  1. NX1P

    If you need to send pulses to the drive then you will require an NX-PGxxx module. The motion startup guide is for using EtherCAT motion. This would be the preferred method but you will need EtherCAT drives. I generally would not recommend Omron's older platform but the CP1L series will do high speed input and output without the use of additional modules. 
  2. NX1P2 SktTCPConnect

    _sSOCKET_ADDRESS is a pre-defined Structure in Sysmac Studio. Here are the elements of the structure: There is syntax to populate the Initial Value field but I find it easier to do it in PLC code.
  3. Servo parameter backup

    The Omron EtherCAT drive parameters are backed up with the project in Sysmac Studio. Parameters that are not set to default will show in violet. To upload, download and compare, you'll have to right click on the EtherCAT NodeX and go Online.
  4. Problem opening a NT20 screen project

    Jay Anthony knew these screens very well. I would read his comments carefully. Is it possible to get your customer to check and/or change the mode on the screen then upload again?
  5. Thank you kckku! So it is in the manual. For the record, this chart can be found in section A-5-3 of V118-E1-19 NA-Series Software User's Manual.
  6. The hardware OS version is associated with a project version. I don't know where to find this information without installing it first. I have a screen on my bench. My project version is 1.13 and it installs OS version 8.1.0 to the screen.
  7. This is the same cable as your other post:  https://forums.mrplc.com/index.php?/topic/40710-help-for-cx-programmer-connection-to-a-c200h-cpu21-plc/ This one would be the 9 pin to 9 pin on page 1.
  8. Omron C60K help

    Omron's KEEP instruction has been the same through their generations of PLCs. It is a latch. When the top leg is tuned on, the KEEP instruction will latch the output on, even if the top leg turns back off. The bottom leg will unlatch it (or turn it off). With the PRO15 programmer, you wouldn't need LSS or Syswin although any of those options will work for the C60K. You may have a hard time getting the software to work on today's Windows PC. You would also need to purchase a Host Link module for communication. They program isn't very large so using the PRO15 is a good option since you have all the parts. It is a bit cumbersome by today's standards but will work. Starting from scratch, I would replace it with a CP1L. CX Programmer is the software package and it is up to date and only requires a USB connection for programming.
  9. Digital sealing

    Thanks for posting the solution. This has been asked before.
  10. The adaptor that Bob refers to is a PRO-CON BASE part number BP001.  https://www.ebay.com/itm/Omron-C200H-BP001-Pro-Con-Base-/124570147226  
  11. PLC_omron_cx_programmer

    The BCNT will only give you the information in rung 3.  I would like to help right now but I don't completely understand the FBC and DDT instructions in AB. I would focus on re-writing the alarm section. It's appears to be typical alarm code where it is scrolling through all active alarms on the HMI. I'll see if I have a good simple example. In the meantime you can start here:  https://www.google.com/search?q=omron+scroll+alarm+site%3Amrplc.com&rlz=1C1GCEA_enUS818US818&ei=omQSYYfSCNuttQa83JBI&oq=omron+scroll+alarm+site%3Amrplc.com&gs_lcp=Cgdnd3Mtd2l6EAM6BwgAEEcQsANKBAhBGABQ44ADWKuIA2DkjQNoAXACeACAATKIAYwCkgEBN5gBAKABAcgBBsABAQ&sclient=gws-wiz&ved=0ahUKEwiHq6zArqbyAhXbVs0KHTwuBAkQ4dUDCA4&uact=5 Maybe someone else will help us out.
  12. PLC_omron_cx_programmer

    FBC:  You'll have a hard time finding a like-for-like instruction for this. The closest I've found is the BCNT (Bit Counter), however this will return the number of bits that are on. FBC returns the Bit Position Number. You'll have to determine what it is actually doing in your program.  FLL:  BSET (Block Set) COP:  MOV (Note:  AB MOV will convert a value from one data type to another. CJ2 will not convert. This is important if you have already used MOV for MOV.) DDT:  Works like FBC only it will change the value to match the source. Again, you'll have to determine what your program is doing with it. GSV:  You'll need to know what System Value this instruction is getting. CJ2 System Values are retrieved differently.  Concerning the Data Types, AB data type is pre determined in the Data Tables. Math instructions will be performed on them according to the data type. In the CJ2, you will have to choose the correct instruction. Example, (+ Add Integer), (+L Add Long Integer), (+F Add Floating Point). 
  13. How to scan Ethernet/IP network?

    Assuming the HMI is an NS, you can touch two corners of the screen to bring up the system menu. From here you can navigate to the communications settings to get the HMI address and the HOST (PLC) address. I do the same for other manufacturers when it's possible.
  14. SLC5/03 - FTV

    These cables will not work.  The easiest option is to use the serial port (DF1) if it is available. You can purchase this cable or build it yourself. To use the RJ45 port (DH485), you'll need to purchase a PanelView Plus with a DH485 module. If you are replacing an old panel, have a look at this document. https://literature.rockwellautomation.com/idc/groups/literature/documents/ap/2711p-ap005_-en-p.pdf  
  15. SLC5/03 - FTV

    My mistake on the above link. You are correct.  PanelView Plus 6 can support DH485. Serial is still the easiest and least expensive method. https://literature.rockwellautomation.com/idc/groups/literature/documents/ap/2711p-ap006_-en-p.pdf  
  16. omron nt2s and ntxs-nt2st software

    NT2S does not use NTST. The software was a separate download. This LCD display is very, very old and I wouldn't expect the software to work on anything newer than Win XP.  You should consider replacing it with an Omron NV series. They are inexpensive and NV Designer comes with CX One.
  17. OMRON NJ/NX PLC to PLC Over Internet

    I have asked the forum moderators to see if they can restore the file from this post:  https://forums.mrplc.com/index.php?/topic/28751-plc-plc-via-internet/ This looks like the information you are looking for.
  18. EEPROM Error

    I have not used the initialize feature but have you tried to right click on Node1: R88D-1S... and click "Online"? You show that you went online with the PLC but you must also go online with the drive. Maybe? I know that you must do this to change drive parameters.
  19. Have you tried the 1S library above? You could program it to reset by a button (or HMI button) and not have to connect Sysmac Studio.
  20. OMRON NJ/NX PLC to PLC Over Internet

    https://www.ewon.biz/products/cosy https://www.tosibox.com/product/lock500/ VPN is by far the easiest method. If you have a PC with Sysmac Studio installed, you can use Teamviewer. I haven't tried this but here is a link from MyOmron. https://www.myomron.com/modules/KB/file_d.php?id=743  
  21. multifunction button NA5

    https://www.support-omron.fr/logiciels/sysmac_studio/iag.php?ref=sysmac_studio There is a Buttons Collection. I haven't tried any of these.
  22. multifunction button NA5

    I'm afraid I'm not much help but I will share your pain as I have encountered the same problem. I'm sure this is possible if create a custom control. I've been interested in doing this myself but I haven't found the time. There is a French site that has shared IAGs. I don't have the link but I've seen it in these forums.
  23. I would do it this way anyway. In fact, I would transfer all the data types in this manner. This way you could transfer the entire block of data with one instruction. (or two if you are reading and writing). Both platforms are capable of custom data types so you could resolve them in PLC code easily. 
  24. CP1L PLC network communication error

    What is the full part number of the PLC? Does the PLC have an Ethernet module? If so, what is the part number? Did you place the PLC in to Program Mode first?
