Ascii is usually adequate and most commonly used on most PLC platforms, Particularly with barcode applications. I know Mitshibushi can handle it but not familiar with particulars with that platform.

We are already scanning data into one plc what. what we need to do is transfer that data to another plc.

What PLC's are to be connected, CPU-type?
Do you have any communicationscard installed already?
How many data do you have to exchange?
If both PLC are Mitsu ex.Q-system, you could use CC-Link it is a cheap and easy to setup.


Best regards
Dariusch!

You can set up the data-area to read/write in the
Parameter -> Network-Parameter ->se pic
It is almost the same with GX-IEC
