I want to communicate my Q series PLC with Factory IO using GX works 2 software, I want to use modbus tcp/ip as server in factory IO and the ips are as follows plc CPU: 192.168.1.30 modbus:192.168.1.245 pc:192.168.1.240 (I have set the ipv4 settings with ip address that i wrote subnet mask:255.255.255.0 and default gateway: 192.168.1.1) local network: 192.168.1.1 I want a start stop switch as an example and a warning light so that i get to know how the communication works as it is not working currently I have done the communication through modbus tcp/ip as client but unable to do for modbus tcp/ip as server. the ladder logic code is as follows. the addresses for y80, y81 and y82 are , QY128, QY129 and QY130 I have done some settings for automatic communication parameters that are as follows The auto refresh settings are as follows or the factory IO i have created the following environment the settings for driver configuration is as follows Can you let me know whats the issue here as i am unable to communicate via the factory IO with the PLC . Can you guide me in any way?

Hello guys, I have an application with a Delta PLC (slave), Load cell module and Delta HMI. The problem is that the Delta PLC has to report to the already existing platform of Siemens S7 PLC (Master) with Profibus. The Master (Siemens) writes and reads data from the Delta PLC. The question is, how can I set up the Profibus communication? Are there any documentations about the Memory Mapping, configuration etc. There are some modules for Profibus Slave from Delta but I cannot find any references or anything. Thanks in advance.

Is it possible to use FX3U-485ADP-MB as a serial port to send and receive user defined string/data to and from a computer? I have a FX3U-32M PLC and two FX3U-485ADP-MB adapters. I have been using PLC with one adapter as Modbus Master. Now i want to use both adapters, where one will be Modbus Master as usual and the other I want to use to send and receive data to and from computer terminal (Example - Realterm). I have a third party 232/485 converter which works really well. Lets me just describe my requirement straight forward. I want to display process parameters on a windows computer based user interface (UI) and also set some variables in PLC from the same UI. The UI has access to serial ports of computer.

Hello I have a scenario that's been bugging me for some time now. The scenario consists of a Micrologix 1400 that I need to control it's output from modbus/tcp. In detail what I really need is to be able to manipulate the O0:0 through modbus/tcp. The PLC would be the master and I would be the slave that triggers the connection to the master. I'm using a Modbus-Client on my PC and that should be the slave. Any idea as to how I can manage that? Currently I can send data to the master but everything is "stored" on B10 and I have no idea how I could write directly on O0. Thanks a bunch guys. PS: I'm borderline noob.

Wanting to write to Balluff Smart Lights via IO Link Master IP #BNI EIP-502-105-Z015. I can find lots of literature on setting up the communication via E/IP in RSLogix 5000 but haven't located anything with Machine edition for writing the data over IP. I am utilizing an Rx3i platform with IC695CPU315 and IC695ETM001 for network access
