NJ/NA Program upload using only 1 connection.(USB)

[paoawi 0]

is there a way to upload both NA and NJ programs using only 1 connection? Sysmac Studio->USB->NJCPU->Ethernet

same with Mitsubishi's transparent mode?

Not over USB.  And you have transparent mode backwards.  You can connect to Mitsu HMI and tunnel through to PLC, not the other way around.

If you use Ethernet, you can program both over one connection.

He did not say that you could go through the HMI. He said that if both the HMI and the NJ were on Ethernet, then you could connect to both. 

 

The quote below was talking about Mitsubishi:

If the following is true, then you should be able to establish comms:

1) Your NJ is connected to the Ethernet switch

2) Its IP address is set to 192.168.250.1

3) Your laptop is on the same network

4)  The IP Address of the laptop is 192.168.250.*** where *** is a unique number, not equal to 1 or some other number on the network

so you mean to say there's no "transparent mode" feature on sysmac?

[Crossbow 295]

No there is not.  That's exactly what I said.
