Add a Keyence IV3-G120 via Ethernet

Posted By Peter - PSA1 May 15, 2024 02:00:00 PM
Found In Egroup: Automation Control \ view thread
Hello, I have an existing Studio 5k project that I need to add a Keyence IV3-G120 Camera Controller to the Ethernet/IP Network. I have the EDS file from Keyence but I cannot find the recommended module type. I started with a 'Generic Ethernet Module' but I do not have the connection parameters to ...

The only module I have in stock is 1734-IB8, where I did find that, thank you. Also, in the 1734-IB2/IB4/IB8 manual/specification the Key Switch Position is called out. However, the 1734-OB2/OB4/OB8 specification (I found) does not call out the Key Switch Position. ------------------------------ Peter ...

Hello, I am in the process of creating an internal reference document that lists out what I feel are the most significant specifications for system design. Across all of the brands I use. I am having trouble finding 'Keyswitch Positions' for POINT IO Modules in Literature Library. Does anyone else have ...

I am trying to test some basic programming in the Micro800 Simulator of Connected Components Workbench V21.01.00 to avoid having a 'spare Micro800' to test with. I have changed my controller to the required 2080-LC50-48QWB-SIM but I cannot change the IP in order to download my program as the tutorials ...

RE: CCW MOV expecting Bool

Thomas, I have not found a way to use each bit of a DINT, INT, or SINT as a BOOL in CCW. While converting ANY_TO_BOOL sounds correct, it will actually convert positive value to TRUE and 0 to FALSE. I would recommend this... setup a global/local variables that are BOOL's with a dimension of [0..#] whatever ...

Update... I have now received and installed the 2080-TC2 Modules into the same PLC on the same machine. Wired to the recommended terminals using 'J-Type' Thermocouples. I am receiving the same results. When heat is applied there is no reaction to the added heat. ------------------------------ Peter ...

Actually what you sent previously works perfectly for my application. Different alarms get a different timed pulse based on urgency. Thanks again. ------------------------------ Peter Sherick P Squared Automation, ltd. ------------------------------

Thank you sir. That was exactly what I was looking for. I have done this in Studio by monitoring bits within the timer's elapsed time but CCW doesn't have that functionality. Too much time in Studio, I got away from the basics. Thanks again. ------------------------------ Peter Sherick P Squared ...

It may seem pretty straight forward to some but I am having trouble. I would like to use a timer with a PT of 250ms to make a light blink every 250ms. The same for 500ms and 1000ms.

At this point my Thermocouple reads as below... At this time of the screenshot my Fluke Meter Reads 60.1 C. My process needs to maintain approx. 105-125 C.

Alright, I have found the Temperature Conversion Data (here). My current temperature reading is almost exactly 10 degrees F higher than the actual. My shop temperature is 78 F and you can see I am reading 88 F with my thermocouple. I also have a Fluke 87V Meter Temperature reading of 23.4 C (74.12 ...

Fuzzy/Philip, It is now working as it should. The Input side issues were mostly contributed to the DIP Switch settings below. SW1 (8 Bank), dip switch #2 enables diagnostic reporting from the EX600. The Output side was contributed to improper wiring on my part. I did not supply output power for ...
