be the only option left. BTW, have you spoken to your local Mitsubishi tech support yet? Have they had any ideas? -
From the GX Developer Help: Error code list[Error code 3101] Error code(SD0) 3101 Error message LINK PARA. ERROR Common information(SD5-15) File name/ drive name Individual information(SD16-26) Parameter number LED status(RUN) Off LED status(ERROR) Flicker PLC operating state Stop Diagnostics timing At power ON/Reset/, STOP -> RUN Error description & cause (1) The link refresh range exceeded the file register capacity. (2) When the station number of the MELSECNET/H module is 0, the inter-PLC network parameter setting has been made. (3) When the station number of the MELSECNET/H module is other than 0, the remote master parameter setting has been made. (4) The network No. specified by a parameter is different from that of the actually mounted network. (5) The head I/O No. specified by a parameter is different from that of the actually mounted I/O unit. (6) The network class specified by a parameter is different from that of the actually mounted network. (7) The network refresh parameter of the MELSECNET/H, MELSECNET/10 is out of the specified area. Corrective action (1) Change the file register file for the one that enables entire range refresh. (2) Correct the type or station number of the MELSECNET/H module in the parameter to meet the used system. (3) Check the network parameters and mounting status, and if they differ, match the network parameters and mounting status. If any network parameter has been corrected, write it to the CPU module. (4) Confirm the setting of the number of extension stages of the extension base units. (5) Check the connection status of the extension base units and connectors. When a display device is connected to the main base unit or extension base unit, check the connection status. (6) If the error occurs after the above checks 1) to 3) have been made, it suggests a hardware fault. Therefore, change the faulty module. Alternatively, contact your nearest Mitsubishi representative. You say that you have checked the refresh setting of all the other PLC's, have you checked the physical connections of the cards? Next step would be to do as step 6 advises, try a new card.... It may be cheaper to move the suspected faulty card into another PLC and see if the fault follows the card or stays with the CPU -
Another way to do a multistate indicator in RSView 32 is to use a "string" display using an expression i.e. if your_tag = 1 then "State 1 text" else if your_tag = 2 then "State 2 text" else "state 0 text" You can make it change colour by adding animation to the colour of the string using similar expressions -
Can you advise of which Melsec PLC? Fx, A etc? Which registers? M, D or both? There are many manuals posted on this site which may help, i.e. if you are looking for the registers of an Fx PLC, look for the FX programming manual in the downloads section -
It does work..... Same principle, you just need to look a bit further into the numbers.... -
To use transparent mode on the MAC 50 it must be enabled in the HMI project. For this you will need the programming software (yes this is MPP) which I still believe that you have to pay for. If you have the patience, you can program the HMI from the keypad, you do not need the software for this. Make sure that the communication parameters are set the same for the PLC, HMI and transparent mode. Connect to the HMI using the standard CAB5 HMI lead (or make one up) and ensure that transparent mode is selected in GX developer. -
it is in the downloads section http://forums.mrplc.com/index.php?autocom=downloads&showfile=490 -
What type of PV are you using? PV550, 1000 etc? What type of processor? -
Well, this was some time ago. Yes, I did get it sorted, I called in an engineer from Klockner who uploaded the code and printed it off for me. He also left me a copy of the application software for free as it is obsolete, but didn't leave me the expensive and unobtainable comms lead that you need -
Use the TRD function (time read) to move the time values into data registers that you need e.g. ---[TRD D10] This will move the time and date values into D10 thru D16 D8018 Year 00-99 D10+0 Year D8017 Month 01-12 D10+1 Month D8016 Date 01-31 D10+2 Date D8015 Hours 00-23 D10+3 Hours D8014 Minutes 00-59 D10+4 Minutes D8013 Seconds 00-59 D10+5 Seconds D8019 Day 0-6 (Sun-Sat) D10+6 Day Setting the time use time write TWR Chapter 5.14 - real time clock control, in the FX Programming manual II gives further guidance -
For connection of extension racks, ControlNet is the preferred option as the backplane is classed as a "controlNet" backplane. Usual solution is to use a CNB module in each rack and connect with the proprietary cables. There is no limit to the number of racks that you can connect on controlnet, only limit is the number of connections in the processor -

Larry Price list for which country?? -
If you have GX Developer, you can import the old medoc files into GX and print them. Other way is to open the PRN file in notepad and print it -
From my limited experience with Sattcontrols, you may be struggling. If I remember correctly, the Satt's will talk only one external protocol which is "COMLI", and I don't think that Siemens support this protocol. How much data do you want to exchange? If it's just several words or so, you may get away with using an HMI as a data exchange unit. An HMI such as the Mitsubishi / Beijers E100 is a good starting point, it is very cheap and has two serial ports which you can do data exchange through, use one port on the COMLI protocol and the other on the SIMATIC protocol -
The programming software you need is Melsed Medoc version 3.11, the other versions don't seem to include the K series Manuals can be found on t'internet, I had a quick look at www.meau.com and found plenty http://www.meau.com/eprise/main/sites/publ...070&ManualType= -
Heres one I did some time ago as a test examle, pretty basic but it did the job! Apologies for the lack of comments! GSM.RSS -
The K Series CPU has been obsolete for many years now (in europe) The one K series that we have, I had to get Mitsubishi Electric out to site as there is only one inteface adapter available in the UK and that belongs to Mitsubishi. My advice is that you contact your local Mitsubishi office for help... -
I have a modification to do to an existing AB system. There are approx 10 PLCs (CLX and SLC) connected on a DH+ network, which are communicating with each other and a top end SCADA system which communicates with all of them (again using the DH+ network) I have to add another PLC which is designed to collect alarm data from all of the PLC's, again using the DH+ network Is there any methods, or software available which can analyse the traffic on the DH+ network to ensure that there is enough space for me to add these 20+ extra message instructions? The last thing I want to do is cause the network to fail Regards -
The ethernet card needs to be considered as a Melsecnet card, i.e. the station number, network number and group number are important for it to communicate with a GX Developer connection correctly. You must set up the card to a particular station number e.g. 1 When you do the transfer setup of your PC you must give yourself a "Melsecnet" station number in the PC side I/F which is unique to your network, in this instance you could use "2"
