Hello, I’m trying to connect my wago plc to weintek operators panel. Could someone give me any advices on how to establish communication? I thought about modbus but I’m not 100% sure how to do it.
-
Add both an Ethernet Adapter and ModbusTCP Slave device to your project.
-
In the Ethernet adapter, set your Network Interface on the General page.
-
In the ModbusTCP Slave, enter your desired number of Holding Registers and Input Registers and what Modbus addresses you want them to start at.
-
Then go to the IO Mapping area and you can now assign PLC variables to those Modbus Registers you just defined.
Those variables will now to be available to the HMI via Modbus.
Okey. All done now how can i connect the plc to hmi? I got everytching on switch, ip of both devices are set as they should be and now is the question what do i do next?
Sorry, I can’t help with the Weintek side of things at all. I’m not familiar enough with their hardware or software.
Setup the WAGO PLC in System parameters. Match the setup in your PLC I am using 192.168.50.10 that is my IP address. Port 512 is the port set in my WAGO PLC.
You will have to create your data tags in your library. The register 40020 would be address mode word, address type 4x 16 bit unsigned address 20.
Hope this helps!
