Greetings, I just discovered your WPLC3 CPU yesterday when attempting to document and potentially add to the DataLogic 205 PLC's in a bank of my machines. I was confident and comfortable with the Koyo's but have been thrown a bit by your equipment.
What should I use to connect to this CPU?
I've downloaded several programs, Do-More, Click, and Think&Do. T&D has a CE Watch that looks like it should find my CPU. Will it find the IP address? I can't seem to type in the MAC address anywhere. I've set my laptop to a Static IP that I expect to be in the range and the Local Area Connection was happy that a connection was made at 100 MBPS, if I remember correctly, via the 10BaseT port.
This is a CPU H2-WPLS3-EN-3A, 0309 vintage. Is there a default IP address assigned?
I'm using an EzTouch HMI with known protocal, Would I be able to access the program through the seial port more readily with the HMI removed?
I'm weak with networking so perhaps that's my entire issue?
Thanx in advance, Steve in Las Vegas
