Omron CP1E Ethernet (TCP/IP) communication

[karthiknd7]

Hi,

I need to communicate omron CP1E PLC with SCADA to get the status of the machine. There is no etherent port available but an empty expansion slot is available in the PLC.

In the manual, it is mentioned that "cp1w-cif41" Ethernet expansion module can be used for FINS/TCP communication.

My concern is, if i purchase this add-on module and install in the PLC, is it possible to communicate PLC with the SCADA via TCP/IP to monitor the data's of the PLC.

Note: using Ignition SCADA doesnt have FINS/TCP. It has only TCP driver and Omron NJ driver.

Kindly suggest. Thanks in advance

What version of Ignition are you using? As of version 8.08 Omron FINS/Tcp and FINS/Udp has been available.
