Yeah i haven't used them in years either, i thought it was ~$600, but I still think its a solid turn key solution to offer up.
I know there are other options similar but I have only used them before and know they were reliable.

VPN is a software used to establish secure connections between two computers.
I HIGHLY recommend buying a commercial solution, as setting up a proper secure VPN may require some IT knowledge and insecure setup would put your systems at risk.
Reach out to your PLC supplier and ask what systems they have.
EWON is one example of these systems, the hardware installs in your machine, and they have a website based service that will access all of your connected systems

For a ~$1000 it gets you a secure solution.

I would recommend getting EWON or similar industrial VPN device. These are dedicated VPN systems for your exact purpose.

I have not used that HMI brand before, but Modbus setup on the MB91 is pretty easy.
It will show up as an intelligent function module and have several setting windows.Switch settings is for IP setup and pointing device assignment to the user settings
Modbus device assignment tab will be how you set up blocks of addresses to be shared by the HMI and PLC -
you can pull the file last modified date from the pc itself. depending how your system is setup, you might find some previous files info under the right-click menu.

4 hours ago, madhan said:No it is not working I have seen a post that says if we remove the CPU battery and power it down for a day then it will go it is factory state even tried this method but no Luck
just asking is there any firmware update or procedure do a full factory reset for this CPU
I dont have spare CPU better go for service I think
How about an ethernet card, do you have a spare QJ71E71-100 laying around?
-
Any luck?
Do you have a spare CPU that you can load up the program and trial?

Chelton might be on to something . that should not be FFFFFFFFFFFFF
just another thought.. when you wrote those ethernet settings, did you do a hard reset? [ Hold run swtich to left until rebooted ]

I use d link hub switch , yes there are devices which I mentioned the other two plc, which are same model are connected to the same hub which can be communicated normally.
my cables are staright through .
try to take a ethernet cable from a known good PLC connection and connect it to the troublesome one. Could be a bad port in the switch.
I dont see anything in the configuration that looks wrong.
Im pretty sure the crossover thing is taken care by the ethernet port on the PC.. unless your PC is pretty old
-
are you connected to wifi ? It might be trying to ping over your active internet connected device instead of the ethernet port.
And check your Ethernet cables to/from that hub. A bad cable is a great way to beat your head against a wall for a few hours.

OOOOOO
your rectangle was just a shape and not a lamp so it was drawing it behind your lamp to try and be helpful.

Shift+Enter will bring up the "Modify Value" dialog box.

I can't be certain, but i think these would fit. https://www.automationdirect.com/adc/shopping/catalog/hmi_(human_machine_interface)/graphical_hmi_devices/hmi_accessories/ea-mg-bz2-brk

Somehow i never knew about THS option. Good to know!

If you can make due with 4 voltage level triggers, this might work for you.
-
you can also uncheck the comments from your write dialog. Often times that will save tons of space.

try to reformat the USB drive and start fresh.
I have one flash drive that always tells me to repair or fix but i just ignore it.

When you do a read / write select "Device Data" This will backup any data that is setup under 'Detail' option.

Im trying to picture it, but what exactly do you want the final string to be?
Currently it looks like this:
R10700 2 0
R10701 . j
R10702 o b
What your describing sounds something like this:
R10700 [ ] 2 (thats a blank space)
R10701 0 .
R10702 j o
R10703 b
In which case just adjust your $MOV to be " 20.job" then AND H00FF With the D10700

One thing I had discovered was using a built in port, with a heavy load process, and running several ethernet connections to trace database, HMIs, other PLC etc.. was when monitoring the code, it would overwhelm the built in port and shut down connections.
We switched the external traffic to a -100 card, and all communication issues were resolved.

OOOOOOOO I didn't realize the 00h was required, i thought it was showing that as a place holder like a string did not need to fill both Bytes.

I am trying to set up a string compare [ $= "Text" D### ] .
But it's not passing when it should. So i tried pushing the string to a place holder register [ $= D###1 D##2 ], but its still not matching,
but when i just do a double compare [ d= D##1 D##2 ] it passes.
How is my string failing but the numbers obviously match?
Struggling to get picture to attach. Please see here for example.

That's great!
What was the missing detail that got the connection to work? [ Posting the answer might help others who find this thread in the future ]
