Features

 

What is Open Network Controller?

 

Simply put, the ONC is an information station. It provides onsite information to your information system from manufacturing equipment and production lines by sending data collected from PLCs, DeviceNet, Temperature Controllers, Digital Panel Meters, and other FA components via Ethernet, intranet, and Internet connections. It can be used to add advanced information capabilities without changing the PLC system.

ONC Stand-alone Applications as an Information gateway

 

Ethernet-to-DeviceNet Remote I/O Communications

  • Data from DeviceNet Slaves is reflected in event memory in the ONC. The data in event memory can be read/written from the personal computer, effectively reading/writing actual I/O data for the slaves.

  • Data from DeviceNet slaves can be read/written through the ONC without using PLCs.

  • Explicit messages can be sent through the ONC to the DeviceNet slaves from the personal computer.

  • PLC ladder program maintenance cam be performed from the CX-Programmer through DeviceNet.

Ethernet-to-DeviceNet Remote I/O Communications

 

Ethernet-to-Serial Communications

 

i. Ethernet-to-Serial Communications (Host Link or CompoWay/F)

Communications can be converted between FINS, Host Link, and CompoWay/F for C-series PLCs (e.g., CQM1H and CPM2A/C) and OMRON components.

 

Ethernet-to-Serial Communications (Host Link or CompoWay/F)

 

* Connection from the CX-Programmer is possible only for CS Series, CJ Series, CVM1, and CV Series.

 

ii. Ethernet-to-Serial Communications (FinsLink)

Data from PLCs connected on serial lines can be reflected in event memory in the ONC using FinsLink. The data in event memory can be read/written from the personal computer, effectively reading/writing data linked in the PLCs.

 

Ethernet-to-Serial Communications (FinsLink)

 

* Fins Link is a communications protocol for using FINS commands to read data (CIO and DM) from PLCs connected to the ONC via a\serial lines and to periodically write data to event memory in the ONC.
It creates virtual data links between the ONC and PLCs using serial communications.

 

Ethernet-to-Controller Link or SYSMAC LINK Data Links

Data from multiple PLCs on Controller Link or SYSMAC LINK networks is reflected in event memory in ONC using the data link function. Changes can be made to data linked in the PLCs by reading/Writing event memory in the ONC.
Remote programming and monitoring can be performed for PLCs from the CX-Programmer through a Controller Link network.

Various Software for Web Monitoring, E-mail Applications and Database Connections

 

WebToolKit for ONC Application as a Browser Station

 

Information from FA components connected to the ONC can be viewed from a Web browser running on a personal computer connected to Ethernet, an intranet, or Internet*. This enables using Internet Explorer on your computer for monitoring. The WebToolKit is a development kit for building Web applications using Visual Basic or Java. The Web application is built in the ONC, allowing Web browsers running on personal computers to monitor data. (The computer is used as a graphic terminal.)


* : A fixed IP address is obtained from the provider to use Internet.

RemoteKit for ONC Application as an E-mail Station

 

E-mail can be sent from the ONC to personal computers or cell phones on specified conditions*.
Files created by the Data Collection/Distribution Software can also be attached to e-mail sent to personal computers. E-mail can thus be used to provide status reports periodically, when errors occur, or at scheduled times. Dialup connections can be
automatically processed through a modem to your ISP.


* : E-mail can be sent based on a schedule or based on changes in bits or analog data from components connected to the ONC, such as PLCs or DeviceNet slaves.

 

E-mail can be sent whenever required by installing one ONC in the facility (e.g. gas turbine power generation plants).

 

 

DataBaseToolKit for ONC Application as a Database Connection Station

 

Data from FA components connected to the ONC can be periodically (every second) stored in a database running on a personal computer connected via Ethernet. Files created by the Data Collection/ Distribution Software can also be periodically stored in the database.


* : E-mail can be sent based on a schedule or based on changes in bits or analog data from components connected to the ONC, such as PLCs or DeviceNet slaves.

 

Achieves simple data processing by automatically storing production records, error histories, and other data directly in a database.

 

 

Application Examples

 

Data Collection Station

 

Collect Data and Send It Using FTP
Collect data under the required conditions from PLCs connected via various networks and from DeviceNet slaves and save it in CSV or binary files in the Memory Card in the ONC. Without any changes to the PLC system, the ONC can be used as a collection station for production, error, inspection, and history data.

 

Example: Data collected using the Data Collection/Distribution Software can be displayed in Excel as shown below. A sample CSV file is shown set to collect data when bit 00 in CIO 0000 turns ON. The date can be added each time data is collected, and field names can be attached.

 

 

A Station for Changing the System Setup
Write Settings, Such as Recipe Data, to PLCs The settings required to change the system setup can be written (i.e., "distributed") to the PLCs. Data for changing the
setup (A, B, C, ...) is written to CSV files at a personal computer in the host system.


These files are transferred to the ONC, which transfers the data from the CSV files to the specified memory addresses in the PLCs when instructed by the host system (e.g., by turning ON a bit or at a scheduled time).
