Question:

Hello everyone! I am looking to connect my Omron NT31C HMI with an LS PLC XBC DR60SU via RS232. Does anyone know how to do this? Additionally, I am experiencing difficulties downloading the system program onto the HMI NT31C using the NT series system installer. Can someone please assist me with this issue?

In order to program HMI, it is essential to utilize the NT support tool.

Hey there! While I haven't done this exact setup, I have some experience with Omron HMIs and LS PLCs. For the connection, you'll need to make sure that both devices have the correct communication settings like baud rate, parity, data bits, etc. and they're matched. As for the system program downloading issue on the NT31C, it could be a compatibility problem with your PC's operating system or the NT series system installer version. I'd recommend checking if your HMI is compatible with the used installer. Possibly, you could try using an older version of the installer or run the program in compatibility mode if you're using a newer Windows version. Hope these suggestions will lead you in the right direction!
