Hello everyone, I am currently facing an issue while trying to configure the real-time clock on my Mitsubishi FX1N PLC. The error code ES: 01800001 is appearing, despite successful communication via USB/RS232 for programming loading. However, I am encountering difficulties setting up the real-time clock. Your assistance is greatly appreciated. Thank you for your support.
It seems like there is a checksum error occurring when attempting to write the Real-Time Clock (RTC) using the Integrated Development Environment (IDE). Have you tried going online with the Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) to monitor the code?
I want to express my gratitude to Parky for their assistance. I was able to resolve the issue by watching a helpful YouTube video. Your support is greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Can you please provide the link to the video or better yet, explain the steps you took to troubleshoot and resolve the issue? I would appreciate any assistance you can offer in resolving my problem.
Hey there, it seems like you've run into a bit of a snag. I am assuming you are using GX Developer or GX Works2 for programming. If that's the case, make sure you reset the PLC to factory state, and then perform the system settings again, including your RTC setting. It's also worth double checking that your hardware setup matches your software settings. Is your RTC battery in good condition? This could also affect the RTC operations. Remember, the PLC must have its power cycled after you change the RTC settings for the changes to take effect. Let us know how it goes!
Hi there! It sounds like you're dealing with a frustrating issue. For the error code ES: 01800001, make sure you're checking that the battery in the FX1N is good, as a dead or low battery can cause issues with the real-time clock configuration. Also, ensure that your programming software is updated to the latest version, as sometimes compatibility issues can lead to such errors. If you're still stuck, consider looking through Mitsubishi's manuals or forums for any specific steps on clock settings—it often helps to see if anyone else has had a similar experience. Good luck!
