Hello Experts,

We are currently in the design phase of a system with 24 PLC's. 
CPU is BMXP342020  [ CPU onboard Serial and Ethernet ports, both capable of MODBUS]

Each PLC's are stand-alone and have communication with 9 Modbus RTU slaves. 
Also, each PLC will be connected to OPC at central SCADA room via MODBUS TCP.

Questions: 
Regarding Serial MODBUS RTU
1. CPU onboard RJ45 Serial port can directly make communication with all 9 slaves via multidrop?  Using READ VAR/WRITE VAR function?
2. How many READ VAR/WRITE function can be used simultaneously? 

Regarding MODBUS TCP
1. Which module is required for connecting to OPC?
    BMX NOC 0401  or  BMX NOE 0100?
    Can the above two modules be connected to OPC without any programming?  We need to read/write data to each CPU all the time. 

2. Does BMX NOC 0401/BMX NOE 0100 need programming in PLC for communication?

3. Does CPU onboard ethernet port require programming for communicating on MODBUS TCP?

Please guide. 

We have used M580 CPU in 10 projects and all the time DCS [Client] can read/write data with M580[server] without any programming. But we used CPU onboard port or BME NOC
0301.2

So does that sounds similar to BMX NOC 0401/BMX NOE 0100

Thanks in advance

Dear All,

 I'm new to programming with Schneider. I've a Logic Controller TM200CE40R and software SoMAchine Basic V1.4 EL, now I'll have to calibrate an input signal from a pressure sensor signal of (0---->20mA), how could I do that. Also, I'll give an output signal (0----> 10V) to a Speed drive.

Thanks

Please could you assist with the software required to download data tables from 4 off DIRIS A10 Multifunction Meters into TM221CE40R Logic Controller via TMC2SL1 Comms Cartridge using Modbus Protocol over RS485. I have downloaded the Modbus tables from Socomec but not sure how to get these into the PLC. I would really appreciate your help in achieving this.

I am using EcoStruxure Machine Expert - Basic to program the PLC & DAQ Factory Developer Release for my Touchscreen.

Hi guys, I have an M221 and trying to read process data from a HACH controller via Modbus 485.

In the Read_Var function block I need to configure ObjType, FirstObj, Quantity and IndexData. Slave ID is 3 and I am using SL2.

So, say if I wanted to read to following registers,

Register #40001, Data Type Integer, Length 1, Description- Sensor Measure

Register #40005, Data Type Float, Length 2, Description - Sensor Temp

Register #40007, Data Type String, Length 6, Description - Sensor Name

what do I put into the Read_Var function ?

I am completely new to this and it's just not clear to me.

Thanks

John

Hello, everybody!

Need help. We have TWDLCAE40DRF with password secured config. When I tried to download config from PLC to Laptop, I have made PLC stopped with TwidoSuite. And this is a problem! I found out that trying to unlock password is wasted time. But config is good and working, and now my task is to run PLC. TwidoSuite doesn't allow to run it.

How do you think, is it possible to run protected PLC using display TWDXCPODC (we are have not this one yet)??   Or maybe there are another ways to run it?

Dear All, I have the RTU module made by Schneider (BMX NOR 0200H), this is M340 PLC family, which is will be used for connected to other RTU using IEC101 protocol via RS232 serial port. Any body can give advice to me how to do mapping the modbus register to IEC101 protocol ? Please. I already try step by step based on the NOR0200H MODULE USER MANUAL, but I have not get result. Thks

Hello!
I am new at PLC programming. I am using TM221CE16R PLC with TM3AI8 analog input module and SoMachine Basic v1.6. I am trying to scale analog input value. I am using 4-20 mA pressure sensor. I managed my wiring so that I get raw values in SoMachine Basic. But I don't know how to scale these values to usable values. My sensor works in range 0 - 16 bar. What is best way to get values? Is it PID function block or multioperand function block using equations to get range 0 - 16?

I will appreciate your help.

 

Thanks in advance!

Hello,
Do you know what is the difference between the PID controllers PIDFF, PID1 and PIDP1 in a Schneider PLC?
I have to modify a PLC program with a new standard of coding. The new standard use a PIDFF function bloc.
If I change a PID1 bloc for a PIDFF bloc, can I use the same parameters Kp, Ti, Td?
If I change a PIDP1 for a PIDFF bloc, can I use the parameters Ki and Kd to calculating Ti (ti=1/Ki) and, Td (Td = Kd)?
Thanks you for your help.

Hey!

Im using M221 and a HMISTU855 HMI to control and start several pumps using timers. In soMachine basic there is no tag or word for timers like for example siemens #s5t. I want to show a countdown or remaining minutes and seconds untill the pump stops. Now im showing only minutes remaining by timerword := %tmi.p - tmi.v. I would like to show minutes and seconds.

If I have to write an input on Discrete I/O module on Modicon M340 PLC , I know I can use %I. Now I have to use modbus and read some additional inputs from another device other than the one on the I/O module.How shall I write their addresses on the I/Omodule? Also what is the proper adrdressing format of inputs you want to read through modbus?

I have been trying to configure my Modicon M241 PLC to act as a Modbus TCP slave using the built-in 'ModbusTCP_Slave_Device' option. I am using Radzio Modbus Master as TCP Master Simulator on my PC. Problem is I am able to read and write the Holding registers but not able to read the input registers. The Modbus Master simulator returns the message : 'Modbus Timeout Error'. On sniffing the traffic using WireShark, the PLC Modbus slave seems to reply Illegal Function, error code = 1 in response to a read request made by the master for input registers. Can you guys suggest some solution for this?

Do we need to separately set the read permission for input registers of Modbus TCP map - if so, how?

Hi,

I've been having a problem with my Schneider setup, and I can't seem to figure out the problem. I'm using Machine Expert Logic Builder and Vijeo 6.2, and I can't seem to download to my PLC. I can download to my HMI just fine, but my HMI comes back with the message as mentioned in the title. Also when I perform a full download, machine expert comes up with the message "Could not connect to the device for item "xx", selected target system "PLC name" is different from the connected device "HMI name".

The weirdest thing is that machine expert shows my PLC just fine, but doesn't show my HMI.

I have no idea what to do, as I feel like I've tried everything.

The IP range is fine, subnet is fine. The driver in IO manager in Vijeo has the PLC nodename in it, so that shouldn't be the problem either.

Does anyone know what to do in a situation like this?

Thank you in advance!

Hello!

Im trying to learn how to read files from SD card im M221 controller.

Currently i have set it up to log two analog inputs on a timer.'

I can not fint any way to export, acess or transfer. 

Anyone tried this?
