Page 147: 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 148 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 254 IP address: 0.0.0.0 to 255.255.255.255 UDP port number 1 to 65535, default is 9600.
Page 149 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 150 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 151 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).
