Hello Everybody!
as I will have to face project based on Omron PLC and not being very familiar with hardware I would like to ask you for some advises concerning system configuration.
First some facts:
Main and the only rack is filled with CJ2H CPU65-EIP module and 5 x CJ1W-DRM21 for DeviceNet. The first DRM21 module will be connected with Safety DeviceNet with 2 Safety controllers and some Safety IO units on it.
Questions:
1. how to configure DeviceNet networks - using Safety Network Configurator for all 5 networks or maybe just for the first one(Safety network) and rest should be configured via CX-Integrator?
2. how about IO mapping in PLC? How shall be addressing created concerning 5 DeviceNet networks - is auto allocation mode useful in that case? How I will assign addresses for all remote units in PLC program?
3. Symbolic table - is there any way to import addresses with their comments for simple and quicker symbolic list assignment?
That would be all for now
I will appreciate your suggestions!
