5 posts in this topic

Hello, there,

I need some help  (a lot, maybe). I'm a rookie using PLC. In the company I work for, we need to receive information from the machines (plc controlled) remotely. We are using FX series (Fx1N, fx1S and fx2N in one plant and f33g and fx3s in the other) and I need to know how I can connect this devices (which Ethernet connector do I need, which software). If you can help me with the names I can do some research. Ah, you need to know that I'm in a 3rd world country (no easy acces to regional providers, well I can contact them via email). Sorry for my english, sometimes is a little rude but is my second language.

Kind regards,

 

Ing. Eduardo M.

Well Accept for the FX3G there is no ethernet module available.

However If you connect a GT2103 HMI panel(or bigger) to the CPU port of the FX you can connect to the PLC via the ethernet port of the GT2103 if you use GX WORKS_2.

Is it enough to get the Data via the programming software? IF you need the Data directly into Excel For instance you could consider using MX Sheet

Hello Gambit, thanks for replying me. I'm using Weintek HMI, I can connect this HMI via ethernet and obtain PLC data. Now I'm looking for some OPC server to access.
 Am I doing right?

I don't know the weintek and I do not know if they support transparancy through the terminal to the FX.
