GOT GS2110 ethernet connection with robot

9 posts in this topic

Hi all !   

I need a help about connection between mitsubishi GOT Simple series (gs2110) to kawasaki robot via crossed ethernet cable on tcp/ip protocol. I actually have a fx3g for main unit of my project, and also i have a kawasaki robot for slave unit. My purpose is basically to control both with HMI. I used RS422 between plc and got gs2112 and I want to use a crossed ethernet cable between robot and got but i did not communicate with ethernet even between pc and got.

There is a manuel which I found on internet about GOT2000  Connection Manual (Microcomputers, MODBUS/Fieldbus Products, Peripherals)

I think i need to work on  microcomputer connection (ethernet) subject, what do you think about that ?

I need all advices and ideas which come from you.

 

[ROBOT]--------Ethernet--------[HMI]--------RS422--------[PLC]

It supports tcp/ip protocol. I wrote my own tcp communication code to robot and it runs correctly between pc-robot.

In that case you'll probably have more luck going 

[HMI] ---ethernet---[PLC]---ethernet---[robot]

Thank you for your advice  @Veganic

But  in that case, i think i gonna need double enet module, right?. One for plc to hmi and one for plc to robot. 

In case which i want to do, dont need any enet module on plc, and it means less crowded electrical panel, and get more simplicity. 

I tried something else, like below and it actually passed the test. But in that case still need a enet module on plc.

[ROBOT]--------Ethernet--------[PLC]--------RS422--------[HMI]

So it solves a little bit my situation but I still need to learn something about my main subject.

One FX3U-ENET +  an ethernet hub should work.
