scottishgant Posted December 13, 2005 Report Posted December 13, 2005 Following the working I have been doing, I have encountered another problem. I am using CJ1M from Omron and the I will use CPU 315 2DP (siemens) and connect them to Labview using ethernet. However, I tried to use Hyperterminal (or telnet) to test it. Pressing any key, the response becomes always the same: FINS za<$ Between "FINS" and "za" are three [] (squares). Does anyone know what this means? Does anyone know how to establish the connection I need? Can the Siemens plc establish a connection with labview? How? With an OPC server? Thanks. Quote
JesperMP Posted December 13, 2005 Report Posted December 13, 2005 I dont know Labview, but if you want to use OPC I may be of some help. Check if Labview can use OPC. You should definitely be able to ping the S7 PLC. That is step 1 in any case. Make sure that the IP address is set so that the first 3 items are the same, i.e. S7=192.068.0.1 PC=192.068.0.2 Quote
