Supported hardware and software

These are the technical specifications for the OMRONFINS Communication Driver.

Supported Hardware and Software

This Communication Driver connects to Omron PLCs on a FINS network, which includes the following devices:

• CS1, CJ1, CJ2, and CP1 series using CS1 mode

• CV, CVM1, and CVM1D series using CV mode

• Any other device that is FINS compatible

For Ethernet communication, CS1 PLCs can use either the FINS – UDP (Ethernet) protocol or the RS-232 protocol. (The specific protocol can be selected in the communication settings.).

For serial communication, CS1 PLCs use a FINS – Host link.

To program CS1 PLCs, you need the CX-Programmer programming software. For more information, go to: http://industrial.omron.eu/en/products/catalogue/automation_systems/software/configuration/cx-one/cx- programmer.html

Note: Connecting to a PLC via ETN is tested and supported. However, connecting via an EIP Ethernet card is not supported.

For a list of supported hardware and firmware versions,refer to the Technology Matrix section of the Global Customer Support (GCS) Site.
