The main idea proposed by me is to use the standard SCADA Modbus protocol for connection. That is, by making your own limited Modbus protocol in the PLC, you can allow users to read or write something via SCADA without worrying about the possibility of messing up the settings. In my case user can only set setpoint and read statistic via free SCADA.

It is clear that the direct use of Slave Modbus mode does not have any protection against reading or writing to PLC memory. I haven't tried to do something like password protection, but I think it's possible to run your own exchange Modbus commands using the Protocol FB when starting the PLC. Here are the possible options: - set the password that must be set (writed) by master (using an address that does not exist in the PLC and own "Simulated Modbus" protocol) and put the PLC in full access Slave mode via standard Modbus (and disable "Simulated Modbus" protocol until the next restart of the PLC or the programmed standard modbus write command action - reset the password); - create your "Local simulated Modbus" with a set of available cells for writing or only reading via Protocol FB. I was building "My Modbus" to read a record of User defined Modbus codes in the range 65-72 (Not implemented in PLC). Everything worked without problems, so I think it's easy to create something like this to give write and read access to only specified cells using standard modbus codes or User defined Modbus codes.

Is it CPU-for-Panel present? Panel cannot operate independently. CPU-for-Panel must be plugged into the back of a UniStream® HMI panel. The panel provides the CPU’s power source. The CPU-for-Panel comprises: 1 IO/COM Bus connector for interfacing Uni-I/O™ & Uni-COM™ modules 2 Isolated RS485 and CANbus ports 3 Backup battery

Model # or Siemens product code needed... If Profibus on board https://www.moxa.com/en/spotlight/protocol-gateways/modbus-to-profinet-profibus/index However, many user manuals and forums need to be studied in order to achieve what you want.

Yes, if no power - arm woud drop down. In industrial applications, all motors have high-speed lockout brakes after tripping. The task of the brakes is to keep the robot in an arbitrary position after switching off. The rotation of an arbitrary motor after power trip should be no more than one revolution. If this condition is not fulfilled, the robot says that it has lost the coordinate of the axis in which the brake is faulty. Using servos like you suggest is a cheap solution but I haven't seen one with a brake. This is an increase in weight and additional wires and energy to control the actuator brake.

I have observed communication problems in the V700 controller if the servo or frequency converters are not properly grounded. Also, in this case, connecting the PLC negative power wire to machine ground helped. I cannot predict all the reasons, but in such cases, I have observed that a slight change in the internal program (firmware) of the servo manufacturer can change the state of affairs for the worse. To test this hypothesis, it is necessary to go back to the previous versions of the servo drive from previous working installations.

RGB LED control via a PLC
kratmel replied to Hoops123's topic in ...I have a project...what hardware do I need?
https://muccosignal.com/product/surface-mounting-multicolor-rgb-warning-light/ You can use two PWM PLC output for operate blue and red LED. 1-st start with 100.0% PWM duty on low temperature. Second with 0% on the same condition. Both PWM can be operated by Linearization FBs. Input temperature - outputs PWM setpoints. -
I specifically highlighted statements that are absolutely true. And it was because of such cases that I was able to get almost all type Vision PLCs series for my laboratory (cave). Therefore, the philosophical question is who will need them when I am going to retire.

V200-18-E4XB
kratmel replied to Vidmas30's topic in Vision & Samba PLC + HMI Controllers & VisiLogic Software
Maybe they connect +24VDC power direct to analog input in current mode with 121.5 Ohm inpendance. +-40mA max possible on input. Approx 200mA appear if +24VDC direct connection present = "upset the snap". -
communication-manual-for-variable-frequency-drives-variable-speed-starters-da1-dc1-de0-mn040018en.pdf Please read p.12 for correct setup DC1. Connection parameter can not be changed. You must connect DI1 for operate drive via MODBUS. Please use PC modbus software and Usb-RS485 converter for test connection before try to use Unistream PLC.

V200-18-E4XB
kratmel replied to Vidmas30's topic in Vision & Samba PLC + HMI Controllers & VisiLogic Software
Plese check primary and secondary (power) module boards for damaged (burned) parts. Resisor R1 on secondary board and R105-R117 on primary must be checked. Then try to set jamper to 0-10V mode for all chanel and apply test voltage 1....9V to all analog inputs . Result? If voltage mode operate (you see readout) - you can use 500 Ohm resistor connected to analog voltage input and ACM for convert current 0..20mA to 0..10V -
Ignition.... What it is? Maybe a translation error...

1. Please check subrouting call for used code. 2. Please Find O84 in code if any -( )- coil used for it - S and -R Coil do not operate correctly. 3. Is it IO module connected to V350? It is not possible to simulate IO not connected to PLC. 4. You can go to Info Mode and try to operate Outputs via Info Mode menu - Result?

Yes this UMI config only for Unitronics VFD. You must program ladder code for operate Omron VFD.

In such conditions, the frequency of the signals arriving at the discrete inputs from the absolute encoder is approximately 5000Hz (1/1.2Hz=0.8s 4096/0.8s=5120Hz). The operating frequency of discrete inputs is 100Hz (10ms Response time). Therefore, they will not have time to see rapid code changes in standard mode. It will not be possible to use high-speed inputs because there are only 3 of them in this PLC. The only way out is to try to quickly read standard inputs using interrupts in the PLC. Read about it in the help and experiment with the absolute encoder if you have one available.

I think you need to test your RS232 port. Please found terminal program and set COM port. Try to connect TX and RX pin in RS232 DB9 connector (pin2 connect to pin3). Type any symbol in TX and send it to port - you must see the same symbol in RX menu. If you do not see sended symbol in RX display - your hardware-software configuration is not correct or Ethernet to RS232 adapter is damaged. P.S. Is it this adapter correctly powered?
