  1. 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!!
  2. Cannot Connect to CP1L-E

    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.
  3. Hello Everyone, I am studying the overview of the CIP Message Communications in Omron's "NJ/NX-series CPU Unit Built-in EtehrNEt/IP Port User's Manual"  but not all is clear for me. Could anyone suport me with the WireShark's capture of the PC <-> Omron NJ  CIP communication session  ? I'd like to see in 'real' world the CIP packets used to read/write of Omron's NJ Global variables.   Thanks in advance Zbyszek  
  4. 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.  
  5. Input Name of User in CP1E

    Hello, my name is Danu. I have a project to print label to SATO printer with CP1E from my weighing scale. I can print weight data in label, and i think i dont have a problem with SATO and weighing scale. My question is, can CP1E input the name of user with keyboard or HMI (especially NB7W (because i just have NB7W)) and save it in memory in CP1E? because i want print a label with name of user, weight data, and name of goods. And my second question is, Does Omron PLC have a type that has 3 RS232 or 1 RS232 with 2 optional board for RS485 (CP1W-CIF11) and RS232 (CP1W-CIF01) ? Thank you.
  6. Hallo, i want to connect Omron PLC CP1E use CP1W-CIF11 to AD4329A with RS485 communication.  my wiring is CP1w-CIF11     AD4329A SDA-                  SDA & RDA SDB-                 SDB & RDB and until now, i cant get data from AD4329A. Do you have any clue for this project?   Thank you Riandanu PLC to 4329A coba.cxp ad4329aex.pdf
  7. 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.

  9. Connecting CPM1 to KEPServerEX5

    Hello there, I'm having a problem with connecting my Omron CPM1 PLC with KEPServerEX5. The problem is that I can't find any drivers that support a serial connection with the CPM1. The only driver that comes close to what I'm looking for is the Omron FINS Serial driver, but that one only supports the following devices: Even if i choose the CVM1 (that has simular TAG-addresses as the CPM1) I can't get any connection because it requires an ID with the following format (UU.AAA.NNN.) and I have no idea where to get this. I also tried to using the U-CON (user-configurable) driver, but I can't figure out how to get this working. I'm running a program in the CPM1 with a Input(00.01) , Output(10.01) and Timer(T000). I used the Transaction Editor to import these tags in KEPWare: I checked the serial port settings and they are correct. The only thing I'm not sure about is the device ID, but I tried 0 until 5 and I don't think it could be any higher than that. I'm hoping any of you guys is experienced with making a serial connection to KEPWare and is able to help me with this problem. Jimmy
  10. FinsGateway Help

    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..  
  11. Mitsubishi & Omron -OPC-UA - KEPWARE Server

    Hi,In a project I have four Progressive Pressing Machine. Each machine with different PLC like Mitsubishi 'Q00UCPU' with 'QJ71C24N-R4', 'FX-3U-16M', 'FX2N-128MR' and Omron 'CJ2M-CPU13' with 'SCU41-V1' module.Now my task is to connect all PLC with KEPWARE Server through OPC-UA.Note: There is no Ethernet Port available and existing RS232 port are all connected to all respective HMI'sIn this scenario, I would like to know, do all the PLC that i have mentioned above supports OPC-UA through Ethernet if i add a new Ethernet module to each PLC. So the data transmission will be faster or else should I buy RS232 serial communication module to communicate through OPC-UA.And also i would like to know, what kind of "Industrial Switch" will be perfect for this application.Kindly suggest a best way to prove myself.Thanks in advance
  12. I am trying to communicate to a AB 1738-AENTR on a OMRON ethernet/ip network. I have configured the AENTR module through the web browser and have been using Omron's Network Configuration tool to set up the network. I can see the AENTR but cant seem to communicate to it. I think this has something to do with the input and output byte size? Does anyone out there have any experience in setting up a 1738-AENTR in a OMRON system? If so, how do I determine what the proper byte size is? Also, is there something else I should be doing to get the module working?
  13. 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? 
  14. Hi, I would like to know if it is possible to send files (pictures, csv, etc) to the memory card (CF) of a Omron HMI (serie NS) from my computer using FINS Commands. I am not able to find a manual with the FINS commands for a NS HMI. But I think it should be possible. Thanks.

  16. 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  
  17. Hello, In sysmac studio, for a NA hmi, is there a way to access a button in Visual basic from a global subroutine ? I always get this when i compile : error BC30456: 'MyPage' is not a member of 'My_NA_HMI'. the code is : My_NA_HMI.MyPage.myButton.IsEnabled = True   Regards,
  18. Hi everyone; I want to communication Omron NB series HMI with Allen Bradley Micro 830 PLC. I don't know is it possible. İf its that possible, help me please..
  19. I have a NB7W HMI connected to a CPIH over RS232. I'm connected to the HMI over USB and when I try to download my project, it starts the downloading GUI process and fails at a random time and shows a popup that says "data reading error". The HMI is locked up at this point and needs to be restarted. This is a fresh HMI and has not previously had a program on it. I created a blank project to make sure I didn't do anything weird in my program, but got the same result when I tried to download. Has anyone experienced something like this before? Its made it as far as 50%, and has also failed almost immediately.   Thanks in advance. 
  20. Hi, Now I am using Sysmac Studio - NA HMI. I am facing the problem of Data edit tool here I am unable to give Indirect address. Like this address HM15_Recipe_hmi(Index_No).SetPoint_1 But If I give direct Address its working HM15_Recipe_hmi(8).SetPoint_1   I Hope someone give the solution.    
  21. Internal function block variables

    I have a function block where the first internal variable is showing as address H1420 in the Global Symbol table. When I add another retained variable to the function block then save and compile the code, the variable address in the global symbol table shifts from H1420 to H1488.  I need to retain the address as I will be downloading code and I need to ensure the address if H1420 stays with that variable.    Can anyone help with this?
  22. Hi,  I want to use the servo drive in internally speed control, how can I change the motor direction? Do you help me for wiring and parameter settings please.  
  23. Hello to everybody,   I have another question relative sysmac studio. When I close and open SysmacStudio and open project, each time HMI reset update rates to 500ms for my variable in global variables list. I have regular variables with standard types and few structures that I pulled out from PLC. everything works. But I need to change some update rates for my variables and it's taking time to do it each single day when I need touch HMI program.   Any opinion what may be wrong?   Thanks in advance! 
  24. Hello to everybody, I have a project with NJ-101, 7 MX-2 VFD and ECC-202 with safety CPU SL-3300 and few I/O slices. Till today I did not have problem to build my project. All day long today I'm receiving and  error during the rebuild. It's says that my DataTypes section got failed during the build and only 1 error message I have: An exception such as memory shortage has occurred. I check memory usage,  it's not even load on half. Manual says that I need to split ladder programs or reduce amount of Global Variables. I do have some custom structures and 1 union, don't think that it cause the problem. DataType section uploaded in excel file. Does anybody has experienced similar issue? And what is the solution for the problem? I'm using SysmacStudio 1.26 with Windows10 x64 Regards, Scotty DataTypes.xlsx
