Create a new device | Select [Tools] → [I/O Devices] or click on the  I/O Device Name: Designate a device name. This will be used in the Station Name and Tag Configuration of the database. | ||
Select a network type
| Device Type: RF Temperature Measurement Sensor If I/O Device Name designation is completed, the ‘Serial Communication Configuration’ window appears as shown below.  Select ‘RF Temperature Measurement Sensor' as the 'Device Type’, and set up the Comm. parameters exactly as the PLC configuration. Comm. parameters must be set up as shown below. See the Communication Configuration section for more information about the remaining parameters. | ||
Parameter | Configuration | ||
Baud Rate | Set to 115,200 (can vary depending on device setting). | ||
Parity | None | ||
Data Bit | 8 Bits | ||
Stop Bit | 1 Bit | ||
Comm. Type | RS232 | ||
Create a station | Go to the [Station] tab of the ‘Serial Communication Configuration’ window. In this dialog box, each connected PLC can be configured and registered to the Xpanel.  | ||
Station Name | Designate a station name. This will be used in the tag database, accompanied by the ‘Device Name’. | ||
Station Type | Select ‘Station Type Temp RF’ (no other option is allowed). | ||
Network ID | N/A | ||
Station No. | The station No. must be the same as the PLC station number (1 - 15). | ||
16Bit Data Swap | This option swaps bytes for all word- or double-word-sized data. The following diagram shows an example of byte-swapping:  Almost all data types will be influenced by this option except INT8 / UINT8 / BCD8 / UBCD8. | ||
32Bit Data Swap | This option swaps words of all double-word-sized data. The following diagram shows an example of word swapping:  Tag values with data types INT32 / UINT32 / BCD32 / UBDC32 / FLOAT will be influenced by this option. | ||
String Data Swap | Swaps the upper and lower bytes of string word data. | ||
Using Checksum | Use a CheckSum in the communication protocol. | ||
Comm. Error Message Pop Up | Use a pop-up message when a communication error occurs. | ||
