How interface visual studio with advancedHMI using omronserialfins to integrate with omron PLC?

[shah]

Hi, i am currently trying to integrate visual studio with advanced HMI tool box to an Omron PLC (cp1h). i am trying to use one of the communication option which is "OmronSerialFinsCom*". But I have no idea how to actually do it. can anybody help me with the setting of the "OmronSerialFinsCom*" properties and where should i download the USB driver for my PLC (cp1h). Thank you in advance.

The USB port is for programming - you will have to install a serial port if the PLC does not have one. You can set up a serial port in the settings tab.

Thank you Bob.....My PLC do have a serial port and i have successfully connected my PLC and PC (Com 23). I have a new problem which is how do I identify my I/O address, because im not familiar with omron addressing
