CHAPTER 2
Before starting the OMRON Ethernet DAServer
This chapter contains instructions how to configure OMRON PLCs to be accessible by
Omron Ethernet DAServer in OMRON Ethernet FA network.
Configuration example deals with local network. If data are to be accessed from remote
networks then Relay Network Tables must be additionally configured in the PLC.

Preparing the Hardware to be used with OMRON Ethernet
DAServer
The Omron Ethernet DAServer requires an Ethernet card and TCP/IP protocol supporting
Windows Sockets interface to be installed on the computer to communicate with the
OMRON PLCs over the Ethernet network.
Each connected OMRON Controller (with Ethernet Unit installed) must be configured to
allow it to function as a node on the Ethernet network. This setup can be done by
switches on the module and/or appropriate programming software.
The OMRON C200HX/C200HG/C200HE PLCs (except CPU11), CV-series PLCs, CS1
PLCs as well as CJ1 PLCs can be used as nodes on Ethernet network. The
C200HX/C200HG/C200HE PLCs must be supplied with communication module:
C200HW-PCS01-EV1 Ethernet Set or C200HW-PCU01 PC Card Unit supplied with the
Ethernet PC Card (e.g. Kingston T.C. EtheRxEthernet PC Card models: KNE-PCM/M –
for coaxial and twisted pair connection, KNE-PCM/T – for twisted pair connection).
The CS1-series PLCs must be supplied with CS1W-ETN01 Ethernet Unit.
The CJ1-series PLCs must be supplied with CJ1W-ETN11 Ethernet Unit.
The CV-series PLCs must be supplied with CV500-ETN01 communication module.
The Ethernet PC Card installed in the C200HW-PCU01 PC Card Unit in the
C200HX/C200HG/C200HE PLC is configured by software supplied with communication
hardware.
Node number and Unit number of CV500-ETN01 (in CV-series PLC) is set by rotary
switches on the module. Software (CVSS software, SYSWIN or CX-Programmer) is used
to configure IP Address, Routing tables and IP Address tables.
Node number and Unit number of CS1W-ETN01 Ethernet Unit (in CS1-series PLC) is set
by rotary switches on the front side of module. Local IP Address is set by switches SW1,
SW2, ..., SW8 on the back side of module. Software (CX-Programmer) is used to
configure Routing tables and IP Address tables.
Node number and Unit number of CJ1W-ETN11 Ethernet Unit (in CJ1-series PLC) is set
by rotary switches on the front side of module. Software (CX-Programmer) is used to
configure Routing tables, local IP Address and IP Address tables.
