antht Posted June 9, 2004 Report Posted June 9, 2004 (edited) I am currently working on a new data collection/machine monitoring system. I plan to alert key personnel to machine stoppages using text messages. I plan to use a PC to do this. Has anyone any experience of a similar system? I am looking for a low cost way of doing this, ideally a free method. In case you are interested the system will consist of Mitusbishi FX1N's with E150 HMI's connected on a CC-Link network to an A or Q Series master PLC. Cheers Edited June 9, 2004 by antht Quote
Guest EA Posted June 9, 2004 Report Posted June 9, 2004 If you do not want to control the system (only monitoring) a cheaper and easier method is to connect with a simple DDE server and Excel application (or Visual Basic application). Xavi http://mitsuplc.tecnicos.org Quote
