Technical support / NANO-10 and Weintek MT8050iE 4.3" Touch panel
« on: August 10, 2022, 04:33:26 PM »
I'm having difficulty getting a NANO-10 and Weintek MT8050iE 4.3" HMIl to work together. According to the TRI PLC web site, these devices are supposed to be compatible. I've used the 4.3" HMI on a project with an FMD88-10 PLC and that was a breeze to get working. I've tried the default com settings of 38400, n, 8, 1. on COMM1 (SETBAUD 11, &H06) and COMM3 (SETBAUD 13, &H06). Changed my cable to match COMM 1 or COMM3. Every time I boot up these devices I get a "PLC not responding" message on the HMI.
I've gone back to using Weintek's Easy Builder Pro version 5.X (the one with the TRI-PLC drivers written specifically for it. I've copied/pasted the drivers to new versions of EB Pro, but thought I may have missed something) I've tried the TRI_PLC driver and the TRI_FX driver. Neither work for me.
In addition to the touch panel, I also have an Autonics TX4S temperature controller connected to the RS-485 line (MODBUS-RTU). This device talks to the NANO-10 just fine. However, I've noticed that when I connect the wires from the HMIl, the NANO-10 and TX4S stop talking.
Please, tell me what I'm overlooking.
Thanks in advance.
