GLOFA communication driver

 

GLOFA communication driver is the driver to communicate with GLOFA PLC(232/422/485) of LSIS Co., Ltd.  in Korea.

 

1. Read settings

 

<Figure 1> is read setting example of GLOFA communication driver. 

<Figure 1>  Read setting example of GLOFA communication driver

Device part of  <Figure 1> input Com Port(COM1), Baud Rate(19200), Parity Bit(0), Data Bit(8), Stop Bit(1) respectively according to setting of PLC.

 

GLOFA communication driver read schedule

Read schedule setting parameters are as follows:

1) STATION – PLC station number.

2) Read memory type – Memory type = I(input), Q(output), M(internal memory).

3) Read start address – Read start address in memory.

4) Save Start Address for Communication Server – saveing start address of Communication Server.

5) Read Size – Word unit read size.

6) Rack(Base) number – Rack number when I, Q memory.

7) Slot number – Slot number when I, Q memory.

 

Read schedule example)

READ,   0,   I,  10,   2,  0,  1,

READ,   0,   Q,  20,  2,  1,  0,

READ,   0,   Q,  24,  2,  1,  2,

READ,   0,   M,  30, 16,

 

2. Writing settings

You can control GLOFA PLC by using write settings.

 

Digital Write

Digital write setting parameters are as follows:

1)  PORT                   Port no. (0 ~ 255)

2)  STATION             PLC station number.

3)  ADDRESS          Write address in memory.

4)  Extra1                   Write memory type = Q or M.

5)  Extra2                   Rack number when Q memory type.

 

Write example 1) 

PORT : 0  Station : 1, ADDRESS : 0003, EXTRA1 : Q,  EXTRA2 : 1

The setting parameter shown above is a control(On/Off) example for 1 rack, 3 channel of Q memory type.

 

Analog Write

Analog write setting parameters are as follows:

1)  PORT                   Port no. (0 ~ 255)

2)  STATION             PLC station number.

3)  ADDRESS          Write address in memory.

4)  Extra1                   Write memory type = Q or M.

5)  Extra2                   Rack number when Q memory type.

 

Write example 1) 

PORT : 0  Station : 1, ADDRESS : 0002, EXTRA1:M,  EXTRA2 :

The setting parameter shown above is word write example for 0002 word of M memory type.

 

3. Connectoin of communication cable

Please connect full RS-232C Serial communication cable for GLOFA PLC. If you connect brief cable(2, 3, 5 connector), it can't communate with PLC.

Also you have to set mode switch properly(dedicated communication mode) of the G4L-GUEA module. ( refer to reference manual of GLOFA PLC )
