(1) Characteristics & Technical Parameters
FX Series PLC refers to FX0/FX0S/FX0N/FX1N/FX2N/FX3U/FX3G ... .... .
Notice:when the FS-ETH-SC09 is used to communicate between the PC and the FX series PLC or between PLC and PLC, it supports the RS422/RS485/RS232 communication which meet UART serial data communication standard. Some field buses such as PROFIBUS, PPI, MPI, CC-Link, PC-Link, etc., although the physical interface is RS485, they do not comply with the UART serial data format, so they do not apply to this product!

(4)The parameters set of FS-ETH-SC09
FS-ETH-SC09 needs to be configured the parameters to work correctly, the configuration parameters including the network parameters, communication protocols, connection, serial port parameters;
(5)GX Developer software setting
Click the main menu "Online \ Transfer Settings" to set the COM port = FS-ETH-SC09 simulated COM port in the VCOMM virtual serial port software , the transmission speed = 9.6Kbps. Then you can use as the traditional SC-09 programming cable, and you can upload, download and compare the program data
(6)The usage in the LAN
The FS-ETH-SC09 communication in the LAN needs to ensure that PC, FS-ETH-SC09 and routers have the same gateway, The gateway: 192.168.1.1, the computer IP address: 192.168.1.108, FS-ETH-SC09 IP address: 192.168.1.250 in the following examples.
1. The communication between the PC and a FX in the LAN
Owing to space is limited, please login the company's official website read.
Of course you can use FS-ETH-SC09 to simulate each PLC as a COM port on the PC in order to achieve the data communication and monitoring operation between PC and multiple PLC s
(2)The communication among the PC and multiple FXs
There is a kind interface board with wide range of applications in Mitsubishi FX series PLC : FX1N-485-BD, FX2N-485-BD, FX3U-485-BD, FX3G-485-BD, all is called as FXxx-485-BD.
Owing to space is limited, please login the company's official website read.(3)The intercommunication among the multiple FXs
FS-ETH-SC09 in the picture need to go through the connection between FXxx-422-BD interface board and the FX series PLC, mainly to facilitate the installation of FS-ETH-SC09, in fact it’s the same as the usage of FXxx-485-BD.
Owing to space is limited, please login the company's official website read.
(7) Remote communication in the internet
FS-ETH-SC09 can achieve the worldwide remote communication through the Internet, it will use the external network IP address of the router, the router external network address is different when the router is started every time, because the router will be randomly assigned to one IP address from the Internet when it ‘s powered every time, so this will result in trouble for remote communication through the Internet,
