10.Main program: Write the following ladder in L
The SEE function allows you to reference programs at the second level.
c_plc_0777

 

11.Second floor program: Write the following ladder in L01 (MSG-RCV)
c_plc_0778

 

12.Compiling the program
Select the main program: L, and then choose "Compile all programs" from the Compile menu.
c_plc_0779
 

13.Check the message to see if the compilation was successful.

14.Select "Write to Controller" from the online menu
c_plc_0781
 

15.Check "System Configuration", "Programs", and "Execute flash save after transfer", then click "Start".
※Please check any other boxes as necessary.
c_plc_0782
 

16.Once writing is completed successfully, turn off the power to the PLC to reflect the settings.
 

 

hint

The setting on the first line of the ladder MSG-RCV must be changed depending on the scan speed.

 

・When using low-speed scan (DWG L): Specify "SB000003==true".

・When using high-speed scan (DWG H), specify "SB000001==true".

 

 

The display format on the ladder will automatically be replaced with the internal function.

 

・Slow scan

Error

An error occurred

 

 

 

hint

If there is a problem with the definition of MSG-RCV, an error flag will be set (DB000212 will be ON in the example setting). If you are unable to connect successfully, please check to see if any errors have occurred.

 

If an error occurs, check the value of the parameter storage address (DA00000 (DW00000) in the example setting). The stored value converted to hexadecimal is the error code. Error codes are listed in "Checking the processing results (PARAM00) when using the message receive function (MSV-RCV)" in Yaskawa Electric's "Machine Controller MP2000 Series Communications Module User's Manual."

 

Example: When the line number is set incorrectly (for example, Cir-No should be set to 2 but is set to 1)

・"-31696" is stored in DW00000.

・The error code will be "8430H" in hexadecimal notation.

- When referring to "84xxH" in the manual, it says "Line number setting error: Please check the Cir-No (line number) of the message function", so review the Cir-No setting.

 

 

hint

The ladder setting example in this section is set according to the message reception function (MSG-RCV) in the relevant module (218IF-02 in the example) in Yaskawa Electric's "Machine Controller MP2000 Series Communication Module User's Manual." For details on various settings and ladders, please refer to this manual.
