    I tried changing the subnet to 255.255.0.0 and that seems to work now, with all subnets set to that I can ping both controllers from my PC and they are talking over Ethernet/IP. Thank you for your help!!

    Ah, the gateway is what the customer gave me to use on site I put it in without thinking, I can take it out for now. I tried changing the subnet on my PC but can only ping the one that matches the third octet I use in my PC's IP address, I am going through a Phoenix Contact unmanaged switch right now. FL SWITCH SFNB 5TX - Industrial Ethernet Switch

    I tried setting the subnet to 255.255.252.0 but still no luck, I am testing with two CJ2M-CPU33 PLCs I have laying around. I changed the subnet but when I connect with Network Configurator via USB it only sees the PLC it is connected to, I tried connecting to each separately and transferring the network configuration but then I get the Er D5 with the other PLCs IP address.
  4. TigerLily started following NA SD Card Transfer Getting OS Version Mismatch and Are Ethernet/IP Communications possible when the devices are on different networks?

    There is a function block in Sysmac you can use to reset PLC errors called "ResetPLCError", we use that and the function block "ResetNXBError" and have it tied to a reset button on our HMI. For EtherCAT errors use the FB "ResetECError"

    Hello, I have a project I am working on that requires a CJ2M-CPU34 to communicate with a NX-EIC202 remote IO rack over Ethernet/IP. The PLC has been in the field several years, it has the IP Address 10.128.207.122. The customer assigned the new remote IO an IP address of 10.128.208.201. I thought if I changed the subnet of the two devices to 255.255.254.0 they would be able to communicate but so far I am not having any luck. Has anyone successfully done something like this? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

    Just in case anyone ever needs this information, they are. The issue seemed to be my laptop. I was able to load the Ethernet IP configuration with a USB cable.

    I am starting up equipment at a customer site, we sell sets of equipment, there are 4 pieces in each set with 4 separate controllers, each with a CJ1W-EIP21 card. The 4 systems communicate with each other over Ethernet/IP to control our process. The customer at this site has also requested to monitor our equipment using FINS via the same Ethernet card, but when I changed the settings in my card for their network it seems I lost my Ethernet/IP communications. The only changes I made were to set the Conversion to IP address table on the FINS/UDP tab and to add two nodes to the IP address table, I also created a routing table with CX-Integrator...could this have broken my Ethernet/IP communications and is there a way to get it back? Thank you!!!!

    Hello, we ended up using Ethernet/IP for our communications on the project I had back in 2015, so we installed the Keyence .eds file in Network Configurator for Ethernet-IP and then set up the tag communication between the Omron and Keyence that way.

    Hello, I am trying to use a PID loop to correct a concentration reading that can be too high or too low. I want to add or subtract my MV from my current device set point and that will correct the concentration. I have never used a PID loop in this way and it is not working like I had hoped, currently I am flipping the PID direction between forward and reverse depending on the direction I need it to go and then subtracting or adding the MV from the current set point. Has anyone achieved similar PID control and if so could you please offer me some tips on the best way to do this? Thank you!!

    Hello! We are looking to find a replacement for our Omron NS Screens in what seems like about 20 systems...there are so many third party/other vendor options available, I am honestly overwhelmed, so I thought maybe some of you had great experience with other vendors screens that I could look into using in our equipment. The screen will have to communicate with an Omron CJ PLC, serial or Ethernet is fine, Ethernet is preferred. Would also prefer screens that actually have Omron drivers. Thank you!!

    @kckku that is the exact problem we have, my Sysmac disc is from 2016 and our customer is in China with no access to Sysmac Studio. I had to download a current ISO of the latest Sysmac Studio software to get the files I needed, but I think we should be all set now that we have them! I will just try to get a copy of the most current ISO when there is a revision so we are prepared. Thank you to everyone!!

    Ok, so I have had the chance to contact tech support at Omron and I have to update the OS in the screen because Sysmac has updated since this system shipped several years ago...so even though my screen is old and I never changed the version I guess the OS needs to be updated to be compatible with the changes in Sysmac (my assumption). Now I am having trouble finding the NA_RecoverUpdate_7_4_0.exe file that I need to update the HMI via the SD card. The manual excerpt is attached along with the full instructions in case anyone else ever needs them, but it sounds like it wants me to use the original installation disc, that does not make sense to me since our software disc is at least 6 years old so this OS wouldn't exist yet! Does anyone know where these recovery files are available? System_Recovery_Instructions.pdf

    Thank you for that chart, it is quite confusing, I could not agree more!! My Sysmac studio is version 1.44, the program loaded on that screen is runtime version 1.10 which matches the program version that this program is set to but according to the chart it wants the version to be set to 1.12? I will try to set it to 1.12 and see if that works, thank you for your help!!!

    This is not an NS screen but an NA, so it is using the new Sysmac software. As far as I can tell in the Sysmac software there is no version 7.4, the highest my software goes is Version 1.14, so I really am not sure what this message is referring to.
