It's not problem to set TCP instead of UDP, but as kaare_t wrote, better to use UDP.

Nice to hear that! You are welcome. I spent a lot of time to solve this problem a few years ago

It's not true. Right now i'm connected to the machine with A2SH CPU thrue ethernet.  Eth modul is only 10Mb/s, but everything is woking. Try to use attached POU.  Use it insead of yours. BUT I changed eth port to 5000 (hexa 1388). You have to change it in transfer setup! eth_1.zip eth_1.zip

OK. Try to add this network to your prg.  You have to change i/o  (in my case XB9, YA8, XB0) and head address in TOP commands, (In my case it is hA). This opens channel 1 as UDP on port 256 (h100) for communication.

What port no. do you use? Can you paste pict. of transfer setup of GX IEC?

Hi all. I have problem with programing of GOT 2000 panel GT2510-VTBD. In our company we have GT Designer 3 (Got 2000) version 1.106L H01. When I want to select got type I can only choose GT27** or GT23** (see attached pict.) There is not GT25** type to select. Is there any chance to select GT25** type? Maybe I need later version of gt designer, but I have mitsubishi pack 2015 with newest versions of iQ works. Any advice, pls.

You are right. I upgraded to 1.124 and everything is OK now. Thaks.

Hi. I have problem with char moving (i.e. ABCDEFGH) into any data var. in GX IEC DEVELOPER and A-CPU. In GX Developer it's not problem. $MOV "ABCDEFGH" D100. But I can't find any instruction in GX IEC Developer in structured ladder. With Q-CPU it's easy too, string_mov instruction. I've tried SMOV, ASC instructions, but with no success. Thanks for any advice.

Yes, I want to move static chars. It looks there is only this way. Not very nice, especially, if i have to move about 100 chars. I have to send char string into rs232 printer ant it consist of about 100 chars. Thank you anyway.

It's not working. BMOV "only" transfer source registers into another registers. But i want to mov chars into registers.

Hello, is there a way how to exclude program from "Execution Program" task in GX WORKS 2 without deleting it? GX WORKS 2 automatically deletes selected program from execution program and POU unit as well. In GX IEC Developer - which I've been using previously there was a Task_Pool. If I dind't want main program to execute any subprogram POU I've created I simply deleted this file from Task_pool and it wasn't executable by Main program no more, but it stayed there. Isn't there a similar way how to do this in GX WORKS 2? thanks.

Is it possible to open gx dev project into gx works and convert / upgrade it to structured ladder? CPU is fx3u. I'm really newbie in gx works. I did all my projects in gx iec developer, it means in structured ladder.

OK, I try to explain it. I have GX Developper project. This project was created by somebody from our mother company in GX Developer. We are programing in GX IEC Developer (I realy don't like GX Developer, but don't want to start flame). In our company, we have all softs (GX Developer, IEC developer and GX Works too). I found that GX works2 can open GX developer project so I did it. Another step was converting project (see attachment). After converting I could split project from one main pou into many alone POUs (copy - paste). I realy hate one pou project. This project is very large (more than 13000 steps). Spliting into alone pous was very usefull for me. I know, best option would be to rewrite it to structured ladder, but I have no time to do it. So I have ladder project with several pous, I can move up and down this pous in task, but only thing I miss is what I wrote before.

Hi. Thanks for answer. We are using FX3U CPU and simple project (imported from GX Developer - open other project). In this case, there is not any task. I'm afraid it's not possible on simple project, only on structured project.

Hi. What type of ethernet modul i have to use for communication with A2AS CPU via ethernet. There is two types of moduls for A-series CPU. A1SJ71E71 and A1SJ71QE71. I tried A1SJ71E71, but in the transfer setup i got info message (see attechment) that i have to use QJ71E71 modul. Communicatoin with this modul does not work. Does it means that i have to use A1SJ71QE71 modul? This moduls are not cheap, so i want to be sure. With A1SH CPU ...71E71 eth. modul is working properly. I thought that 71QE71 is only for Q2AS CPU.

I did not know about such a possibility. It sounds good. I'm going to read some manuals. Finally, it's cheaper to go this way then to buy expensive A-series CPU and moduls. Thanks a lot.

You are right, it's not ideal solution, but... it's not easy to completly change A2AS PLC with all moduls (there is about 10 I/O and 3 special moduls on the machine) QnU PLC are smaller and using other type of base unit. Q2AS PLC is for A-series base units, but are using Q-series instructions. Q2AS CPU is something between A ans Q PLC. We have two ror three machines with Q2AS CPU, but without ethernet moduls. I try to order one A1SJ71QE71 ethernet modul and will pray

I did what you wrote and it's working. I found out that I can not only monitor and make online change. I can download program to the PLC too, but without parameters. Only program. A2AS series PLCs are realy not good PLC. In the future I will replace it with Q2AS. Do you have any experiences with this CPU? We have a few pcs in our plant but I've never attempted to remote connect via ethernet to the Q2AS PLC. Probably, I will need 71QE71 eth. modul. Thanks for usefull informations.

I tried to do the same with GX Developer and result is the same. I've got the same message as i post before. Both softs have the same transfer setup. But the same result is, when i change PLC to A3U. I can try it on monday, when i will be at work. Anyway, thank you for trying to help.

I would be very grateful if you give me some advice. I'm using GX IEC Developer. Do you think it's possible to change PLCto any other type and download project to A2AS CPU?
