This Driver supports the communication between the Xpanel and RF Temperature Measurement Sensor.
| Communication Setup: Xpanel |
Create a new device | Select Tool -> I/O Device or click on the I/O Device Name To designate an I/O 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. Station No. can be 1 to 15. | ||
Station Name | To 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. | ||
Using Checksum | Use a CheckSum in the communication protocol. | ||
Comm. Error Message Pop Up | Use a pop-up message when a communication error occurs. |
| Address & Function Codes |
How to designate a Comm. Address is shown below.
Address Format | Address | Description | Data Type | In Bit Type | Access |
