EddieWillers thanks for your input, I have not been able to find an interface manual to setup the device other than the little information provided with the SR-610 Read Head. I've decided to use a third party Ethernet/IP converter and see how that goes.

Hi:
I am trying to integrate a Keyence SR-610 2D Scanner using a Keyence N-L1 dedicated communication unit to an Allen Bradley L23E CompactLogix via Ethernet. On the AB side I've added a Generic Ethernet Module for comms, the problem here is that I've been looking for days for the correct...
I'm currently troubleshooting one of my new control systems. This system consists of a Windows 2k Server which acts as Domain Controller and runs the Wonderware InTouch 7.1 Application. The server is connected to 5 Thin Clients, and it also contains 5 Compact Logix PLCs (All connected via...
The system should initialize it's own communication, but doesn't. The PLC doesn't fault or anything, just don't have communication between the PLCs and the Server.
Hi, I've been having problems with my Server/Client based Wonderware (InTouch) application. I'm running 5 THIN Clients of a Windows 2000 Server and connected to 5 AB CompactLogix PLCs. The issue here is I'm getting randomly (every 3 to 4 weeks) a communication fault between HMI and PLC. I can...
Guys thanks for everything, I bought a brand new RS 232 cable and it worked fine. Now I'm really looking into buying that 1747-UIC USB interface to DH485. Again Thanks
Eddie:
I've tried what you suggested but I'm still not getting any results. This seems strange to me since I've downloaded a couple applications to the same terminal in the past. I just want to make sure I'm not leaving out any configuration essentials. Any pointers on this matter, any...
Hello
I've been having problems connecting to my Allen Bradley Versa View CE 1000H recently, whenever I try to configurate the communication settings on RS View ME. I've been getting the Driver failed to Autoconfig COM1: and therefore will not start. I had dowloaded an application before to the...
Hello:
I've been having problems connecting my laptop to a Versa View 1000H. I'm trying to connect via a DF1 cable, however when I try and set up the driver I'm getting a Driver failed to AutoConfig COM1 and therefore will not start. One of my questions is, I'm I supposed to keep RS Linx open...
Hello: I've been having problems connecting to a Panelview 550 we have currently at the plant. I was using a RS232 cable. Then I was told that I needed a Null Modem cable, so I bought the Null Modem adapter for my RS232 and still am unable to connect. How do I set up this Null Modem cable on...
I should have no problem working the input signal since I placed a 16 channel analog current input on my SLC, but the thing I don't know is how to set up the PID to work by using the 4-20 mA input, like I said I have worked it before using Thermocouple signals, but wouldn't know if I could set...
Is it possible to set up my PID in RS Logix 500 for a 4-20 mA input signal. I've done it a couple of times just using thermocouple inputs but know have a 4-20 mA Omega Infrared Thermometer/Transmitter. I'll appreciate any help.
Hello Cesarm:
The programmers platform you might be looking for would be Logicmaster which is a DOS look alike programmers software. You can contact any GE supplier for a copy of this software, however I don't know if you can get a free version online, if you can let me know.
Know about any good free PID design and tunning simulation software? I've heard there are a few running around, at least a demo version but I just haven't been able to find one. I even heard you can even see the temperature control valve acting/regulating in this demo. I'll appreciate any...
