Communiaction Problem

[Guest Guest_Ryan]

I have a CPM1A - omron plc. I cannot communicate with it due to the communication settings on the plc being different from the default. is there any way to do a master reset on the device in order to restore the defaults as changing one setting at a time is to time consuming (as there is about 2000 different settings possible)

Ryan, What software are you using? Do you have a handheld programmer available?

...Hi I believe if you plug in a CPM1-CIF11, and set the DIP switch to 'HOST', you will then be able to connect using the standard communications setting using CX-Programmer or Syswin. Nibroc

Haha, What a answer! The switch on CIF01 doesnt help you to communicate. Try Auto Online in CX-P.

Can you tell me the joke too so I can laugh with you. Or do you mean Nibroc's suggestion ? You shouldn't laugh at people who are seriously trying to help someone out.

It does if the swich is set to NT Link and you want to communicate with Host Link.
