Hello, I'm currently researching Rockwell controllers for our PLC implementation, but there are some aspects I couldn't find in the manuals. I would greatly appreciate it if you could provide more details on the following: ①Procedure for Adding Modules Online: In the manual "1756-um001p-en-p," it mentions the possibility of adding units online. However, I couldn't find specific instructions on how to do this. For instance, with I/O modules, I assume it's as simple as physically attaching them to the chassis using RIUP, but I'm unsure about the software side (e.g., Logix5000) and any operations required on the controller itself. ②Online Module Addition for Remote I/O: The manual mentions that EtherNet/IP modules can be added online. Would it be possible in either of the following scenarios? ②-1 Adding I/O modules to the chassis of an existing remote I/O station. ②-2 Creating a new remote station. Our investigation has hit a roadblock, and we're in quite a quandary. If you have any information on these matters, your guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Dear Forum, I am working on a set of "drivers" for some VFDs and wondering about you guys experience with it. The system layout is as following: FX5UC RS-485: MODBUS-RTU RS-485, lets say with 1x Mitsubishi F840, could be other drives (one drive per FX5UC) Ethernetport: Connected to GT2510, using Freqrol driver Another setup is for some other reasons not possible. I want to have one PLC program for different connected VFDs, scheduled VFDs at the moment are: Mitsubishi F-840, ABB ACS880, Toshiba L.V. VFD, Toshiba T-300MVi. What I want to do: Read & Write status information - done. Read monitoring values - done. I want to setup some VFD parameters via the HMI. Send the parameter to the PLC and from the PLC to the VFD. The parameters are "basic VFD parameters", every VFD should have, such as: Torque boost, accel/decel time, min/max frequency, base voltage/frequency, etc. Of course these parameters are not simple Pr.0 to Pr. 125 but spread all over the place. I want to check for min. and max. limits inside the PLC before transmitting the data to the VFD. Knowing "basic parameters" will turn out quickly to "VFD specific parameters", I want to be prepared on the programming side. The APSRW for read/write parameters are called through the program and hand shakes with other APSRW calls. What would be a good approach do to the above? I rather invest more time into the PLC programming rather complicated HMI-Handling. Reading simple 125 words and the next 125 words, then writing 125word and again the next 125 words? Reading / writing individual parameters? Reading / writing 125 parameters at once? Any other approach for implementation? Best regards, MarkusR

Dears, I would appreciate your help on the below matter. I am trying to send email using intouch scada. I am using the following command: StartApp "powershell.exe " + par0 + par1 + par2 + par3 + par4 + par5 + par6 + par7 + par8 + par9; par0 --> is the powershell script path par1 --> is the email par2 to par9 are some parameters i would like to send. I checked the power shell script and its working just fine, but when i run the script through intouch it seems that executes a part of the string. For example: par0 = "PATH_ON_MY_PC/powershell.ps"; par1 = "test@test.com" par2 = " -par1 12"; par3 = " -par2 10"; par4 = " -par3 test"; ... par9 = " -par9 9"; I am only getting first parameter and if i change to this: StartApp "powershell.exe " + par0 + par1 + par3 + par2 + par4 + par5 + par6 + par7 + par8 + par9; I will only get third parameter. How can I overcome this limitation?

I am trying to online edit a program in a MELSEC QCPU, using GX Works2, but I keep getting this error "A file which does not exist in the PLC was specified" <ES:010a4022> Few weeks ago I had just online edited the same program in the same PLC with the same steps with no problem. There had been no changes to the PLC after that. Just all a sudden when I try to edit yesterday I get this error. Not an expert in Mitsubishi, just started learning the basics. Connection to PLC is by USB cable. Steps I followed to connect to PLC: -Online > Read from PLC -Select PLC Series: QCPU (Q mode) -Select PLC side I/F Serial Setting: Serial USB -Select all target program to Read, then Execute I am editing the file that I had just read from PLC Steps I followed to online edit: -Online > Monitor > Monitor (Write mode) -Execute the function below when mode is changed: Checked all -Edit the program (basically just deleted one -||- contact and drew back the line) -Compile > Online Program Change Then Bam! error get! "A file which does not exist in the PLC was specified" <ES:010a4022> I had tried Verify with PLC, but all results match. Is there something I am missing? Help much appreciated!

analog output card 1734-OE2V parameters, fault/actions, program mode
Jiggadoo posted a topic in Allen Bradley / Rockwell Automation
I have an analog output card 1734-OE2V and there is in the fault/actions page parameters for program mode. What is program mode and when it is activated? Fault mode is clear but... Program should be written the value, but when this happens? -
I do have a problem with Stratix 5700 managed switch. I have a system with 3 Stratix 5700 switches with their own systems. If I switch off the power one of the cabinet (including the Stratix) and put the power on again, after that switches are bloking all the trafic in the system for a few seconds. So, linking the system on will make switch to go fault. This can not be correct. What are the minimum settings that is needed to do for the switches, not to go fault during switching power on. I have made now smartport settings for the switches 'switch for automation' => no progress. Still same.

I will work on Q2A series Mitsubishi which seems to be around 20 years old. And wondering if I can connect directly to RS-422 (25 pin D sub) (picture below) port on the CPU module? As far as I understand from the manual this port can be accessed only by a Mitsubishi programming module (Q6CPU)? The only alternative I can see from the I/O Devices is that there is A1SJ7QC24 which I assume is used for HMI, in this case I could possibly connect to RS-485 or RS-232C channel (depending which one is free). My question is by connecting to QC24 module would I be able to make my modifications online? Thanks, Tom

Hello Ladies and Gents, Im quite new to working with Omron. I am struggling very much to get online with an Omron CPM2C-S110C. It has a CIF01 card also. I hear this PLC is quite an old one. I have referenced the manual on 'connecting a computer running support software' and double checked I have the correct cables. The ones I am using and the way I am connecting is:- PLC Peripheral slot >> CS1W-CN118 >> XW2Z-200S-CV >> serial to USB >> Laptop Checking on Device Manager, I have all the drivers installed, the comms ports are correctly numbered yet I still cannot connect. There are 4 dip switches on the top right hand side of the CPU and all are swiched off. I have called Omron Tech Support and they said to ignore them in this instance. The RS232C port on the CIF01 is used by a barcode scanner so there is no means to connect through that (I have been told) I feel that I have been through setting and checked in CX-Programmer and nothing looks obscure. Please offer me any ideas you may have. I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.

Hello all, hoping for some help with an issue we currently have. We have a stationary unit provided by an automation company which is controlled by an Omron CP1E PLC unit. We have just purchased and installed the latest CX-One software with key etc as we are aiming to make modifications to the machine. When connected to the PLC via USB the drivers install however we get an error message when viewing the driver properties stating windows is unable to verify the digital signatures. When attempting to connect via USB direct online we get a failed to connect to PLC error. We have tried updating the drivers but it states the most up to date drivers are installed. Also tried uninstalling and reinstalling drivers. Anyone able to offer any advice? We have no experience with Omron so unsure if there is something we are missing. Thanks!

Hi, My Powerflex 525 Drive is currently working in the Project. I wanted to observe the drive parameters when the drive is running and live with PLC. I usually do that by getting online with the PLC (1756L72S) from RSLogix5000 and then by going in to the Drive Properties from the I/O Configuration folder i use to click on Drive tab and from there i was able to observe all the Drive parameters with the real-time values on which drive is running. Now when i try to observe the Same real time parameters on my other PF525 drive, i follow the same procedure as mentioned above till going into the Drive properties and when i try to click on drive tab its gives me a Screen with a message "AUTOMATIC CONNECTION FAILED". The status of drive in the drive properties still shows me that the drive is running. How can i observe the Real-time Parameters for this other PF525 Drive? Thanks.
