Please let us know the details about your bar-code scanner. I believe your bar-code scanner uses serial commands over RS232. In this case you can use CS1W-CN118 (cable convert mini-peripheral port to an RS-232C port) to communicate with the device. But still you have to read user manual of the bar-code scanner to identify serial commands.

Has anyone tried to connect absolute encoder with OMRON CP1E PLC, This is the first time I'm going to try this so please advice me on, 1. the connection diagram 2. PLC settings 3. Which instruction has to use for read the encoder value. This information is very valuable for me before purchase anything.

hi, This is the first time im going to use EJ1N-HFU-ETN Ethernet to serial gateway. can enybody explain me how this device going to power up (where i have to give the operating voltage?). before I purchase anything I would like to have your valuable advice. Thanks & Regards, Chinthana

Thank you Jay. I think it taking necessarily power from the end unit. - Chinthana

According to the instruction help if you wants to send data from "PLC" to "Computer" you have to use Hostlink. But I think if this is about monitoring (Reading/Writing) PLC memory areas using Computer you can do this easily by using OPC Server. Ex. Kepware

Thank you very much.. this is exactly wat i want...

Hi, I'm looking for W114 SYSMAC NET Link operations manual. I tried to find it in internet but still no luck. I will appreciate if some one can give me this manual as it very important to me. Thanks, Chinthana

Hi, Recipe values are stored in PLC "D" Memory area so Backup and restore the PLC memory also. If you need any help on backup memory please come back... Regards, Chinthana

Yes, The cable need two drivers in order to work (OMRON USB Device and Serial Communication Port). If the drivers are missing for the com port you should be able to see it as unknown device in device manager with yellow color. So both drivers are included in the drivers folder and update the drivers for the unknown device by showing drivers folder. Regards, Chinthana

My Friend, I assume you want to connect CJ1M-CPU11 with CX-Programmer. Use Cables : CS1W-CN226 + CS1W-CIF31 To connect PLC peripheral port to USB port in PC. Install attached USB drivers for CS1W-CIF31. If you are using Virtual Machine install drivers for both Host machine and virtual machine.

Dear Friends, We have one Plasma cutting machine which has an OMRON Trajexia Motion controller. Some times Trajexia motion controller program memory getting corrupted. So every time I'm reprogram the motion controller and after two three weeks it is getting corrupted so any solution to avoid this. Thank You, Chinthana

Dear All, I have a problem with communicating E5CC Temperature controller with OMRON NQ series HMI. Communication not possible to established. Following settings I made in E5CC temperature controller Communication mode: Modbus Comm. Speed : 9.6kbs Node No: 1 Following settings I made in NQ5-SQ000-B HMI ========================================= Port : Com1 Protocol: Modbus RTU Master (NQ as master) Comm. Speed: 9.6Kbs Data bits:7 Stop bits:2 Flow control:none Model:16 words Default communication register : 50 (Holding registers) Communication cable also fine. Here I attached the NQ program file with this. NQ_Modbus_E5CC.zip

Hi Nick, I'm using CQM1-CIF02 + third party RS232 -> USB with my laptop it woks for me fabulously. OS : Win7 x64bin Home Premium CX Programmer Version: 9.03 I think you have a problem with your USB converter cable. - Chinthana

3G3JX Supports Modbus communication. So you can use PC RS232 serial port and Protocol converter (RS232 <--> Modbus). For more information http://www.renuelectronics.com/gwy-00.htm

Thanks in advance, Please help me on this. HMI Part NO : NT31-ST123B-EV3 I tried to upload the application program from above mentioned HMI. I opened the “NT-Series Support Tool” and set the communication settings first. Then I pressed the Upload Application button from the menu bar of the support tool. But Support tool generates an error message “Font inside HMI and support tool is different do you want to continue” with OK and NO buttons. I pressed OK button for Continue. Since I already put the HMI in Transfer mode It connected with the HMI and started to upload the program showing the progress of uploaded data in progress bar. After reaching 100% it gave a message “Transfer complete” with OK button. When I pressed the OK button it tried to open the uploaded application but it gave an error message “Error has occurred; cannot complete operation. Please quite now.” With OK button when I pressed OK button it gave an another error message “NT-Series Support tool encountered a unrecoverable error. You are advice to save existing application and restart NT-Series Support tool”. So I closed the Support tool and I tried again but same thing happen. Then I opened NT Transfer utility software and I uploaded the Application and save it as “Prg.mmi” . After that again I tried to open this “prg.mmi” file using NT-Series Support tool but it giving the same error messages as I mentioned above. So please advise me on this issue. - Chinthana

I tried to upload program using NTST 4.1 I triied to open the mmi file using NTST 4.8

Hi all, I have one machine with OMRON Trajexia Motion Controller and OMRON NS series HMI According to the Machine operator first HMI lost the communication with Trajexia and after while they try to fix the problem they got erased the HMI project data. After that I downloaded the HMI program I got from machine manufacturer. After that I restart the system but HMI is not communicating with Trajexia controller. Following steps I took for troubleshoot the system. 1. Before download HMI program HMI give the error message that HMI project data is empty. 2. After download the HMI program that error message cleared and HMI giving “Connecting ..” message on the screen continuously 3. I tried with following communication settings with HMI comport A, a. Hostlink with com. Speeds 9600 and 19200 Result: It is not communicating b. NT Link(1:1) Result: It is showing HMI start-up screen but after some time delay it is giving communication time-out error with same host. c. NT Link(1:N) Result: It is showing HMI start-up screen but after some time delay it is giving communication time-out error with same host. 4. I check the cable connectivity between HMI and Trajexia it is good. 5. In the trajexia module it is not showing any error code or error LED indication. Following details are about trajexia module. a. Normal start-up showing the IP address of the unit and Subnet mask three times. b. After start-up it showing “OFF” in the display c. RUN LED is lit (Continuously) d. Servo drives not showing any error (READY LED Lit) Please advice me on this!

I tried to connect using Trajexia tools with the controller. I used the IP: 192.168.0.250 Subnet Mask:255.255.255.0 Port:23 I ping the IP address for test the communication between Trajexia and my computer. Communication is ok. But when I try to connect with Trajexia tools it is giving error "Unrecognized controller @ Enet0"

For PLC Based System You Can Use an OMRON CJ series PLC (Ex: CJ2H-CPU68-EIP). This PLC is capable of connect 10 (max) Analog input module in the CPU rack. That means with seven 8pt analog input modules (CJ1W-AD081-V1) you can have 54 (8*7) analog points. The PLC have a inbuilt Ethernet port and you can directly connect the PLC with a computer. For data logging and monitoring you can develop your application using OMRON CX-Supervisor software (VBScripts). Since you have 4 - 20mA current input signals you can have much distance between sensor and PLC Click here for More Info For Distributed IO system OMRON CelciuXº is a multi loop modular type temperature controller system which can directly communicate with a PLC or a computer. using CX-Supervisor software you can develop the data logging application. Click here for More Info Hope this information will help you.

It is possible to get CX-Designer 30day trial version from OMRON local representative. Note: CX-ONE is a software package that includes CX-Designer also. ~GudLuck
