Hello Fred; The following extract is from the WinCC Flexible communications manual: SIMATIC HMI WinCC flexible 2008 Communication Part 2 Communication with Omron controllers 7.1 Communication with Omron Hostlink/Multilink 7.1.1 Communication partner (Omron)
Introduction This section describes communication between an HMI device and OMRON controllers of the SYSMAC C, SYSMAC CV, SYSMAC CS1, SYSMAC alpha, and CP series. With these PLCs, the PLC's own protocol SYSMAC Way (Hostlink/Multilink protocol) is used for the connection.
Released communication types The connection of an HMI device to an OMRON CPU of the OMRON SYSMAC C (not CQM CPU11/ 21), SYSMAC CV, SYSMAC CS1, and SYSMAC alpha series using the Hostlink/Multilink protocol over RS232 has been system tested and released by Siemens AG. A multipoint connection to up to 4 OMRON controllers in an RS422 four-wire multidrop configuration can be implemented with communications adapters.
Note The HMI device can only be operated as a master. |

Hello FredMM, You must disable the remote transfer of the channel 1 for communication with omron. You can see it in the following manual on the page 28. SIMATIC HMI WinCC flexible 2008 Communication Part 2 Tweety |

New question published by Tikki is split to a separate thread with the subject Adapter for connecting MP277 (IF1B) to Omron SYSMAC C200HX. Best regards |
