FS-8704-16 Omron FINS Manual 1. Page 1 of 37 Omron FINS Description The Ethernet Omron FINS driver allows the FieldServer to transfer data to and from devices over Ethernet using Omron FINS protocol. The FieldServer can emulate either a Server or Client. FINS is an Omron protocol which can be used by a PLC program to transfer data and perform other services with a remote PLC connected on an Ethernet Network.

Configure the PLC according to manufacturer’s instructions to work with other FINS supported device. 1.03 Hardware Connection Tips / Hints If communication doesn’t start check the following. 1. Are the FieldServer and PLC on the same network? 2. Are all intended Nodes configured to communicate on FINS? 3.

Is the Network healthy? 1.04 Example of Omron PLC Configuration using Omron ETN11 Module.1 Setting the Node Number With the FINS communications service, when there are multiple Ethernet Units connected to the Ethernet network, the Ethernet Units are identified by node numbers. Use the node number switches to set the node number between 01 and 7E hexadecimal (1 to 126 decimal).
PAGE 8
FS-8704-16 Omron FINS Manual Page 5 of 37 The switches are all factory-set to 0 (00.00.00.00). The Ethernet Unit cannot be used with this setting; a proper IP address must be set. The following settings cannot be made for the IP address, or the ERC indicator will flash. All bits in the network number field set to 0 or 1. All bits in the host number field set to 0 or 1. All bits in the subnet number field set to 1. The beginning of the IP address set to 127 (7F Hex) Example: 127.35.21.16 Note 1.

FS-8704-16 Omron FINS Manual 4.1.4. Page 11 of 37 Map Descriptor Example 1 – IO Read This example provides all the required information to read and write to the IO memory area of the PLC. The following Map Descriptor creates a task for the driver to read the first 20 Words from the CIO memory area and store them in the Data Array DA_CIO. The first word from the PLC will be stored as the first element in the Data Array.
PAGE 15
FS-8704-16 Omron FINS Manual 4.1.5. Page 12 of 37 Map Descriptor Example 2 – IO Write This example is used to write a value(s) to the PLC. The write is done when the contents of the Data Array are updated (written to by a remote device.). In the previous example, it was shown how a ‘read’ Map Descriptor can also be used to write by using FIeldServer’s Write-Through technology. Map_Descriptor_Name, CMD_CIOw, One of the Data Arrays declared in the Data_Array section (See section 1.

The probable cause and corrections for each error code are also given. Depending on the command, the destination code will sometimes make a request of another node on a network. The other node is referred to as the third Node.

The maximum length of a UDP fragment is 1500 bytes. Thus, if you wanted to read 730 words of PLC memory you will need to configure two MD’s. The one should have a length of 729 and the other a length of 1.
