  1. FX2N-4AD

    dynamicboy posted a topic in Mitsubishi

    Dear Friends; Today i am stuck and do not understand how i fix the following issue? 1. We have PH controller from Hannah Model HI 8711T , PH transmitter HI 8614L and PH probe. On the terminal blocks of the controller there are  4-20mA (Isolated).  2. We have FX 2N-4AD analogue module to read the PH value on the HMI. 3. First i connect the 4-20 mA as follows Short the V+and I+ terminals and connected it to the -ve of the controller 4-20mA terminal. I- connect withe the -ve of 24 VDC. and +24 applied to the +ve of controller 4-20mA terminal. But the reading not read by the controller. Then i change the wiring as follows Short the V+and I+ terminals and connected it to the +ve of the controller 4-20mA terminal. I- terminal connected to the -ve of the controller 4-20 mA terminal. By this the reading is shown perfectly. But the issue is after 10 to 15 second all the values that is on the LCD of controller , transmitter and on HMI fluctuate. Even i connect and disconnet the shield on the Module side but the issue is not fixed. How i fix it, and guide me how i wire up properly FX2N-4AD with 4-20 mA isolated output of the controller?   Thanking you, I will remain 

  2. where are the FB libraries

    Chickenkiller91 posted a topic in CX-Programmer

    Hello, Im looking for the in built function blocks, but i cannot find it in the program files/ omron folder where the manual says (even with search for *.cxf), perhaps i dont have it installed, but where can i get them from? As i remember i downloaded cx-one from the official omron web page after login etc, so thats why i dont understand why am i missing the fb libraries What else place there is to find useful FB-s? Thanks!
  3. Hi! I have this CQM1 CPU21 plc running but the problem is that I'm not able to communicate using CX Programmer V9.5. Under the "Backup PLC" section, the drop down list for the specified PLC is not included. Is there any update/software to be use in order to communicate the PLC? I have "USB to RS232 Cable" that I have been using for different PLC, I also have this OMRON CQM1-CIF02 Interface Unit that is not also working upon communicating the PLC. I'm thinking that the software itself has a problem or needs an update. I hope someone can help. Newbie here in OMRON PLC. Thanks!!!   Marky 
  4. Hello, We have a machine from Taiwan that we are troubleshooting.  I pulled the program with comments, from the PLC.  It looks like they used a combination of English and i'm assuming Chinese.  The problem is that the Chinese is not displaying correctly.  It displays as symbols like @, ©, and other keyboard symbols. I was wondering if anybody knows what I have to do to display the comments correctly?  Do I have to install a CX-ONE Chinese language pack or a Windows language pack?  If I need a language pack, where can I get it and will I easily be able to go back to English when I'm done?  I've emailed OMRON but it seems that they are very slow with their support.   Thank you for any help in advance.
  5.  Hi, im from brazil and need some help, some days ago i buy a programmer CQM1-PRO01-E beacause one plc CPM2B are deceased, we have another equipaments with this one, but CX programmer not response and de are trying day after day, but with this programmer i want copy and paste the logic from other PLC. Can you help with copy and paste on programmer CQM1?

  6. OMRON PLC MEMORY AREAS

    Kiiza posted a topic in CX-Programmer

    Hello guys, I have gotten to a level where I can do a few things with an OMRON PLC. However, there's something that is supposed to be basic by now but I still don't understand it, and I will appreciate your help on this . What is the difference between the D, W and H memory areas of the PLC? And in what instances do I utilise each of them for storage of my data? Thank you.  
  7. Hi guys, I have tried almost everything and ran out of option on how can I successfully connect modicon m34020 processor using mini USB with unity pro, I am working in Windows 10 and selected everything possibly correct I can, like setting address to USB, and "SYS" in Set parameters, I have USBplc driver installed and it shows, "disconnected" and local and remote id emptly fields. In my device manager, I can see a question mark on the processor driver "BMX CPU" and when I try to update/upgrade/fix it it simply goes to nothing. While the Unity Pro shows the error "this isn't the right address or the plc is too busy or off". Please advise, if i am missing something. thanks in advance.

  8. how to connect cj2m + ns8

    Chickenkiller91 posted a topic in CX-One

    Hello, I would like to make single ethernet connection with a cj2m cpu31 and an ns8 screen. What exact setting are need to set at the cpu and at the screen project? Is there some kind of quick guide which shows where to click etc? I dont want to read 700 pages and didnt found a proper manual, maybe you know a good one? Thanks in advance!
  9. Hello! Is it possible to run a program only 1 time when i turn on the plc? In siemens it was ob 100 or soemthing like that, that program only runs one cycle at startup of plc. I want to make sure some bits are off at startup to be in safe position Thank you for your help!.

  10. Pt100 only measure

    Chickenkiller91 posted a topic in CX-Programmer

    Hello, I have a cj2 plc, and i would like to use two pt100 to measure, and just show the results on an hmi screen. I started to look at the  Cat. No. W396-E1-03 SYSMAC CJ Series CJ1W-TC@@@ Temperature Control Units manual,  but i don`t understand fully, that is these card are only for temperature controls? What is the easiest way to have the readings? it doesn't need to be the cheapest solution. And especially how is the programming works? Is there a special unit are i read about but how is the adressing works? Im completely new to omron (i know siemens) so any linked guides are welcome!

  12. Hi guys, I'm in the middle of a little university project, I'm attempting to implement a control system purely based on artificial intelligence. A neural network will be used to map the characteristics of a power plant. A fuzzy logic controller will be used instead of the conventional PID and finally a genetic algorithm will be used to tune the controller while the system is online. This is all simulated of course. Each of those AI's will be developed in Matlab. Only problem with that is, is it outputs the code in C or C++ (From memory). I would have to convert this to structured text (Based on Pascal). So to circumvent this problem I thought I would just directly interface matlab to the PLC (Schneiders M340).  My idea being, all the calculations are done in matlab which are then sent back to the PLC. However this presents me with a new problem of how I would be able to interface matlab to the PLC. If anyone has experience with this sort of connectivity, any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance, Luchek
  13. Hello, My quest is to make a memory card, which I can just put into my PLC on the field and load all program and options etc to my plc. Now i found the official omron guide about it but its not good at all... For example is does not explain that how i need to transfer the H and D memory part to the plc, and that not all network settings are being copied if im not careful.   But my question is: is it possible to make this backup memory card without having the actual plc? Because the process is done in memory card window, which is only available if you are online. So basicly i have to get all the plc rack parts to make this work? I tried with the simulator but ofc it is not working.   Someone mentioned me that it is possible he heard from someone but no one actually knows how to. And there is nothing in the omron manual as i see.
  14. Hi All I am new here without much experience of plcs. I have a PV 550 with DH485 coms port that I want to replace another PV550 with rs232 that communicated with an SLC 5/04.

  15. KEEP madness

    Masterbixo posted a topic in CX-Programmer

    hello guys, When i simulate the programme,using CJ1M CPU21, and i set contact 200.01 and 0.01 on, the KEEP doesn't change the bit of adress 200.01 to 1. The same thing happens to the KEEP below. Can you give us a reason for this problem and show us the way.   Best reggards,   yolo.cxp
  16. hey!  I'm pretty new to PLC's, and I'm supposed to ''teach'' the people at my internship how this PLC works, but I have encountered a problem.  I've gotten pretty far with all the digital programming and understanding how everything works, but I just can't figure out how the analog inputs/outputs and programming works...... I've had a fair explaination on PID and how this works. I've searched the web as well to figure out what PLC instructions to use.    I hope you can answer my following questions.    1, what are the most used PLC instruction blocks which I can use for temperature control, and how am I supposed to use them? 2, Could you please give me an example on how to use PID and what numbers will I need for the calculations? 3, what are the most used PLC Instruction blocks (apart form the analog ones) that I should include in my tutorial?   this is my setup: Ethernet switch MOXA EDS-205 Plc voeding PA202 PLC CPU CJ1MCPU11-ETN Digital IN (16x) CJ1W-ID211 (SL) Digital IN (16x) CJ1W-ID211 (SL) Analog IN (8x) CJ1W-AD081 (SL) Analog IN (8x) CJ1W-AD081 (SL) TRANS OUT (16x) CJ1W-OD212 (SL) TRANS OUT (16x) CJ1W-OD212 (SL) Analog OUT (4x) CJ1W-DA041 (SL)   thank you soo much for looking at my question and considering helping me! the OMRON helpdesk hasn't been very helpfull.    kind regards,    Deuslupos,

  17. NQ Design and CX-Programmer

    Stanciu Gabriela posted a topic in Other Omron Software

    Hello! My name is Gabriela. First, I do not speak very good English. I have to do a project! I have a HMI (NQ3- TQ000B) to OMRON for a teaching platform. I installed NQ Designer for it. I did the program in CX-Programmer . But I have a misunderstanding. How can I connect the CX with NQ . How can I assign internal bits set from CX-Programmer in buttons from NQ-Designer? In the end, I would like that after I connected bits with buttons and I transferred the program to HMI, when I push the button on the HMI interface, the platform to do what I programmed in cx.

  18. DC motor with encoder

    Herant posted a topic in CX-Programmer

    Hello, The company that I work for wanted me to design and build a FIFO loader. For those who do not know what a FIFO loader is, it's basically a lift that runs up and down and filling up the magazine slots with pcb's. After I finish the mechanical part i'll try to program it by using a CPM2C - 20. I have already played with CX-programmer and learned my self a bit, for example how to program simple things such as AND and OR gates for controlling motors and lights. Really hard part for me was figuring out how to create a program that reads data from the encoder and use it to create positions which the motor will stop at, and i have not yet figured it out. I've been trying to google it without any luck, the only thing of real info i've got is a 650 page long pdf file or CX-Programmer manual which is hard for me to read since i'm new to all of this. Would be great if any of you people got any source or maybe a manual which are easy to understand for new beginner like myself. A bit about the program i would like to make: The FIFO loader will have some buttons for selecting different programs, lets say you press first button to select "program 1". Then the machine should move up and stop at posision "50" (there are 50 slots on PCB magazine) after it gets signal from pneumatic actuator (which will be used to shove pcb inside the slot) its should move to position "49" and so on.. If FIFO loader is located at "home" position and you press second button to choose "program 2", then it will move to slot "49", wait until it gets loaded, and continue to slot "47" and so on.. The meaning of this is to make a loader which can select a program to fit pcb's with different size of components.

  21. I am trying to use the Tag Data Monitor Tool to create views for the different tags on my 1756-L73. When I try to connect (with the remote name the same as the Path that I use in RSLogix), and select "RSLinx OPC Server" as my OPC server and click connect I get the error window shown in the screenshot (http://i.imgur.com/JoCDvPo.png). I've done quite the extensive googlefu on anything containing the error "funConnectServer" and can find zero information as to why that would be happening. Am I missing something obvious? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
  22. We have a couple Mitsubishi FX2c-96MT 's running a Laser engraver and one of them appears to have a faulty card or connections on the card. we picked up a couple spares one is a FX2C-96MT and the other is FX2c-96MT-ess. Is there really a difference between these? I see on the old PLC the middle card says ess on it already? we need to "harvest" the current plc program before swapping into the new unit. we picked up one of the cheapie pc connection kits which doesn't look like it is right and don't want to connect it and burn something out. IT has a rs232 on one end than a male 25-pin connector with a second cord that goes from female 25-pin to the mini-DIN connector. Neither of the FX2c-96MT plc's have a mini-din connection as i read online everywhere. there is a 25-pin connector on the top next to the FX2c-96MT label. is this the programming port? I would have assumed the programming port would either be the one covered up by the battery cover or the little one on the end with a 3/8 x 1" cover. I am assuming thae, with no instructions for much of anything. Thanks for all and any help in this matter t we should be able to use an older laptop running winXP for this? i downloaded GX developer and will install it on the xp laptop as soon as we are able to be sure of a cable that will be safe and not damage anything. If this cable we purchased will not work, could someone send a link for instructions to fabricate one? I see several in a gogle search, but they are all different and we want to make sure we do this safely as the program on the PLC is apparently NOT backed up anywhere, and the people who set it up years ago are long gon Paul

  23. Working with arrays

    nikitab900 posted a topic in CX-Programmer

    Hi! I can not understend how to work with array from functional blocks. For example, I want to create some functional block (on ST lang.), send to it some array and recive from it some new array (FB make some monipulations with input array). FB code: FOR i:=0 TO 4 DOinputLoadArray:= outputLoadArray*2;END_FOR; How does look my main program (only on ST language) for send input and recive output arrays?
  24. Hello all, I'm new to this forum, hope I will be able to get some answers on this forum. I'm wotking on maintanance for machines under productiona and I would like to conect one machine to my work PC. But when I try to setup conection with RSLinx, RSLinx don't see my PLC. Problem is that my PC is on network with IP addresses 192.168.8.XXX and machine is on 192.168.0.1 IP address and between is cisco RV180 routher which is set to have LAN address 192.168.8.168 (company network), and WAN is set as 192.168.0.200 (subnet 255.255.255.0, gateway 192.168.0.201, dns 192.168.0.202). When I conect directly 1756 ENBT/A card to my laptop (laptop is set to same range of IP addresses) I can see PLC and everything is working but this way is not practical for me. Is there any way to conect my office PC to PLC, some settings in RSLinx Clasic? Any idea would be helpful. I attached simplified network drawing for easyer understanding. network.pdf Thank you for your time and help, best regards, baric1007
