Arlindo Silva Posted October 26, 2018 Report Share Posted October 26, 2018 Hello, I write from Portugal, sorry if my english don´t is the best. I have a problem, i have a GE Cimplicity Scada for automation control. Now, i buy a Unitronics HMI + PLC for automate a litle pumps and flow meters but have a problem, I have the plc connected to GPRS modem and comunicate to SCADA SERVER via VPN. The protocol is MODBUS comunication and the scada ping's PLC normaly, but dont comunicate between them correct. I load the 40000 + points and the scada read's NOTHING. I need a software or something else for convert the values come from PLC or have a specific "comunication rung" ? Appreciate all answers and helps. Thnxs a lot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MVP 2023 Flex727 Posted October 26, 2018 MVP 2023 Report Share Posted October 26, 2018 Assuming you haven't stepped on Socket 2, which defaults to Socket 502/Slave, then you will need a ScanEX FB in the Main Routine. If you have that, then open the Help file and search on MODBUS Slave Addressing to understand how the SCADA needs to address the MODBUS queries. There are also example programs in your VisiLogic installation to show you how to do this. I have used Unitronics PLCs with many SCADA systems, including GE Cimplicity with success.

Thanxs a lot for answer. We make all of steps discribed by you and the communication with PLC stays good and stable. We load 40000+ points and 30000+ in the scada controller, and only see ***.

MVP 2023 Flex727 Posted October 26, 2018 MVP 2023 Report Share Posted October 26, 2018 While there may be someone on this board who can help you, this is a problem for your SCADA administrator and is not a Unitronics problem. If you read the help file I directed you to and are following that advice, then you need to be looking at your SCADA configuration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
