XXXXX-XXX-XX Twido/Magelis Connectivity Users Guide08/2007 Introduction


Introduction The Magelis XBTG/XBTGT operator terminal can be interfaced to the Twido PLC using either Modbus RTU or Modbus TCP/IP. This document outlines the hardware and software setup needed to accomplish each connection.

Hardware Requirements You will need the following hardware for this application:1. The Twido PLC parts necessary for their particular application. An

additional serial port is strongly recommended. The additional serial port allows for communication to the XBTG/XBTGT operator terminal while being able to download and monitor the Twido PLC. The Twido Modular processor, TWDLMDA40DTK is used in this example.

2. The XBTG/XBTGT operator terminal appropriate for your application. If Modbus TCP/IP is required, select a model with an Ethernet port. The XBTG4330 operator terminal is used in this example.

3. A serial download cable appropriate for the XBTG/XBTGT operator terminal and Modbus communication cable for the desired communication port. The XBTZG915 serial download cable and XBTZ968 communication cable for the Modbus communication to COM Port 1 are used in this example.

Software Requirements 1. Twido Soft version 3.2 or higher will be needed to program the Twido PLC.

2. Vijeo Designer version 4.3.0 or higher will be needed to program the Magelis HMI.

References This document provides the user with a guide to connect a Twido PLC to a Magelis XBTG/XBTGT operator terminal using either Modbus RTU or Modbus TCP/IP. It does not provide the user with how to use the Twido Soft software or how to use the Vijeo Designer software. Please refer to the reference material in the Table 1 for more detailed documentation.

Modbus RTU

Twido PLC Setup 1. Connect Port 1 on the Twido PLC to the laptop PC with cable TSXPCX3030 (USB) or TSXPCX1031 (serial). This cable has a selector switch on it to allow connection to different devices and it needs to be in the Ter Direct position for the Twido PLC. This example uses TSXPCX3030.

2. Start the Twido Soft software on the laptop PC and open up a project to start the configuration process of the communication ports. See Figure 1.

3. Check the connection setup for the serial connection from the laptop PC to the Twido PLC. Select Preferences from the File menu listing as shown in Figure 2.

4. Press the Connections management button as shown in Figure 3.

5. Setup all connections to be used to communicate to the Twido PLC. This example uses the TSXPCX3030 (USB) cable so after the connections have been added/modified, select OK to close the window. The Preferences window appears again. Select the preferred connection means from the pull down list and select OK to close the window. See Figure 4.

Magelis XBTG/XBTGT Operator Terminal Setup

1. Connect Port 2 on the Twido PLC to the Magelis XBTG/XBTGT operator terminal. Please refer to the Figure 10 for the correct connection cable and connection port. (This example used the cable XBT Z968 to COMM Port 1 on a Magelis XBTG4330.)

Figure 10: Cordsets and connection ports



2. Start Vijeo Designer on the laptop PC and open up a project to start the configuration process to communicate via Modbus with the Twido PLC. See Figure 11.

Figure 11: Start Vijeo Designer



3. Setup the Download communication protocol by selecting Serial from the drop down listing in the Property Inspector window. Select the correct COM Port for the laptop PC with the following Baud rate: 19200. This example is using COM port 1. See Figure 12.

Figure 12: Property Inspector



4. Add a Schneider Electric Modbus driver by right clicking on the IO Manager and selecting New Driver. See Figure 13.

Figure 13: IO Manager and select new driver



5. Select Schneider Electric Industries SAS from the Manufacturer: pull down listing and select the Modbus (RTU) driver as shown in Figure 14.

6. The new driver will be added to the IO Manager. The driver now needs to be setup to communicate to the serial port on the Twido PLC. Double-click on the ModbusRTU01 driver to open up the Driver Configuration window as shown in Figure 15.

Figure 14: New Driver

Figure 15: ModbusRTU01



The driver needs to be setup with the following: COM1, RS-485, 19200, 8 data bits, No Parity and 1 stop bit. See Figure 16.

NOTE: We are using COM1 because we have chosen cable XBT Z968 to communicate to the Magelis XBTG and this cable only works with COM1.

Figure 16: Driver Configuration



7. The Modbus address needs to be setup to communicate with the Twido PLC in the Equipment Configuration window. Double-click on ModbusEquipment02 to open up the Equipment Configuration window as shown in Figure 17.

NOTE: In the Twido example, a Modbus address of 2 was used so we need to make this address 2 to be able to communicate with the Twido PLC.

The IEC61131 Syntax must be checked if the variables from the PLC are to be linked to variables within the Vijeo Designer application.

Figure 17: Equipment Configuration



8. Select the Variables tab in the Navigator window as shown in Figure 18.

Figure 18: Navigator Variables Tab



9. Right click on the Target1 to link variables from the Twido PLC to variables within the Vijeo Designer application. See Figure 19.

Figure 19: Link Variables from Twido PLC to Variables within Vijeo Designer



10. The Link Variables window allows for the selection of the appropriate Twido application. See Figure 20.

NOTE: Be sure to select *.TWD as the type of file and make sure that Twido Soft is shutdown before trying to link the variables.

Figure 20: Link Variables



11. Select the desired variables to link or press the Select All button. Select the Variables that keep the same name radial so that the variable names are the same in each application. Add the variables to the Vijeo Designer application by pressing the Add button. Then press the Close button to close the window as shown in Figure 21.

12. A status window opens to show the success/failure of the variable linking as shown in Figure 22.

NOTE: This window will pop-up at various time to show the status of a function.
