HOST-LINK communication driver is the driver to communicate with PLC of OMRON Corporation in Japan.
<Figure 1> is read setting example of HOST-LINK communication driver.
<Figure 1> Read setting example of HOST-LINK communication driver |
Device part of <Figure 1> input Com Port(COM1), Baud Rate(9600), Parity Bit(2), Data Bit(7), Stop Bit(2) respectively, according to setting of PLC.
HOST-LINK communication driver read schedule
Read schedule setting parameters are as follows:
1) Unit number – 0 ~ 31 PLC unit number.
2) Read memory type – memory type = IR, HR, AR, LR, DM, PV, ...
3) Read start address – read start address in memory type.
4) Save start address for Communication Server – Saving start address of Communication Server.
5) Read size – word unit read size.
Read schedule example)
READ, 0, IR, 0, 0, 10,
READ, 0, HR, 0, 10, 10,
READ, 0, AR, 0, 20, 10,
READ, 0, LR, 0, 30, 10,
READ, 0, DM, 0, 40, 10,
READ, 0, PV, 0, 50, 10,
You can set OMRON PLC by using 'write settings'.
Note) You can write only 'Monitoring' mode. ( can't write when 'Run' mode )
Digital Write
Dgital write setting parameters are as follows:
1) PORT Port no. (0 ~ 255)
2) STATION 0 ~ 31 PLC unit number.
3) ADDRESS writing address in memory type.
4) Extra1 writte memory type = IR, HR, AR, LR, DM, PV, STAT.
5) Extra2 don't care.
Write example 1)
PORT:0, station:1, ADDRESS:0003, Extra1:HR, Extra2 : 0
The setting parameter shown above is bit write control( On/Off ) example for 0 word, 3 bit of HR memory.
Analog Write
Analog write setting parameters are as follows:
1) PORT Port no. (0 ~ 255)
2) STATION 0 ~ 31 PLC unit number.
3) ADDRESS writing address in memory type.
4) Extra1 writte memory type = IR, HR, AR, LR, DM, PV, STAT.
5) Extra2 don't care.
Write example 1)
PORT:0, station:1, ADDRESS:0015, Extra1:IR, Extra2 : 0
The setting parameter shown above is word write example for 15 word of IR memory.
Notes of DIP switch setting
Please set 'ON - RS232:Fixed Setting' when communiting RS-232C for C200HS model.
