Page 118: Host Types And Settings
Host Types and Settings Units that are used for Ethernet communications vary according to the type and series of OMRON PLC used. When connecting an Ethernet Unit, check the series and type of the PLC that it will be con- nected to and the model of the Unit that is mounted to the PLC.
Page 119 5-1 Connecting to Host Via Ethernet · Host Settings The following settings must be set at the host. Item Host Settings Network number 1 to 127 Conversion table Node number: 1 to 126 IP address: 0.0.0.0 to 255.255.255.255 UDP port number 1 to 65535, default is 9600.
Page 120 5-1 Connecting to Host Via Ethernet IP Address Allocation The IP addresses are allocated so that they are unique for each node in the network (or be- tween two or more networks). If two or more nodes are allocated the same IP address, the remote nodes with the same IP address will also malfunction.
Page 121 5-1 Connecting to Host Via Ethernet Address Conversion (when Using FINS Communications Service Only) When using the FINS communications service, nodes must be specified following the FINS addressing system. Data that is transmitted on the Ethernet network using FINS communica- tions, however, must follow the IP address format.
Page 122 5-1 Connecting to Host Via Ethernet IP Address Table Method Whereas the automatic generation method obtains the IP address from the FINS node num- ber, the IP address table method converts the FINS node number to the IP address based on a preset conversion table (IP address table).

Page 125 5-1 Connecting to Host Via Ethernet · When using automatic generation (default method) for converting addresses, set the Reference same value for the node number as that set for SW7 and SW8, and set the other host ID fields to 0. The ERC indicator will flash if the value of the IP address host ID does not correspond to the node number value.
Page 126 5-1 Connecting to Host Via Ethernet · CJ-series PLCs · Always turn OFF the power to the PLC before setting the rotary switches. Note · Create I/O tables for the CPU Unit when setting the unit number for the first time or chang- ing settings.
Page 127 5-1 Connecting to Host Via Ethernet Setting Local IP Addresses For CJ-series Ethernet Units, set the local IP address from the CX-Programmer or other Support Software for the CPU Unit. Refer to the SYSMAC CS/CJ Series Ethernet Unit Op- eration Manual (W343) for details on setting methods. CJ1W-ETN11 This is the connector used to connect the twisted-pair cable to the Ethernet.

6-10 Starting Operations 6-10 Starting Operations The host and PT connected to it start operating after the project data has finished being transferred and the System Menu settings (communications conditions with the host, etc.) have been completed. Note Start actual operation only after sufficiently checking the operation of the screen data and host programming.
Page 182 6-10 Starting Operations @ Communications Not Established with Host Use the following procedure to check communications if the PT and host are not communi- cating normally. Check the cable models and cable pins. Check cables Refer to Appendix 5 Preparing Connecting Cables. Check the communications settings under the System Menu.

The backlight must be replaced when the brightness of the display backlight dims and the display becomes difficult to see. The backlight cannot be replaced by the user. Contact your nearest OMRON representative. • Backlight Replacement Guidelines Replace the backlight according to the following guidelines under normal conditions.
Page 185 7-1 Maintenance • Replacement Guidelines The guidelines for replacing the battery are as follows: • Replace when five years have lapsed since a new battery was installed in the Unit. • Replace within five days after the RUN indicator lights orange. Note Never use batteries that have been subjected to a severe shock, such as being dropped on the ground.
Page 186 7-1 Maintenance 4. Connect the new battery connector, and insert the battery into the battery holder. 5. Close the battery cover, being careful not to squash the battery cable.
