Posted 17 Dec 2020 Hi colleagues, I would like to ask you about companies in whose plants have many OMRON PLCs, such as NISSAN. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 17 Dec 2020 Our plant used to standardize on Omron PLCs. We've since acquired several different brands but still use about 200 or more in our plant. Why do you ask? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 25 February Have about 100 give or take 20. Why do you ask? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 14 March I would like to propose a system to control the PLC programmers' activity, improving the proccess control and the security of the sequence. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 15 March Check out the MDT-Autosave software. It handles Omron and many other vendors PLCs, HMIs and Robots with Change Management and Version Control. Last two places I worked we deployed it to great success. https://www.mdt-software.com/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 27 March That probably wouldn’t work easily with SYSMAC ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 30 March so it does, wonder how that works considering sysmac doesn't have the same windoze file access? Maybe it launches sysmac itself? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 31 March They have a short demo video here - https://www.mdt-software.com/mdt-autosave/ In short the Autosave Client retrieves the library copy of the source code from the Autosave Server and uses the target machine software {Studio5000, Sysmac, CX, FTView, Ecostruxure, etc.} to allow you to monitor, modify / work with the programmable device. When you're done and exit the programming software the client picks back up, prompts you for a change notice and sends a copy of the latest and greatest to the server. I've used it at various job sites for the last 15+ years. They have a decent user base and strive to keep up with the latest software releases. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 31 March As far as I know MDT isn't working with Studio. My understanding is it has the ability to access the PLC directly, and is backing up from there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
