Undefined_Protocol Posted May 8, 2017 Report Posted May 8, 2017 Guys! I will appreciate any help on this. This is my current situation: I wanted to read data registers from my FX5U PLC to the L02CPU using Ethernet communication. I am new to fixed buffer communications and socket communications , so can you guys lend me a hand in dealing with this study? thank you very much guys. Listed below are the hardware: 1. FX5U-32MR/ES 2. L02CPU 3. 1 meter CAT5E LAN cable (straight connection) 4. IQ Works 2 (GX Works2 and GX Works 3) Can you provide me with a sample program and system architecture on this? I would appreciate the help guys.
Clear.Mind Posted May 8, 2017 Report Posted May 8, 2017 (edited) FX5U built-in ethernet similar with LQ. FX5ETH.usl - There is library for FX5 based on library for LQ (just changed SD registers). LQnUDEEthernet_GW2_V200.sul - library for LQ you can also download it from mymitsubishi (https://eu3a.mitsubishielectric.com/fa/en/service/download). It go with CHM help file and programm example . You can use tcp or udp connection. For tcp connection use FX5EthActive on FX5 side, and use LQnUDEEthUnpassive on L side. For udp connection use FX5EthUDP on FX5 side, and use LQnUDEEthUDP on L side. FX5ETH.usl LQnUDEEthernet_GW2_V200.sul Alos you can try L series simple PLC communication read Post by Gambit. Edited May 8, 2017 by Clear.Mind 1
Gambit Posted May 10, 2017 Report Posted May 10, 2017 You don't need to program anything. The L-series has simple PLC communication setting. Altough only the QnA FX3 and system Q are listed I think the FX5 will work as well 1
Undefined_Protocol Posted May 31, 2017 Author Report Posted May 31, 2017 (edited) Mr @Clear.Mind, You provided the solution very clearly to me. I already tried to adapt the solution and the workarounds of the function. Thank you! Edited May 31, 2017 by Undefined_Protocol
Undefined_Protocol Posted May 31, 2017 Author Report Posted May 31, 2017 (edited) Mr. @Gambit, Thank you for the response to my query. Actually I know the simple communications very well, yet when the communication involves the new FX5plc, which the simple communications function do not support, we have to use the socket communications. Anyways, I appreciate your efforts. Edited May 31, 2017 by Undefined_Protocol
