Yeah, for sure no answer will be solid if you don't provide more info. How is the motor connected to the PLC? What are you trying to control? On/off, speed control?
If you are trying to turn on a PLC output, make sure you put a variable on the appropriate output in the I/O Map screen and then turn on that output with your PLC program or HMI buttons.
Normally, you would not use the physical I/O to control the motor but use internal bits to control the motor output
Like the attached, Cannot remember the memory map (internal bits/words) but the only physical I/O will be the output to drive the motor (assuming this is a simple direct on-line motor wired not communicating to a VFD.
Use internal bits for buttons on HMI but you could use the physical output in the PLC & display its status using that bit.
Your post is a liitle lacking information but below is a simple start stop logic using HMI buttons linked to internal bits as energise when pressed
Hi.
I would like to know how to control my motor using NB HMI and the Sysmac Studio on NX1P2 PLC.
I have already established communication between the NX1P2 and NB HMI and the simulation works.
My goal is to use the HMI to activate the motor connected to the NX1P2 PLC which has a program linked to NB HMI.
In short, how does an HMI link physical I/O.
I would appreciate any working suggestion or guidance.
You didn't say you were using gearing. Yes, once the error is detected, that function block quits with an error. The error needs to be cleared with the MC_Reset function block and then gearing can be executed again.
Please keep in mind those are EXECUTE type function blocks, so they execute the moment the input becomes true. There is no reason at all to leave that input on... Once an error is detected, the error must be reset and then the function block must be executed again.
ENABLE inputs are required to remain on, but the motion FBs are mostly EXECUTE type.
For most cases, you never touch the AT column. If you are making variables for inputs and outputs, they are assigned on the I/O Map screen. You can see what connection is assigned by reading the text of the AT column, it will show the connection point for the data. This applies to the local and networked devices.
You can however still force old fashioned Omron PLC addresses, and that is really only used for backward compatibility with an HMI or data collection product that cannot import the variables. As an example, if you want to store an integer value to D0, you would create a variable and then set the AT column to %D0. This is absolutely a backward compatibility thing, and is not required in order to properly use the PLC. In fact, I believe in some of the newer PLCs, you actually need to go into parameters and enable those memory addresses if you intend to use the old style.
Hello
I need WinESG Software from Ge in order to program the ES Controller Entellipro
Please it is urgent and as per manual the program came with CD partnumber 720020
I need your support
Hello!
I have been using Omron for around 4 years on my crane controlling projects. One of the reasons omrons was selected was one big customer that had "factory spec" to have NS series CPU. I have not been having any problems with hardware so far (around 30 units installed).
Anyway company i work at was had discussion about to change main PLC units to bechkoff. I had meeting with beckhoff and everything seems to be same or even better with beckhoff. For example they have Safety rated Load cell input unit which is very handy on crane industry, Safety card is also cheaper than omron default Load cell input card. They also have the build in webserver that can be programmed easily as "HMI".
Only "bad" thing i managed to found out by myself was license politics which is kinda arguable. (around 400€ / CPU for HMIserver and Twincat), anyway it is still way cheper than installing physical display on crane.
So the questions is is there any reason not to jump twincat world?
The E300 is only 422/232 so probably will not work as 485 requires enabling/disabling the send/recieve lines so you would probably need some 485/422 interface plus the E series was EOL some years ago better to go with the GOT.
