The leader in industrial automation and control solutions

Introduction

All Maple Systems HMIs programmed with EBPro (EasyBuilder Pro), including every cMT X Series and cMT Series model, are compatible with an Omron CJ/CS/CP Series. Configure your Controller and HMI/cMT with the following parameters to establish reliable communication.

Supported Series: OMRON CP1E, CP2E, CP1L, CP1H, CJ1M, CJ2M, CJ1H, CJM1G, CS1H and CS1G. (Host Link Protocol FINS command), this driver supports Extend Addressing Mode.

Import Tags

  1. Export CXR file from CX-Programmer

    In CX-Programmer, go to Variables and export the *.cxr file.
    Only addresses with a tag name can be imported, and address type is required.
    CX-Programmer tag export list with columns for TagName, Type, Address, Comments, and import eligibility, showing three entries with OK and error status notes.
  2. Open System Parameters and Import Tags

    Open EBPro (EasyBuilder Pro) and set the driver parameters in System Parameter Settings, then click Import Tags.
    EasyBuilder Pro System Parameter Settings toolbar with the Import Tags button highlighted by a red border.
  3. Select the CXR file

    Browse to and select the *.cxr file exported from CX-Programmer.
  4. Select tags to import

    In the Add Tags dialog, check the tags the project needs to use, then click OK.
    EasyBuilder Pro Add Tags dialog listing tag1, tag2, and tag3 with address mode, address, and comment columns, all checkboxes selected.
  5. Confirm successful import

    A confirmation dialog appears indicating the tag information was imported successfully.
