Easy way to connect CX-Programmer to Omron PLC

The first time you connect to Omron PLC, you confuse and don't know how to do?

That: port setting not default and you don't know the parameters.

Resolve in two cases:

Case 1. If port is not use: turn port to default setting (not effect to PLC operation)
  1.1. CPM2A: set the switch beside Hostlink (RS232) port to ON position
  1.2. CQM1/1H, C200Hx: set DIP switch 5 to ON (apply to both peripheral and RS232 port)
    CX-P: set Network Type to SYSWAY (9600,7,2,even)

  1.3. CS1/CJ1: set DIP switch 4 to ON for peripheral port or DIP switch 5 for RS232 port
    CX-P: set Network Type to Toolbus (auto baud-rate)

Case 2. If port is connected to HMI, Host computer or similar device: remove cable to this device and perfom the same case 1

After perfoming, remember set DIP and other to origin position.

In other cases, please contact the expert or me to resolve.

Cheers and good luck!
