This chapter contains information on configuring the communication between device and HMI.

General Procedure

During configuring communication in PIStudio. The following components and conditions is indeed at least.

• One PI HMI
• One connected controller (for example PLC)
• One Cable Wiring

User need to select controller protocol and set communication parameters in HMI project. Please note to set same communication parameter between controller and HMI project. After finishing project, user could download HMI project into HMI and connect HMI with controller by Cable Wiring. Thena simple automation system would be established.

Communication Settings

For example, controller is WECON LX3V series PLC and HMI is PI8070. Please set communication protocol, and set communication parameters in the [Communication].

Timeout

The follwoing are description for the timeout settings from [Communication].

• Wait Timeout(ms): The time HMI waits for a response from the PLC.
• Receive Timeout(ms): The longest waiting interval between the HMI receiving two characters.
• Retry Count: The number of retries when there is no response in the communication between HMI and PLC.
• Retry Timeout(s): The PLC will not be accessed during the Retry Timeout period when there is no response in the communication between HMI and PLC.
• Delay Time(ms): The speed at which the HMI communicates with the device.
• Continuous Length: Default value 0 means the maximum length specified by each protocol. Addresses dealt by Maximum Span settings, its read length for single time, if the Continouous Length is 1, which means it will read/write the every register one by one. If the length of Maximum Span is greater than or equal to the Continuous Length, the continuous read/write will be performed in groups according to Continuous Length.
• Maximum Span:  Set the interval for reading PLC addresses. If there exists two same register type addresses, their interval is less than the set value of Maximum Span, then they will be integrated into a continuous address, otherwise it will be divide into two independent addresses.

Operating Procedure

After creating the [Quick_Start] project,select the [Project]->[Communication].

Click “Setting” to open protocol setting windows.

Select communication protocol, users could select serial port, Ethernet port, CAN port or USB.

• Serial port:

• Ethernet port:

• CAN port (In COM1):

• USB port:

About parameters for communication, PLC default communication parameters have been written to PIStudio, the user can adjust them according to the actual situation.

• Serial port:

• Ethernet port

Please note, during using Ethernet port, please set HMI IP in [Project Setting], the detailed, please refer to [Project Setting] chapter.

Click [OK] button to save settings and close the dialog;

General

HMI could communicate with PLC and support many PLC protocols.  It is easy to operate and set communication parameters. This demo shows how to make a communication with PLC device, use WECON LX3V Series PLC as an example.

Protocol settings

The communication between two devices requires a protocol. The following contents show the steps of protocol settings.

Please select the protocol, when creating a new project.

1. Select the COM port for communication;
2. PLC type: It means PLC brand, like WECON;
3. PLC model: It shows the model of PLC, such as LX3V;

Modbus Meter

The following example is using the Linfee meter LNF96EY to demonstrate how to set up the Modbus communication.

1. Wiring the RS485 cable first. Because the pin 58 is A, the pin 59 is B for meter. Here we use the COM1 to connect. So the diagram like follows:

2. Check the specific Modbus parameter in the communication menu from LED display.

So from the following pictures, we can know the Meter Address is 85, Baud rate is 9600, CRC None.

3. Create new project and change the Communication settings.

Set the protocol as MODBUS RTU Slave (All Function), set Device No. as 85. And COM port setting as 9600, 1, 8, NONE.

4. Drag the numeric input into screen, and fill in the Modbus Address we want to read according to manual

The following table is intercept part of the manual for Linfee Modbus manual.

0x03/0x04 command data register address:

For example, here we want to read the Phase Voltage Ua (Modbus offset 0006), the Address No. requires input decimal number, and check whether the actual address has one address offset, so the address set like the following screenshot:

Set the Read-Write type for address, because meter only to measuring the data, so set it as read-only, and floating data format.

Then download into HMI, if the HMI COM led is blinking and no timeout message show, which means the communication is setup successfully.

MODBUS TCP Slave (All function)

Supported series: MODBUS TCP controller

Note: Although the protocol selected for the HMI is MODBUS TCP Slave, the HMI is working as a MODBUS TCP Master connected to TCP SLAVE.

✎Note: The communication settings for HMI should be consistent with this setting.

Cable Wiring

✎Note:

• COM3 only available in PI8000/PI9000 series.
• CA address could not support continuous writing function；
• Because of CP address intrinsic property: read control intrinsic property, so please place the character input part in use. Set address with CP0 and character length 10, used to display controller type. And place a number input part, set address with CP5 (cache size). Do not place other CP type address without CP0 in screen, otherwise CP type address is invalid
• When set value into read & write address, it is necessary to switch the temperature instrument meter to the corresponding interface according to the menu of the instrument where the address locates, so that the value could be written, otherwise, the value could not be written; When the communication write setting of the instrument is turned off, the writing function is invalid. Writing function could be opened by using the 00 address of the CA register, which write 01 value.
• When continuous writing of a value to a read-write address, please make sure all continuous writing address could be written. Otherwise, if one of these addresses could not be written, then all continuous writing commands will fail.
• Because of the mechanism problem, this protocol could not support CompoWay/F function that is read-write function of variables in protocol document.
• When using double-word address, set the data format to 32 bits, otherwise the read/write function is unable.
• Please set the communication delay time of 10ms in setting, to avoid that the instrument may not be able to communicate in a short time due to too fast data access and too much connection requests.
• Because of the particularity of the instrument, it is necessary to write the value of the address in the menu interface corresponding to the address, and to enter the menu where the address locates, so that the value could be written.

The operational address is determined by the connection of Allen-Bradley PLC to HMI. For extension modules or other special conditions, refer to allen-Bradley PLC instruction manual. The following is an example of allen-bradley MicroLogix1200.

• Bit address I: The address ranges from 0.0 to 255.15. The value of the data before the decimal point ranges from 0 to 255 (decimal). The value from 0 to 15 after the decimal point is the sub address (decimal).
• Bit address B: The address ranges from 000.0 to fff.15. The first f from left to right represents the block number (hexadecimal); The second and third f from left to right represent the word address (hexadecimal). The value 0 to 15 after the decimal point reprensents the sub address (decimal).
• Word address S: The word address ranges from 0 to 255 (decimal).
• Word address TS: The address ranges from 000.0 to ffff. The first and second f from left to right represents the block number (hexadecimal); The third and fourth f from left to right represent the word address (hexadecimal). 

✎Note: Register address TP, CS, CP, N, F and TS address edit are same. D indicates decimal, and F indicates hexadecimal. Different PLC models may support different registers. See the following table.
