RS-232C |
PLC link connectivity of PLCs made by various other manufacturers is possible via RS-232C/Ethernet.
Typical connection example
Connecting to a network makes it possible to collect and manage various information from displacement and dimensional measurement systems. This allows for the construction of information systems for PLC-based calculations, changeovers, production management, and more.
The following example includes a network-connected displacement/dimensional measurement system.
On-the-spot analysis of measurement data without a PC
The PLC can be used for on-the-spot analysis of measurement data with no need to prepare a PC specifically for analysis. The ability to freely program calculations in the PLC also allows for compound judgments Measured shapes can also be visualized in graphs when using a touch panel.
