Hello,
I am building an application in CitectSCADA and I want to communicate with an Omron Sysmac CS1G. The connection between the plc and the Citect computer is through an ethernet to serial adapter (the computer doesn't have com ports on board).
I'm having some difficulty establishing the communication and I want to make sure that I can actually reach the plc.
Is there a way to check that the computer can reach the plc over the serial connection without using CX programmer? Maybe using Hyper Terminal, Putty or something similar.

Thank you,
Liron
 
Go to your local Omron website.
You need to download the W143 manual.
There is a sample computer program to communicate Host Link protocol to the plc.
