Hello, I’m looking for some advice about getting our PLCs to remotely communicate with my office PC.
Our PLCs are types FX3U and FX2N.
Can you advise on the best module to add to each PLC to allow them to communicate with the PC?
Is there a program I can install on my computer that will work with the data from the PLCs in a user-friendly way?
It’s a big ask I am sure but I am looking for a program that will log all the PLCs’ alarms in a database and automatically send SMS/emails to the appropriate staff when alarms go off.
The PLCs have been running for years but we’re new to the idea of communicating with them and saving data etc. Any advice about hardware/software/how you would do it etc would be gratefully received.
