  1. IEEE-754 Floating Point

    Ramkumar posted a topic in Mitsubishi

    Hi, Is there a simple way to convert hex value of IEEE 754 to real value in gx works 3 Regards, Ramkumar  
  2. Hi everyone, I'm new here. Thank you all in advance for the help you can give me. I have one machine with PLC Omron NJ101-9000, and this is Server in the Modbus communication. In the attachments, you can find the function block I used to communicate with 1 client. This work OK and I don't have problems, but I need to communicate with 2 clients at the same time. This block only admits one connection at a time. How I can connect 2 at a time? If I create 2 of these blocks, does each client need to connect to a different port? Do I need "open" this port in PLC configuration?   Thanks!

  5. Hi. I have this project where we read out data from temp sensors and vaccuum stuff. We use Pfeiffer vaccum cpt 200 for the vaccuum, and we create a frame to send to the modbus unit to pull a value from example '306'. With all the current items we pull data, all the values are only updated every 5 seconds, is there a way to perhaps pull several frame/addresses in one request per device? Current codes we read, some are in sequence of each others, but more has a bit of gap like 00, 02, 306, 307, 398, 330 and so on.    
  6. I am trying to create a simple `Hello World` Modbus TCP/IP program using Twincat3 and virtual PLC (PLC running locally on my computer).   I have set up a LabVIEW Modbus TCP/IP master + slave program (both of which are working see screenshots below).  I can send data between LabVIEW's master and slave programs. And also read the data from Python script (so I know for sure they are all working).  Now I have tried to create a Twincat3 program to set some registers using Beckhoff example What I have tried:  - I have tried changing the ipAddr parameter to: 'localhost', '192.168.88.1', '192.168.88.126'  - Also I have tried the nUnitID set to: 0, 1, 16#FF (16#FF as specified by Beckhoff docs) This is my Beckhoff code:     PROGRAM MAIN     VAR         ipAddr         : STRING(15) := '192.168.88.1'; //Tried also 192.168.88.126 and 192.168.88.1 'localhost'         M0 AT %MB0     : ARRAY [0..3] OF WORD;         nValue         : ARRAY [0..3] OF WORD;         fbWriteRegs : FB_MBWriteRegs;         bWriteRegs     : BOOL;     END_VAR           IF NOT bWriteRegs THEN         nValue[0]                := nValue[0]+1;         nValue[1]                := nValue[1]+1;         nValue[2]                := nValue[2]+1;         nValue[3]                := nValue[3]+1;                  bWriteRegs                 := TRUE;                  fbWriteRegs.sIPAddr     := ipAddr;         fbWriteRegs.nTCPPort     := 502;         fbWriteRegs.nUnitID        := 16#FF;             //Tried setting this to 0,1 and it also and didnt work ...         fbWriteRegs.nQuantity     := 4;         fbWriteRegs.nMBAddr     := 16#3000;         //Tried: 16#3000, 0, 1         fbWriteRegs.cbLength     := SIZEOF(nValue);         fbWriteRegs.pSrcAddr     := ADR(nValue);         fbWriteRegs.tTimeout     := T#5S;         fbWriteRegs                (bExecute:=TRUE);     ELSE                  IF NOT fbWriteRegs.bBUSY THEN             bWriteRegs             :=FALSE;             fbWriteRegs            (bExecute:=FALSE);         END_IF                  fbWriteRegs                (bExecute:=FALSE);     END_IF  What should I change in my code in order to make this example work? Thank you in advance for any support!   Info about LabVIEW programs:  I am using the Modbus TCP Master / Slave examples  The IP address is set to localhost and the port to 502 (which should match the IP address in my Beckhoff code)  I am 100% sure it works because I have also tried connecting to this program via Python script.

  7. Hello, I am using Easymodbus library to Communicate with Modicon TM218 PLC. Reading and Writing of Holding Registers working fine. But coming to writing of single bit in data register i am facing Problem. Need to know how we find coil address of a data register. e.g I have to write bit 1 to MW70.1 address. How we do that. Right now i am reading complete MW70 Register and Manipulating it using bit manipulation techniques and again Writing using Write single Register Function. It's working but some times because of reading problem it writes some garbage values. At that time complete system effecting.    Please provide me any solution. Thanks in Advance. 
  8. Dear All, At the moment, I have project with PLC Delta and HMI Proface. I design HMI GP2500 by GP-PRO/PBIII ( V7.0). I see in List Device PLC of Software  not support PLC Delta.  Can you tell me how do you connect or Software HMI Proface ( Gp2500) support PLC Delta ? Thanks you very much.
  9. Hello, I'd like to ask for a technical confirmation on using MODBUS TCP in a M340 + Fiber Converter Card (BMXNRP0200C) or Switch (ADAM 6521) + Fiber Optic patch cords and cable topology to communicate with a SCADA system. The main objective is to provide a fiber optic connection point inside a control panel because it is located in a area prone to electrical interference. The protocol to be used would be MODBUS TCP. We have two simple topologies in mind but we are not sure if they are feasible. So i'm asking for a little support about it. Considering the attached simplified topologies (Drawing1.jpg), am I able to use MODBUS TCP to communicate a M340 with a SCADA workstation with no problem? I'm not sure if the protocol allows this kind of change on the physical medium like if it was pure Ethernet.    
  10. Hello people! I'm using a NX1P2 controller combined with a CIF105 serial card installed on it. For my project, I get some data that are in ASCII form and I want to keep that form when are extracted in a .csv file. I have established the communication for getting the data but, the problem is that I cannot extract the data in the ASCII form. Data extraction comes in Hex form. I use the NX_SerialRcv instruction for the communication and the AryToString conversion for the data. When using the Watch Tab Page I can display the data in ASCII form but, as far as I understand, this is only for online monitoring. I went through topics here and OMRON manuals for finding any Hex to ASCII conversion instruction but the only info I came across was for CX controllers which cannot be implemented to NX controller. Is there any similar instruction for NX controller or I should create a new Library for the conversion? Any tips and/or a sample would be highly appreciated! Thanks! Man31    

  11. How to enable modbus in mitsubishi plc

    Shubham Shende posted a topic in Mitsubishi

    hello there, I have Mitsubishi FX3G 24m PLc which has an ethernet port for communication port. how to enable Modbus TCP/IP for data collection of sensor values and sending it to a 3rd party. If this has been answered pls link to the thread.
  12. Now I working on omron CP1H PLC, i'm receiving ASCII number from another PLC which is something like this  "#3031 #3030 #3030 #3030" which mean 01000000. How to convert the ascii number to real number or bcd without separate them? I know how to convert them which is using HEX but its turn out the number will separate into this 0100  and 0000.
  13. Hello, Has anyone got an Omron PLC NX1P2-1140DT1 running with Modbus TCP/IP? I tried to reach Schneider several times, but there is "live" or email to discuss or get help, has to go to thru someone from Mexico then he will email to France. All of my attempts was lost, I can establish a "CONNECTION" but I can't READ the Coil - I got the error "Gateway Path Unavailable" (that means  "Used alongside gateways. Basically, this code means the gateway couldn’t allocate an internal path to process the request. Therefore, the gateway could probably be misconfigured or overloaded") My program is based on the MTCP_Client_NJ_E (Revision 2.3 date 23/07/2021 - JP Viskovic from France) I can read the coils using MODBUX Doctor (France) but I can't make work with Etherway. Any advice is welcome. Thanks   MTCP_Client_NJ.slr MTCP_Client_NJ_E.pdf
  14. If this has been asked and answered already, please point me in the right direction. I have a production line that uses Gefran Geflex temperature controllers on a Modbus and Machine Net communication system. The main control panel (MCP) is the master on the Modbus and communicates directly with 3 slave Geflex units (Group Leaders?) which then communicate with the others in that group via a Gefran Machine Net type interface (ribbon cable daisy chained from one unit to the next). The issue is twofold: These temperature controllers are slowly becoming harder to find AND they are a PITA to change out because they have to be put in place and then properly addressed using software on a laptop. This means more downtime waiting for someone who knows how to set these up to get there to do it say on a weekend/middle of the night type situation. (I do like my beauty sleep). I'm looking to replace these units with standard SSRs and control them with a PLC (P-2000 most likely). What I would need to be able to do is interface between the MCP and PLC in some way that the MCP still believes it is controlling 24 units (24 Modbus IDs) and have the PLC receive the reads and writes from the MCP and know which ID it was meant for in order to set the SV and respond with the PV and/or alarm codes as that ID. I hope that all makes sense. Basically I need a way for a PLC to act as if it were 24 separate Modbus slave units. Could I just use a separate HMI next to the MCP? Yes, but there are temperature dependent routines in the main operation of the line (extruder run inhibit, etc.) that requires the information reported back on the Modbus. I've looked into Modbus Gateways but the MGs I've found so far don't seem to be capable of assuming the role of 24 different slaves and interfacing with the PLC in a way that would allow the individual control.  Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
  15. Hi every one. I have strange problem with Modbus communication in Citect 2018. I am communicating to the site switches through Modbus TCP protocol using MODNET driver and reading its sates. I am reading data from Input registers (registers addresses starts from 3x). In default, MODNET driver initializes communication trying conecting to holding register 40001 so I changed initialization in citect.ini to address 30001 because driver didn't want to establish connection because switches don't support holding registers. Now, connection to switches is working but only when page is open where I showing data from them. When I change the page, Citect loses communication and inform this showing alarm on HW alarm page. When I again open page where I show read data, communication back again. Where could be a problem? I will mention that I have more different Modbus TCP devices in project configured and with them don't have such problem. The only difference is that I am reading from holding registers and initialize parameter in citect.ini is not defined for them as for switches.
  16. I am working on project where I need to program delta PLC to receive ASCII code from scanner. I anyone know how to program it helpls me alot.

  20. 1783-NATR Modbus TCP

    Jim Hortenberry posted a topic in Allen Bradley / Rockwell Automation

    Has anyone successfully used a 1783-NATR for Modbus TCP communication between a ProSoft MNET card (in the ControlLogix rack) and a Modicon Quantum? ProSoft MNET:  10.x.y.z Modicon Quantum:  192.168.1.x There is one (1) ProSoft MNET and four (4) Modicon Quantum's. NOTE:  I know there are other devices that support this behavior...the NATR is the suggested standard hardware.  We are getting various responses from distribution and support.  ...I was hoping someone in the community could confirm.   Thanks for your time!  
  21. Hi I'm trying to set up Modbus RTU communication between FX3U PLC and a weigh module. I would use the ADPRW command using 0X03 to read the 16 bit Holding Register but in the weigh module the Data Address/Holding Register of the value I want to get is 400047 - 400048. How to translate the value in 16 bit?   Thanks, Fabio
  22. Hi,   we have a Mitsubishi PLC Fx3U-128MT and a A&D weighing module AD 4212L. The weighing module supports MODBUS RTU communication via RS-485. We are looking for the most affordable and simpler way to establish communication between PLC and weighing module. At pag 20 of the manual " MODBUS Serial Communication Edition " https://dl.mitsubishielectric.com/dl/fa/document/manual/plc_fx/jy997d26201/jy997d26201g.pdf there are three options of communication equipment. According to your experience, what specific interfaces do you suggest us to invest in? Thanks

  24. Hello all, I am working on a project where I am communicating with a Mensor CPT6100 pressure transducer using a Micro-850 PLC. For this, I have used an AWA instruction to write some ASCII characters to the sensor. The sensor then responds to the write instruction by sending ASCII characters to the RX buffer and I used ACB and ARD instructions to read the ASCII characters. Now, I have set the ACB trigger type to 0 (msg triggered only once) and it successfully reads from the sensor. However, when I set the ACB trigger type to 1 (msg triggered multiple times), I do not get any reading in the ARD block. As a matter of fact, the ACB Q bit switches off every time the program is executed when the trigger type is set to 1. I am trying to get continuous readings from the sensor, but when the trigger type is set to 0, the program latches on to the first and only reading and it won't change. My question is, how can I change my program so that it can continuously and autonomously read from the sensor without me having to manually trigger the AWA and ACB instructions every time. I am attaching the program to this thread for your reference.  ASCII_Test_Copy.ccwarc
  25. Hi all, I'm having an issue with EcoStructure Control Expert where when using DTM browser I try to connect but I get a message "No Ethernet/IP device at specified address...." My issue is that I had a device communicating using modbus but it has stopped and I cannot diagnosis the issue. I can ping the address and run a modbus poll from a PC on the network and everything performs correctly. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
