Term Explanation and Definition

IP address Ethernet uses an IP address to perform communications.

The IP address (Internet Protocol address) is an address that is used to

identify a node (host computer or controller, etc.) on the Ethernet.

IP addresses must be set and managed so that they do not overlap.

Socket A socket is an interface that enables the use of the TCP or UDP function

directly from the user program. The socket services enable data

exchange with destination nodes. The CJ-series Programmable

Controller can use the socket services in the following ways:

•Manipulation of a dedicated control bit allocated in the CIO area for

the Ethernet Unit

•Issuing a FINS command (CMND instruction) to an Ethernet Unit

Active open/

Passive open

Open processing is executed on each node to connect the TCP socket.

The open method depends on whether the node is opened as a server or

client.

In this document, the method used to open a node as a server is called

"passive open" and the method used to open a node as a client is called

"active open" or "open processing (active)".

Keep-alive function When the keep-alive function is used with TCP/IP socket services, the

keep-alive communications frame is used to check the status of the

connection with the destination node (either a server or client) if there are

no communications during the specified time interval.

Checks are executed at a certain interval, and if there is no response to

any of them then the connection is terminated.

Linger function This is an option for the TCP socket that enables immediate open

processing using the same port number without waiting until the port

number opens after RST data is sent when the TCP socket closes.

If the linger option is not specified, FIN data will be sent when a TCP

socket is closed, and then approximately 1 minute will be required to

confirm the transmission and perform other closing management with the

destination node. Therefore, it may not be possible to immediately use

TCP sockets with the same port number.

3．Remarks

4．Overview

4. Overview

This document describes the procedure for connecting the Robot Controller (RCX series,

hereinafter referred to as the Robot Controller) of Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred

to as YAMAHA MOTOR) to CJ-series Programmable Controller + Ethernet Unit (hereinafter

referred to as the PLC), and provides the procedure for checking their connection.

Refer to Ethernet communications settings described in 6. Ethernet Communications Settings

and 7. Connection Procedure to understand the setting method and key points to connect the

devices via Ethernet.

The user program in the prepared CX-Programmer project file is used to check the Ethernet

connection by sending/receiving the message of “Acquire version information” to/from the

destination device.

Prepare the latest CX-Programmer project file beforehand. To obtain the file, contact your

OMRON representative.

Name File name Version

CX-Programmer project file

(extension: cxp)

YAMAHA_RCX_ETN(TCP)_EV100.cxp Ver.1.00

*Hereinafter, the CX-Programmer project file is referred to as the “project file”.

The user program in the project file is referred to as the “ladder program” or “program”.

This document aims to explain the wiring method and communications settings

necessary to connect the corresponding devices and provide the setting

procedure. The program used in this document is designed to check if the

connection was properly established, and is not designed to be constantly used

at a site. Therefore, functionality and performances are not sufficiently taken into

consideration. When you construct an actual system, please use the wiring

method, communications settings and setting procedure described in this

document as a reference and design a new program according to your

application needs.
