review the following information for setting up and configuring the mitsubishi r04 ethernet binary (gen1) driver manufacturing connect edge compatible series compatibility parameter compatible items driver type ethernet validated devices/series melsec iq r to set up and configure this device in manufacturing connect edge, you will need to do the following step 1 set up and configure the plc device step 2 set up the plc device in manufacturing connect edge devicehub step 3 configure the list of registers step 1 set up and configure the plc device note only one connection is allowed per port defined in the plc see the steps below to view and edit the open ports on the plc if the device is configured for ethernet access, find its network parameters otherwise, follow the steps below to configure your device note down the following information and refer to it when needed device mitsubishi r04cpu communication i/f ethernet connect the device to your pc using a usb launch gxworks 3 v1 035m software from the navigation panel, navigate to system parameters > read mounting status , and then check for the cpu to display from the navigation panel, click module configuration to see if the base rack and cpu display click module parameters and enter the desired ip address, subnet mask, and default gateway if you want to write back to plc tags with manufacturing connect edge, make sure the enable/disable online change setting is set to enable all (slmp) click external device configuration (detailed setting) to set up the connection (ethernet built in port) draw slmp connection module from the module list to the left set up of the port number depends on how many devices need to connect with the plc click close with reflecting the setting , click apply , and then click write to plc power the plc off and on again to activate the setting from the navigation panel, navigate to connection destination > connection , click find cpu (built in ethernet port) on network , and then select the target device click connection test step 2 set up the plc device in manufacturing connect edge devicehub configure the following parameters when you connect a device docid\ rfvijdxz7dbad8mwbisma with this driver update default values to the specific set up of your device parameter value type mitsubishi driver mitsubishi r04 ethernet binary (gen1) network address the device address you defined in step 1 port 5007 station id 255 step 3 configure the list of registers when you add tags docid\ ioanzd2awqnkuppgee3eh to the connected device, refer to the following register table and tag parameters refer to the following additional resources device and tag metadata use case docid\ f b720nivllber44rfyhn tag formula variables docid\ pwd 7p kzjxkt pyawaow register

the drop down list the available options depend on the register name selected polling interval enter a value in seconds this determines how often the tag should poll the register for data tag name enter a name for the tag description (optional) enter a description for the tag address enter a tag address the value must in the decimal format, within the allowed min/max range omit the leading zeros the device might use the decimal (d), hexadecimal (h), or octal (o) address format see the register table at the bottom of the dialog box for bit tags, append the bit address without the bit separator the lowercase letters in the address format indicate how many digits you should enter in the bit address count enter the number of register values to read a count higher than 1 will generate an array of values from the address value configured and respective subsequent address values tag formula enter a formula for the tag to process the generated data two variables are permitted value (current tag value) and timestamp (current tag unix time in milliseconds) the following math functions are available sin cos sqrt tan power power( x ) performs the operation 10^x log log( x ) is the natural logarithm (the logarithm is in base e ) exp exp( x ) performs the operation e^x only publish on change of value select the checkbox to customize nats messages to be published only when the value parameter changes from a previous value to a new one change of value only applies to boolean, numeric (such as int or float), and simple string data types it does not apply to complex types, such as json or array poll once topics will not be affected by change of value settings these topics will still only see a single message meta data metadata summarizes basic information about data this feature allows you to define key value pair data for the device output payload later on it can then be used to find, use, and reuse particular instances of data note if you use special characters in meta data key names, the special characters are replaced with underscore characters in the payload this can cause two key names to be combined into one for example, configuring the key names a b and a&\&b will cause only one key name to be created (a b)
