Hello everyone, I have a problem with packing machine. There are some issues with one of the axis, when axis actual position is near to 1800000 some error appear and operator has to turn off machine on main contactor. This axis is working in Linear mode. I think that rotary mode would be better for this axis. And here is my question. Which instructions, and what options i should change/check when i change count mode in axis's options. Can any1 point me some manuals to read or give me some advice ? Thank you in advance.

Hi Guys, who knows about the new Software FactoryTalk Network Manager? I am trying to get the connection with a stratix 5700 but no success. I think i do not know how to really configure the network Manager so that it sees the switch. Now just for the test i have a LAN cable from switch (any port) to the host PC where Network Manager is installed; the IP of the PC is in the same range like the switch. Any ideas? thank you

Sysmac Studio cannot be used with the current license
mandrusha posted a topic in NJ Series / Sysmac Studio
Hello everyone, I have this message when I trying to open my project which I did. "The project includes a model that cannot be used with the current license. The project is closed." I recently reinstalled windows, but version of Sysmac Studio is same, License is same, but now I not be able to open my project. I just tried to install last version of Sysmac Studio 1.25, and of course nothing changed, looks like issue with license. But again, license is same. -
I'm very new to sysmac. I am trying to display the current date and time in the corner of each of my HMI pages. I saw a button labeled date and time. It is asking for a variable for behavior. Do I need to write some basic structured text or FB in plc to get date and time and pass it over? I figured the button would update itsself since when I placed it on the screen it had the current date and time and refreshes every time I leave the page and come back.

Array Comparison with a single Output for Equals/Not Equal
TigerLily posted a topic in NJ Series / Sysmac Studio
I am a long time Omron user, but this is my first time using the Sysmac software, I want to compare the 16 bits of my array to zero, if any of the bits are on I want to turn on an output, I see the AryCmpNE and AryCmpNEV, but they have a seperate bit for each item in the Array, is there any way to do this without using Unions? Thank you!! -
Hi guys, I was programming my CP1L-E over ethernet with no issues at all. I did get an error when uploading my program regarding cycle time, so I went into PLC->Settings->Timings and changed both values to maximum (4000*10ms watch cycle time and 32000ms constant cycle time). Once I restarted the plc it just wouldn't connect. I've tried option cards CP1W-DAM01, CP1W-CIF41, CP1W-EIP21 and i just cannot get comms with the PLC. I can see the CP1W-EIP21 card on my computer, however,, in its own IP address. From what ive figured, the plc is getting stuck somewhere in its boot cycle as I am unable to ping it either. The POWER and RUN lights are both green, and the LNK/ACT light flashes when i connect an ethernet cable to the inbuilt ethernet port. Any help is appreciated, thank you! Any way to factory reset the whole plc or even just the settings? I've disconnected the battery for 30 minutes before plugging it back in aswell but that did not help me.

No response from NX701 behind intranet firewall router
Transistor posted a topic in NJ Series / Sysmac Studio
I use Netgear routers with multi-NAT capability to attach machines to the company LAN. One of the advantages is that similar machines can have identical network addressing schemes while a multi-NAT router on each machine can be used to assign unique external addresses. The usual error on these setups is to forget to assign a gateway IP address and so the PLC can't respond to requests from outside its subnet. I have the router set up as normal (as I have done a hundred times before on other machines). PLC has correct IP address, subnet and gateway (that of the router LAN address). Router has NAT rule configured, correct LAN subnet, etc. I can PING the PLC from the company network. This implies that the router, wiring, etc., are all OK. If I disconnect the PLC ethernet cable during a PING I get errors. This implies that the address is unique, etc. Controller --> Communication Setup --> Ethernet connection via hub --> Ethernet communication test --> "A communication error has occurred." Has anyone seen this? Any reason why it shouldn't work as I expect? Many thanks. -
Hello, I am looking for a way to programatically select a recipe. Any time that a recipe is change or saved, the recipe viewer object always resets its view and selects the first recipe. This will lead to possibly writing the wrong recipe to the controller, as well as frustrate the user if they have to scroll through a hundred items to find the recipe again. I looked at the VB functions, but the only one I could find that was close was the .SelectedRecipe, which is a read only. I am using Sysmac Studio v1.1.7, and an NA5 HMI. Any help would be appreciated.

First of all, I apologize if there is a simple solution, if there is, I can't seem to find It. I simply want to make and HMI talk to a PLC using Omron's FINSGateway/SYSMAC window's drivers.. Heck, if I can get an example that uses a simple Excel spreadsheet talking via DDE that would help. I have been writing custom drivers in Windows for years to send FINS commands back and forth to the various Omron PLC's, based off of a bit change either on the HMI side or PLC side. Super fast since only the data that has changed is written back and forth... Lately I have tried using DDE (polling type) communications as some jobs require this and not custom drivers. We use Wonderware Intouch for the most part and have found their DA and OI servers for Omron to be terrible at communications on large IO installations. Their IO servers essentially send 1 packet per bit or word every x msecs over the network according to a wireshark capture instead of blocks of word ranges. I was told FINSGateway / Sysmac Gateway could be installed on a machine and map via datalink( or the sorts) PLC memory to psedo PLC memory on the windows computer; that the local computer mimics a PLC. The third party application can then read the local memory many times faster than going across the network to get it packet by packet. I can't seem to find a simple 'DDE' type interface with FINSgateway whether trying to use it locally or to a remote PLC. Usually a Topic name and an Item / Tagname.... I have used these DDE interfaces with other brand PLC controllers and their local driver, but can't find squat with the Omron Driver. Usually you specify in the HMI a tagname and it is pointed to a 'TOPIC' and 'ITEM' that relates to an address in the PLC. Anyone have any type of info on this? I see posts in forums about doing this, but can't find any specifics. Again, I would think this would be basic beginner stuff, but can't seem to find any info on FINS/SYSMAC gateway and how to make a third party app talk to it. It's been around for many years so I find this odd. Thanks for your time..

Is it possible to change the range setting for NX Analog IO cards?
TigerLily posted a topic in NJ Series / Sysmac Studio
I am beginning my first project with the newer NX platform and am a little confused by the description in the manual vs what is actually in the sysmac setup. The manual makes it sound like you can adjust the range settings for the card, but I don't see any where to do it in the setup. I also don't know what the Index and sub-index columns mean, so I am wondering if this is a back door to access the range settings? -
Hello! I am trying to connect my PLC with SCADA. I am using S7-1200 1212C CPU (RELAY outputs). My SCADA system is iFIX 5.8 with driver S7A. I am trying to establish connection via GPRS router (TCP/IP). Port being used is 102 (default by S7A driver). In my company we have private network, SIM card in GPRS router gets static IP (set by RADIUS server) which is 10.247.XXX.XXX. My PLC has IP 192.168.0.10 set in Project. I am not sure what am I doing wrong. How to correctly set IP address in PLC to communicate in private network via GPRS router with static IP? I already enabled TCP port 102 in my router but I am not sure to which IP should I enable it because I am not sure if IP address set in PLC is correct. Should I use some communication blocks in program? I also enabled PUT/GET function (see attached pictures). Please help. Thanks in advance! :)

Hey was just curious if anyone has come across the error message for Sysmac Studio posted. I have uploaded an image. Essentially what happened was I was using sysmac studio, went for lunch and it wouldn't open when I got back. I uninstalled v1.23, ran the remover (1901) and reinstalled it. Still could not open without the error. I uninstalled and tried installing V1.13 (oldest one I have) and again am getting the error. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks, DJ

Once again. I'm still facing problem with Pofibus communication between PLC and Comnet-DP module. I'm trying to connect Bosch valve station equiped with Comnet-DP communication module with Omron CJ2M and RPM21 (profibus master) I've made proper configuration in master settings (most important was baud rate but Bosch module adjust baud according to master) Then I've set slave configuration as you can see below: According to: Other settings were unable to modify or just were left unchhanged. Omron is detecting connected slave but returns diagnostics that says that something is wrong in parameter settings. Same message I can read from Bosch module LEDs. Any experiance in profibus diagnosis, advices what to do? I've checked all settings configurations I have no idea what to do.

Hello all. i am new with this plc. I have created a message to send to my device via network configurator everything works properly. I asked if there is the same possibility to send the message through Sysmac Studio I enclose the photo. My device is Encoder Sick AFM60A, it is for setup preset. with Allen Bradley i use send message. we have the same possiblity with Omron? Thx all

Hi All I'm struggling to a PLC using WAGO's e!cockpit software which I am new to. In the network tab when I click to select "ETHERNET" from the "Scan Settings" area all that comes up is a drop down with "update selection" which does nothing. As a result I cannot scan for the PLC's on my network. Has anyone got any ideas on this issue. I'm running on windows 10, could that be a problem?

Hello- I am looking for some existing code to reference to try to troubleshoot an old machine. It has a Omron Sysmac S6 console and I've been able to get the individual inputs and outputs to activate via the console, but the code that is in the machine seems to not be correct. I suspect someone got in there and overwrote a bunch of the initial lines of the program. Again, I can control the machine manually through using the console, but want to now automate it. I've done the program checks and have a whole host of errors, including double coil errors, a missing IL error and circuit errors. Ideally, I'd like to see what the code looks like to "start" the machine with a button (input 9) as an example and also see how that input can keep one output "ON" or running constantly (output 27) while then activating several outputs in sequential order, individually for a set period of time or until they activate a certain sensor (as an example input 6). I've mapped out and am attaching what I believe the process flow to be. I am also attaching the code as I pulled it off the machine. Again, I don't believe the code to be correct. Thank you for reading this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

There appear to be bugs with the EditVariable method that are not documented anywhere. Firstly code below will not work and at same time Sysmac will not report this as an error where the variable to be edited is declared inside a subroutine. The program will compile fine but keypad will not appear when the sub is executed. However, if the variable is declared in the Global Variables table, the keypad will appear and the variable can be edited. I have also tried declaring the variable as Public out side of the subroutine and keypad still fails to appear. Sub EditValue Dim Index As UShort EditVariable("Index") End Sub Second issue is that EditVariable will not work if the variable to be edited is an array using variable as the index into the array. For example EditVariable("myArray(Index)") will not work whereas EditVariable("myArray(1)") will work. The above issue also appears when using a DataEdit object and trying to use an array with a variable as the index as the variable of the data edit object. Stupid thing about this is that MinimumValue and MaximumValue fields in the same DataEdit object will take an array with a variable as the index. Has anyone found a way around these problems?
