Obviously, cable is ok. 19 hours ago, dub said: I have twice erased all from PLC (Info mode--->Working mode--->Exit to factory boot) and reinstal all. Strange is that connection is working normal all time untill instalation is not finished. I quote myself. I don1t know how to explan this?

dub Posted April 1, 2018 Report Share Posted April 1, 2018 Screen video. Maybe someone will see something what i am missing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NmMdL_AT0YE&feature=youtu.be Meanwhile, I tried the same thing on the third computer. Connecting via USB cable works only when I delete OS (return to Factory Boot) Unfortunatly, I do not have USB to serial 232 converter.

MVP 2023 Joe Tauser Posted April 1, 2018 MVP 2023 Report Share Posted April 1, 2018 When you have the USB connected to your V1210 open up device manager in Windows and verify which COM port Windows has assigned. It sounds like you've already done this, but double-check anyway. 11 hours ago, dub said: Nothing good so far. I think PLC is the problem. This is possible. I have seen the USB converter port go bad on the PLC while the actual serial port on Port 1 still works. Get an MJ10-22-CS35 serial to USB converter from your friendly distributor and see if that works on Port 1 or Port 2. If you use a converter from another vendor, make sure it has the Prolific PL2303 chipset. Joe T. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dub Posted April 1, 2018 Report Share Posted April 1, 2018 Thanks for advice. I found programming cable for Jazz, Unitronics MJ10-22-CS10 Adapter SUBD9 on RJ12 + USB to serial adapter and now i can connect on PLC, but works only on port 2 . Will i bi able to use port 1 for control VFD over MODBUS RTU protocol, which i am learning now (Expect questions ) DIP switches are in the same position on both ports, RS485.

Cam Posted April 1, 2018 Report Share Posted April 1, 2018 You should be able to sonlong as the con port itself isn’t damaged in any way. The programming cable should allow you to communicate on either port 1 or port 2 on the plc with out changing a setting on the PC just simply unplug from port 2 and plug into port 1(so long as the rs 232 com settings are the same) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Cam has just replied) I read this as you are doing the download and when it should be almost finished, the connection fails. Is this correct? Therefore I think that you are changing a fundamental comms setting within your user progam. Looking at your screenshot of comms shows that ports are set at 485, but by connecting with the correct plug you are then accessing the port as 232. Have a good read of "Communication Ports" in the install manual: V1210-T20BJ_INSTALL-GUIDE_03-141.pdf There are restrictions on how "automatically" this works. cheers, Aus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MVP 2023 Ausman Posted April 1, 2018 MVP 2023 Report Share Posted April 1, 2018 Further to my comment above about fundamental comms settings in your user program, remove all comms type elements from your program as a test. Download and see what happens. cheers, Aus 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Protocols are not the same. Modbus on port 1 and PCOM on port 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, what was with USB? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MVP 2023 Ausman Posted April 1, 2018 MVP 2023 Report Share Posted April 1, 2018 Perhaps you have port numbers confused? Without seeing your program I can't tell. Your exercise (!) is to put the original comms element(s) relating to just one comm setting back into your program and see which lot upsets things. This should point you to your answer. Please let us know! cheers, Aus 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MVP 2023 Joe Tauser Posted April 2, 2018 MVP 2023 Report Share Posted April 2, 2018 Download a blank program, cycle power, and then try the USB port. If you can communicate with the PLC it's OK. If you can't it's not. Joe T. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dub Posted April 2, 2018 Report Share Posted April 2, 2018 Below it's a program who gave me a headache. USB port is working, port 1 and 2 also. And program works fine for now, at least part for setting frequency and start/stop, with Optidrive E2 VFD on port 2. Now i am going on Yaskawa V1000 VFD to try the same. Thank you all for help.
