[. . . ] And FA Communications Software can be used to access PLC data by using only tag names to enable more flexible and higher-speed access of PLC data from personal computers, and that lowers costs by eliminating the need for a special board for data links. Simultaneous Upgrade for All OMRON FA Communications Software Application Two types of access are supported. CX-Compolet, etc. NEW Tag access Tag access Virtual PLC memory Personal computers become nodes on EtherNet/IP data links just like PLCs. Flexibility You can easily handle changes to specifications. Data links NEW High-speed, large-capacity data links are possible. SYSMAC CJ2 SYSMAC CJ2 FA Communications Software System Applications Device-embedded Applications Product Positioning SYSMAC Gateway SYSMAC Gateway can be used as the communications driver on most networks. It is the successor to FinsGateway and has inherited all FinsGateway functionality. Access to collected data in personal computers High-speed access Personal computer EtherNet/IP CX-Compolet (formerly SYSMAC Compolet) Easy PLC Data Reading and Writing with VB. NET and VC#. NET Control Objects As-needed access to PLCs on networks Easy No special Board required. NEW Reduced costs and greater communications capacity. CX-Compolet CX-Compolet software enables easily reading and writing PLC data using Visual Basic. NET and Visual C#. NET. [. . . ] · Notification of data changes is provided immediately, eliminating wasted communications time. Note: USB and Ethernet can also be used for communications. Situation Problem Developing or Modifying PLC Applications Is Too Much Work Solution with SYSMAC Gateway Cyclic data checking is not required. Application Costumers who have created their own communications programs Modifying programs for different networks is a lot of work. A B Networks C Time spent on programming communications can be reduced by absorbing the differences between networks. Application SYSMAC Gateway Application A B C CX-Compolet SYSMAC Gateway Network differences are absorbed. -Insufficient speed. -Insufficient data link capacity. Using EtherNet/IP enables high-speed, large-capacity data links with no need for a special communications board. Large capacity Insufficient speed EtherNet/IP Fast Insufficient capacity Customers who are already using FinsGateway Main SYSMAC Gateway Functions Programming communications to send and receive messages for each node or block of data is too much work. Programming is required for each node or block of data.

Customers who want to standardize personal computer applications Having to modify personal computer applications whenever the PLC memory map is changed is too much work. Personal computer applications must also be modified. For the CJ2 with EtherNet/IP functionality, tag access and tag data links (1) provide freedom from PLC memory maps. 1 Data size per connection Message send function (client) Personal computer applications do not need to be modified. Virtual event memory CIO, Auxiliary (A), Holding (H), Work (W), DM, and EM1 to EM1F Changes to PLC memory map Tag data links are not possible from a C language library. They are possible only with . NET. Even when the PLC memory map is changed. Explicit messages Tag access For the CJ2 (with EtherNet/IP functionality), access by tag name is enabled. Message receive function (server) Data size CIP routing 1 502 bytes Not supported. The RPIs that can be set depend on the number of connections. 4 5 CX-Compolet Easily Create Programming to Read and Write PLC Data using VB or VC#. Software Configuration System Configuration Examples CX-Compolet can access the PLCs in all of the following configurations. CX-Compolet CX-Compolet CX-Compolet . NET Control Objects ActiveX Control Objects are also included. CX-Compolet is a package of software components that make it easy to program reading and writing OMRON PLC data. Read and write I/O memory in the PLC, change the operating mode, read error logs, and perform other operations. For the CJ2 with EtherNet/IP functionality, I/O memory in the PLC can be accessed by using tag names rather than addresses. NEW Array variable access is possible.

Communications are also possible with PLCs other than those shown here. For details, refer to page 8. Easily Program Device Alarm Monitoring. Using the control components provided by CX-Compolet frees the application designers from having to program the communications portions of the application. Data for device alarms and other data are sent to the applications using non-solicited EtherNet/IP communications events. Standardization is made easy by specifying data using tag names (such as "Alarm A" and "Alarm B") in the applications. SYSMAC PLC Situation Problem Creating and Modifying VB/VC# Communications Programming Is Too Much Work Solution with CX-Compolet Having to program communications frame assembly, reception response interpretation, and monitoring is too much work. Having to change communications processing, e. g. , for Ethernet and serial communications, is too much work. For a block of data of the same data type, it is too much work to have to specify the addresses one by one rather than being able to view them as one group and access that data as an element.
