Posted 2 Jan 2009 hi everybody, I have some diificulty on settings for communicating between Control Logix 5561 PLC and Omron NS series HMI. I mean the HMI is unable to connect to the PLC. The HMI will sound alarm when I switch the reading/writing address from PT to the HOST(AB). Can someone show me the light on the settings? Thanks... cheers, Eferata Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 6 Jan 2009 If you have correctly set the comm. settings for serial port to "Generic Protocol" and "Allen-Bradley DF1" in CX-Designer then your problem is either the cable connections or the Serial Port configuration on the Control Logix 5561 PLC. Unless you provide more detailed information it is difficult to troubleshoot your problem!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 2 Apr 2009 Would you be willing to share how you set-up the tags in the Omron NS screen? I'm working on an application using a CompactLogix & Omron NS screen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
