  1. I'm having Allen Bradley PLC communication issue to a shared remote Rack. The Remote rack en2t card seems to reset. The Network path to it PLC to EN2t to N-tron switch to (Dell Managed Switch) to fiber converter to fiber to fiber converter to n-tron to remote en2t card I've found that when I replace the Dell Managed switch with a generic link sys switch. My I/0 OK Status light on the PLC will only blink 2 times a day compared to the Dell N3048 switch which will cause the status light to blink >500 times a day. I have fault code that runs in the PLC to determine what's causing the I/O fault and it Always points to the same remote rack. I've swapped fiber converters patch cables n trons en2t cards nothing effect it except the managed switch replacement...I haven't replaced the physical remote rack yet, cause I'm having trouble justifying it, since I get such a dramatic change when swapping the switch.     Anybody have any thought or ideas please provide...

  5. Hi guys! Can anybody help me? I have an existing controlnet network. How can I connected a new module? Like an 1794 IB16. What should I need to do after I connected the new module? One more question: What's the difference if I do not connected the new module right after the last module, but I connected between already existing module. Then what should I need to configure. If anybody want to help, please write like step by step. I'm a beginner, but I want to imporve myself. Thank you for your help. I almost forget, I need to work with Allen-Bradley PLC, and I have RSLogix 5000 software.

  7. Leuze MSI430 Safety PLC help??

    Hi all, My Task: To control write to registers to my MSI430 safety PLC from Leuze Electronic using a HMI as a master. Protocol: Modbus TCP MSI430 (Modbus TCP - server/slave) Generic HMI (Modbus TCP - client/master) I'm reading Okay from the Register address 401101-40110 But I'm not able to write to the MSI PLC to address 402101-402109 Please see the attached images for gateway description for the device. Please advice/guide on how this could be done. I have tried using MBPoll and it says Illegal Data Address. Kind Regards NarkO Please find the below link for the manual   
  8. HI, I HAVE FX5UCPU connected to other devices through built in RS485 port , i have gone through ADPRW instruction .To configure Slave devices like other third party controller , is there any special instruction required. i need few sample programs for modbus data transfer. 
  9. Modbus/TCP PN communication

    Hello, I'm trying to make communication between a 315-2 PN/DP and MSA Gasgard XL. I want to read out 40010, and 40020 from GasGard, it works sometimes, but most of time the connection does'nt  build up.  The parameters i using are: Start address: 9 Lenght: 10 Recv_Time: 5s Conn_Time: 5S I did playing with Recv and Conn Time and it effected the rate of succesful connections, but it still drops too often. Also i tried to read only 9 and 19, but then it didn't read 19. Anyone knows how could i optimize the connection? Thanks  
  10. I'm looking at project with an OMRON NJ-101.  I was planning on using Modbus TCP/IP from the PLC to talk to a MOXA gateway (MB3170) which would then talk to about 7 different slaves over RS-485.  Looking at detail at the blocks that are supplied by OMRON (MTCP_NJ V1.3, available from https://www.myomron.com/index.php?action=kb&article=1245), I noticed that it doesn't send the slave ID, which will mean that it won't be able to talk to different slave ids through the one IP Address. I had a look through the actual code and it sends "FF" in place of the slave id.  In particular I was looking at the "MTCP_Client_Fn03" block. Is there another way to get the NJ101 to talk the full MODBUS TCP/IP protocol? Is it possible to edit the blocks provided by OMRON?  It seems to me that they are locked down. If I could edit it I could just add the functionality Thanks for your help in advance.
  11. Hello guys, i want to connect my CP1e-N30DT to modbus device like weighing scale, but i try to searching modbus with RTU but all of them use function block, i dont understand and i think my device cant use a function block.  Can you help me for connect CP1E to modbus device for get a holding register(4xxxx),input register(3xxxx), coil(0xxxx) and input status(1xxxx) with cx programmer? thank you 
  12. Greetings everyone, I have a Proface HMI(LT-4201TM Modular type DIO) connected to a siemens flow transmitter(MAG6000). Communication between these two devices is using modbus. The modbus register that im using to get the data/reading of a totalizer from siemens transmitter are 403022 and 403023. I managed to display the exact totalizer value from siemens transmitter on the Proface HMI screen. But I couldnt get the exact totalizer value at the ladder logic side, the value that i get at the ladder logic side seems like a raw value. For an example, the totalizer's value is 147083(real value), but at the ladder logic side the value for 403022=15598 and 403023=17316.   Can anyone guide me to solve this issue.   Thanks in advance.
  13. HMI and Weighing Indicator

    hallo, i have problem here. i want to connect HMI OMRON NB7W-TW00B to weighing indicator with Modbus RTU rs485. i use this link https://www.myomron.com/index.php?action=kb&article=1538 for wiring diagram for rs485. and the baudrate, databit, parity check and stop bit is same between HMI and weighing indicator. but the output in HMI is "[2] PLC No Response: 00-01-2" i think the problem is my rs485 connection. can you help me? thank you.
  14. Morning Guys, For my latest project I need to read a gas sensor via 485 from a Momentum PLC. I've been through the help files, but they seem to only raise more questions than they answer, they only seem to reference PLC -> PLC comms. I've had a play with the 'MBP_MSTR' & 'OUT_IN_MBUS' function blocks, but i can't seem to get anywhere, Has anyone got any examples of reading in data via 485, or can anyone lead me in the right direction?
  15. Hello, I wanna be sure before I'll spend some money, will I be able to control Turck devices (ie http://pdb2.turck.de/cz/DE/products/000000170000c8000003003a ), from I've found here on forum and on internet it looks to me like it should be possible, but I'm new in field of automatization.   Thanks in advance EDIT: I'm talking about Modbus
  16. 1 slave to multiple masters

    Hello everyone. I got the project where plc Q00UJCPU with the module QJ71MB91 connected to the slave device via 485 channel . This plc takes some values (like current/voltage etc). i dont have access to this plc cause he is on guarantee on another service company. So question is... How to connect to this device as a other plc FX3U via 485ADP-MB (and i think RS command) module in parralel to QPLC already working link? Is this possible without harm QPLC and all the data which he takes?
  17. RS485 Async

    Hey guys I don't have much experience in PLC serial communication and I'm tasked to integrate 6 OP-905 scales with our EATON based control system. The scales are rs485 asynchronous serial communication, my concern is that if the device is not designed to be an RTU then I cannot use modbus. And if that is the case how do I talk to multiple scales using the async protocol. Has anyone done this in a similar platform? 
  18. Operation error

    I am developing an application with fx5u with inverter d700, it fails to send a command to the inverter, only running the application and monitoring the clp does not appear to fail, only when it sends a command. Attached photo of plc configuration and error. Do you have any secrets to doing communication, can I do it with a normal network cable? I'm doing with just one inverter, as the terminator should be at 110 or 330 ohm.    
  19. Hi All, Networking guy here, looking for network experts on a AB PLC (1756-EN3TR/B v217021900) which seems to STOP ARPing for a device after 10 ARP's. The device is purposefully powered down, but when powered up, it can take minutes before the PLC sees it again. The PLC team says only changes in the PLC's logic are made. When an older backup is restored though, I do NOT see the issue somehow. 1) The devices that are powered down are back on the network and reachable within 10 seconds or so (ping). The initial thought was that they were not even on the network, but they are. Just that PLC shows a comms loss. 2) With the 'good code', the PLC, once the device is offine, keeps sending ARPs to find the device. The first one is a directed one, the subsequent ones are broadcasts. These broadcasts keep happening till the device is back online and is able to talk to the PLC again. 1st ARP after comms is lost: 474.423859     Rockwell_cf:a7:6c     Hilscher_2e:ea:08     ARP      60     Who has 192.17.150.208? Tell 192.17.150.30 Next and subsequent ARPs after the first one: 475.423471     Rockwell_cf:a7:6c     Broadcast             ARP      60     Who has 192.17.150.208? Tell 192.17.150.30 These ARPs keep happening every 1 second, till the device is online again. 3) With the bad code, the PLC, once the device is offline, sends only 10 ARP messages total and then stops sending ARPs altogethe . Then it takes 10 minutes* before it sends another one. If the device is backup online by that time, the PLC finds it right away. SO with these 2 different code bases, how is that a low level L2 protocol like ARP is impacted so much. The PLC team tells me that they have no idea and not set anything related to it. My question is where is the ARP network behaviour governed and how to change it? How can older code which supposedly only has changes in logic have different ARP behavior? * The 10 minutes interval might lead people to think it's a ARP timer and most likely it is, but then people usually ask about gratuious ARPS (garp) and I've verified that they make it through from the device to the PLC OK. If the device is offline for say a minute, the PLC mirrored port does indeed see the garps, yet at that point the PLC is no longer ARPing and regardless of that garp, it has to sit out the time till it sends a next ARP till it connects. Thus, I suspect the coming back to life process is governed by the PLC ARPing for it, and not by the detection of a garps. Thanks everyone!  
  20. Hello everyone. I have Omron CJ2M-31 PLC with SCU32 communication unit, and 34 3G3MX2 drives with repeater. I use "Easy to use Modbus RTU Master for CP1L CP1H CJ1 CJ2 CS1" written by our member PMCR (thank you PMCR for sharing your experience). I need to reed VFD status, reset fault, and write the speed. I tried the sample code version 2.12 with a single VFD, but in my test application it works inconsistent. I had got communication in the first place, I could control the drive, but I lost it after program modification and downloading (I did not touch communication part). I was able fix communication only once, and lost it again. I didn't find any correlation between my action and communication presence ( I tested dual port program version). If the communication is present, SCU unit blinks fast, otherwise slow. I have cleaned PLC memory and initialized PLC without any luck. Unfortunately, PMCR is offline. If anyone is proficient with mentioned above program, please advise where to look. Thank you in advance.

  22. CX Supervisor Modbus RTU

    Can CX Supervisor be used as modbus RTU master using RS232/RS485 or USB/RS485 converter to connect it to PLC or panelmeter or other modbus slave units and how? Any example? Thanks in advance Goran
  23. 1.Can anyone say how can i communicate control logix plc with ethernet to serial converter. here i am not having any eds file.
  24. Hi.I would like to tell you about a modbus library I have made and recently released, for Siemens S7-1200 PLC's. I made concept that called Station block which is mapping of registers for one specific modbus rtu device. Station blocks can be made very quickly and can be easily be reused and combined with other station blocks. The library is free under the MIT-license and can be downloaded at github (link bellow). Please check it out, I would like to get some feedback on my work. https://github.com/olab84/rexhip/ An modbus rtu example: #mb_master_ctrl(hardware_id := "Local~CB_1241_(RS485)",                                 baud := 19200, // bps                                                mb_query := #mb_query );  #mb_query(mb_addr := #mb_addr,                                         mode := #mb_query.c.read.input_reg,                       data_addr := 13,                                            data_ptr := #resault_data_1);   #mb_query(mb_addr := #mb_addr,                                       mode := #mb_query.c.write.holding_reg,                       data_addr := 55,                                                  data_ptr := #resault_data_2); // - The library will take care of execute each query, one by one.  //    Add as many queries as need. (There no need of a state machine) // - Queries belonging to one device can be placed inside one FB, //   this FB can later easily be reused.      
  25. Hello all, i'm looking at installing a completely new network for our PLC system, using a ring topology. at the same time i would like to incorporate the IP cameras and VOIP into the same network.  each system is on a different sub net, PLC = x.x.1.x, Cameras= x.x.2.x, VOIP= x.x.3.x estimated camera traffic will be 25 Mbps, PLC 10 Mbps, VOIP no more than 1 Mbps  switches would be capable of 100 Mbps  question: managed or un-managed switches? if it is possible to use un-managed without affecting operations then this would be a massive cost saving    please only comment if you have practical experience implementing this  many thanks Dan
