I want to  communicate Between Omron NX1P2-9020DT PLC and LabVIEW with ethernet/ip. But there is only NJ plc in NI OPC server. Please help me.

Hi onrkal,

I'm sorry to hear that you're having difficulty communicating with your PLC! How are you currently attempting to connect? If you're trying to connect to it through NI OPC Servers, you'll need to make sure you have the correct drivers installed. This page lists the drivers that are currently available.

Although I'm not seeing the NX line of PLCs on that page, it does look like several Omron models are included. Some of our customers have reported having success using the drivers for similar models, but if they're not listed, we haven't done sufficient testing to determine compatibility. This means that while it might work, we would not have many resources available to be able to assist you if you run into strange behavior.

Another avenue you might pursue would be to communicate with the PLC directly from your LabVIEW code. Depending on the PLC's communication capabilities, you have a variety of options. Here are a few articles that go over the most common options:

OPC:

Modbus:

it may be work with modbus. i have no modbus module on plc. That's why i don't try it. i want to communicate with ethernet on NI OPC. this plc model is new. may be that's why  it isn't in list.
