System Configuration Section 1-3
Making Settings in the
Routing Table Area (with
CX-Integrator) OMRON Communications Units use OMRON's original FINS network system.
Make the settings for the FINS network and the relay path, as required, in the
Routing Table Area allocated to the non-volatile memory in the CPU Unit.
Use CX-Integrator to make the settings. (CX-Integrator is software that comes
with the CX-One and is automatically installed when the CX-One is installed.)
Each time the Ethernet Unit is turned ON or restarted, it reads and uses the
contents of the Routing Table Area as the settings for FINS network.
Middleware for FINS
Communications
Applications on a
Personal Computer
(FinsGateway) FinsGateway can be used as middleware when constructing communications
applications on a personal computer for a FINS network, using Visual C++ or
Visual BASIC. The CX-Programmer and CX-Integrator can also be connected
online through FinsGateway. When FINS/UDP is used in the FINS communi-
cations service, all versions of FinsGateway can be used.
When FINS/TCP is used in the FINS communications service, only FinsGate-
way Version 2003 or higher can be used.
When the CX-Programmer and CX-Integrator are connected online by FINS/
TCP, FinsGateway Version 2003 or higher must be used.
For CX-Programmer Ver. 4.0 or higher, FINS/TCP can be used to directly con-
nect to the PLC online.
