@Mitsu: thanks for your nice description! I've took my time to print the manual, a lot easier than switching monitors. And got the writing to the Enet module working. I can read the data with my E150 hmi in the Enet, so that must be working. Only the sending is a challenge :) every day i'm getting closer.........

1) Id didn't ask for a complete program, just one simple example of how it should be programmed....... i just can't figure it out because the Manual instructions do not work with the FX3G plc 2) I can make my own program, just don't understand the coding from/to because i cannot seem to read the Dataregister from plc1 with plc2. 3) My technical English is not that good, so most of the technical words are very difficult to understand 4) That is a piont i am now. Make my an offer :P ...... 5) thats correct, we are using Mitsubishi PLC for over 15 years now, but never in a modbus or other kind of network. The standard programming is very simple and we never have used these functions 6) Like point 5 and i'm a service engineer with barriers/speedgates. I've made our own program to let these products work (nothing to it) 7) See point 6. 8) I agree, when people log into this Forum you expect they know something. But before i went to this forum if tried and tried for over 2 weeks, but noting seem to work. Thats who i am, first try myself build a test location. The project in our factory is running now with two siemens Logo, two glasfiber converters, and everything works ....... but i don't like the panels from siemens and do like the Mitsubishi so a touchscreen HMI panel is added when i get it to work with the FX3G I will thank all of you to try to help me figure it out on my own. But like Kaare_t said, if you do not want to help me just do not aswer like i don't know anything.

Thank you, you are absoluly right........ i really don't know anything. Like i said, it's completely new to me this kind of programming and i was hoping to get some help here. You seem to know, so why could you give me an example to get this started by one simple example? I've tried to figure out the manual but i just don't understand how the dataregister can be read/send by the second PLC. I configured my E150 hmi to read the dataregisters which are written by the MOV instruction, and they are written...... Maar jullie kunnen wel een slotje hangen op dit topic, kom hier helaas niet verder mee. Sorry voor de overlast. Groeten, Harold

The above sentence i do not understand. Sorry, but i've read those instuctions deep in to the night, made a test program but still nothing happent. Like i said, it's completely new to me in the Mitsubishi. I'm used to a simple ladder programming i had never had to use the FROM/TO function. It very difficult for me to understand how to program this function. All the example ladders don't work !! Sending/receiving programs don't work too. I'm very lost in this, thats why i've asked for a simple example to get me started...... The BFM on the FX3G i cannot find........ I took the PLC's to my house and try to get it started So for example i like to MOVE X0 from PLC1 to PLC2: PLC1 |---|x0|---[TO K0 K0 D1 K1]------| |---------------------------[END]----| K0 = both modules on the right side are modul 0 D1 = PLC2 ? K1 = ? PLC2 |---|?|--[FROM K0 K0 D0 K1]---| |--------------------------[END]-----| ? = input from PLC1 (don't know what to fill in here) K0 = both modules on the right side are modul 0 D0 = PLC1 K1 = ?

Thats my problem to mr Crossbow, al the programs are for the FX3U PLC and they don't work with the FX3G PLC. The "word" programming is not my thing. But often if i have an example i can make my own program. This program doesn't work with the FX3G the Ux/G.... is not supported, converting the program to FX3G doesn't work. Thx anyway

I've changed the Mitsubishi FX3G PLC's to Siemens LOGO's 0BA7 for now. I've looked day and night for an example to get me going with the FX3G's but nothing seems to work. There is even no answer from my Mitsubishi dealer. All i wanted is a simple input X1 from PLC-1 to turn on an output Y0 in PLC-2, i tought i could make it work but it's just to difficult for me obvious. :( That was the first thing i changed to set the IP address by FX Configurator-EN, and this was the only thing that i could get started, the function blocks f78 and f79 (from/to) i just don't get it what they do in the program....... the example program does not even work!! grrrrrr

dang, thx for the info! I will try that tomorrow. But i cannot see the connetion to the IP address in the PDF files, this is a real puzzle to me because there is nothing i could find about it. I have to setup the PLC's in master/slave to get the FROM/TO to work, but this doesn't work. The M coding is different then all the examples i could find.

Hello there, Here are the requested files click here It seems that the FX3G doesnot support the Ux function.

Just tried to load the program into the FX3G but is doesn't work. I had made it under the FX3U PLC protocol and could make the Ladder, i converted the program to the FX3G PLC protocol and GX-Developer gives me an error. I've tried to build a new program from the ground up for the FX3G PLC protocol but the U0 of U1\ function cannot be used !! When i tried to load it into my old FX3U PLC (with a broken output relay) there is no problem with the program. I just don't understand what is wrong here.

Thx for the reply's this is my "project" now click here I'm of to work. Will try the coding mentioned U1=>U0 but the steps won't work but maybe because of that problem. The N:N networking i've read that too, but it seems only to be working by the ADP unit, i can try though :)

I know about the LOGO and the Alpha, it's more like a programmable relay :) 1: there is a switch between them, and i can access both via the network 2: see point one 3: IP adresses are given PLC one 192.168.0.100 and PLC two is 192.168.0.110 4: the photo is not relevant anymore because it did not work. There is nothing on the left, only the FX3U-enet on the right (both modules have address 0 in FX configurator-EN) The settings for the FX3U-enet moduls were made by FX configurator-EN. I found a connection program for the PLC connection and used that to see if there was any connection between them, and it worked. So the FX3U-enet modules are setup, but i do not understand how i can get a output on PLC one to set a "merker" in PLC two. I found in "GX works 2" the code for the IP address and i know how to split them in binarycode, but when i read the program from the PLC with GX-developer i cannot find the IP-address. Because the functions that are used i normally don't use.

The FX3U-ENET module is the one i'm using, because i will have to use a HMI in the near future.

Read it tried it, does not work with the FX3G's Only thing i get to communicate is the FX3U-ENET module. Many commands from the FX3U PLC are different for the FX3G PLC there for i stil get a ladder fault if i try to set the values from the FX3U PLC in to the FX3G PLC ...... even on the mitsubishi site there is no much info over the newer FX3G PLC. See attached picture....... that one is for a FX3U Please help click here for bigger picture

Hello, i'm using "ladder" and both GX works2 or GX Develloper. Bought the software last week so i'm very new to it. First i had medoc FX programming software but this one is not useable because of the new functions. I hope this helps to help me. Thx

Hello there, I've looked all over the forum for my answer but cannot find it. Maybe someone here can help me out. I've got two FX3G with ethernet modules, they should talk to eachother but there must be a setting problem. To explane what it should do: The program in one PLC makes an output that becomes an input in the other PLC and this must work both ways. In the instructionmanual i've found the live connection with the connectiontest and timeout, this works. But i just can't figureout how to set a output to send to the other PLC. I hope someone can help me out here. Thx
