C-More HMI Do-More PLC Modbus Tags - Screen Navigation Dev Now!

Previously, we put our first program (Video) into the C-More Micro HMI Panel using the C-More Micro programming software. The Do-More Designer Simulator was used with a modified Start-Stop Jog Circuit, so we can use our HMI screen to control both the output and the PLC inputs. This communication was done via Ethernet with the Modbus TCP protocol.
We will now look at PLC-to-Panel and Panel-to-PLC communications. This will allow us to control the panel's screen page number, beeper, and backlight from the PLC. We will also receive notifications of the same, as well as key-press information from the HMI panel. Let's get started.

More information can be obtained on our Website. This includes all of the links mentioned in this video.
