Some of you may have read my earlier saga of, on impulse, buying an obsolete Omron CPM1A + expansion unit and the subsequent trials and tribulations of obtaining suitable software and cable to talk to it.
It's looking increasingly like my Omron-branded oversize Lego block will remain an interesting paperweight. So, given that I have a small 'home' project that I'd like to implement and have written a plausible program in Syswin for the CPM1A, what are your suggestions for a way to go if the CPM1A remains 'incommunicardo'?
Automation direct have their CLICK 8/6 I/O micro PLC and cable for a low cost with, supposedly, free software. This should have all the smarts I need for my simple program. Any other suggestions? Please bear in mind, this is for a home-brew project and self-training, so obvioculy I won't be spending $mega on 'all singing, all dancing' software like CX-One.
Depending on what you are trying to do, you may not need a PLC at all. The Omron Zen is a small programmable controller with relay outputs. You could use it to do some of the things PLCs do, like timers and counters and logic. Just not much use for things like math and analog control.
I have used CPM1A before, and it's a good little PLC. But I also used an official Omron cable, so I had no trouble getting online with it. I recommended before that you get a CPM1-CIF01 and make a serial cable, or get the CQM1-CIF02. If you need to use a USB to serial adapter, I always had great sucess with many vendor's PLCs using the Keyspan USA-19HS USB to serial adapter. Some of the others out there (and the generic cables) are just crap.
Thank you both for your suggestions and help. However, it seems Gtsuport's suggestion to try the Trail version of CX-One has paid off. If only this endless Clear All Memory process will end - or have I created another monster...
PS: Please disregard comments about "endless Clear All Memory process". It worked correctly and I've since downloaded and monitored my program. It's just that the comms LED and the USB adapter LED's now flicker continuously. But everything seems to be working, so I'm not complaining. Ian
Thanks for the Zen suggestion, Mr Crossbow. I've just read the brochure and I'm sure it would eat my simple application for breakfast. Shame the turkey at Omron Aust didn't bother to mention it as an alternative to his $1000+ suggestion - I would have been interested. I'm now happy I can play around with my CPM1A for the time being but I'll keep the Zen in mind should I need to do a simple 'real' project in future. Ian
I Currently, I do not possess an adequate number of Xeltek CX0001 adapters to conduct a thorough test on the Xeltek Superpro 5004EGP Universal Gang Programmer. Moreover, I am lacking PLCC20 chips for the adapters that were included with the Xeltek Superpro 5004EGP. To exacerbate the situation, Xeltek is requesting a sum of $95.00 for each CX0001 adapter, totaling $380.00, and an additional approximate $20 for shipping. (Yes, I Know I could have Ordered a handful of PLCC Chips but wheres the fun in that)
This adapter has a straightforward and simple design. Once I had everything set up and ready to go, I eagerly began experimenting and exploring the abundant features it easyeda had to offer. Here is a rendering of the PCB I created.
This is the 4 Layer PCB and a 3D model of my adapter made with EasyEDA Pro for the 5000/5000E series. I added a 10Pin IDC Header for Using on Devices that have a In Circuit Programing Capability Vs Having to Use a Xeltek ISP-Header-01 (Here is the Xeltek CX/DX Footprint for the Hirose FX2 Layout For Easy EDA)
Rendering of the 2 Prototypes one set up just for the Magic Chip V1 and a second one that can be used for both Mgaic Chip V1 and V2 Configurations. The EDA software is Limited so Rendering places all parts on the board.

The More versatile V1.2 Black Board offers two assembly options to Cater to your specific needs. You can effortlessly assemble it for use with the Public V1 Magic Chip. Alternatively, you have the flexibility to configure it for seamless transfer of your Magic Chip V2 Atmega 328P microcontroller, especially useful that the magic chip 2 firmware is non-public.
Presenting the 3 UX0001 Universal Adapters For the Xeltek Superpro programmers. Hand assembling these takes some time! (I will be putting this up for trade) I could use a older eetools TopMax II.
I made some changes to my boards that run the V1 Code I also made them so I can Also transfer my Magic Chip V2 to them so they will be compatible with the top case adapters for the mega magic. I did not make these 4 layer made them 2 layer boards to the routing was a bit more complex but all turned out well.
Like many companies, Air Products evolved over time by creating point solutions across the business. But what we need to do now is look at the value stream holistically to enable the end-to-end processes. In order for us to deliver solutions for our customers, we need an enterprise architecture and platforms that allow data to flow all the way from the initial bidding process, through procurement, and all the way to construct and operate.
In addition to our focus on these mega projects, our core merchant business is where we transport liquid products and a large number of industrial gas containers, including cylinders, to different customers. There, we are working to build and deploy a new IoT platform and applications to further optimize inventory tracking and logistics for cylinders.
One new area is focused on operational excellence, led by a leader who has come into the role from the business area. This vertical acts as the funnel from the business into the IT organization. Business and functional experts from that group are embedded into each of the major functions and regional organizations in order to understand their goals and objectives. They then funnel that demand into IT, so that we have a good capacity planning process and are using all of our IT resources to drive top- and bottom-line value for the business.
Our other new line of service is focused on data and architecture. All of our data scientists and enterprise architects are in this group; they work together to ensure our systems are integrated and that data flows end-to-end.
Because our new operating model adds two new vertical lines of service to the three traditional lines, we believe that we are positioned to capture value and change how we deploy solutions. The model is focused on continually driving and creating even more business value.
Third is that not everything needs to be built within the IT organization. When you build your platform for scalability, the end result should be that those business partners who have the right skills can contribute to the solutions. Give your business partners the framework and tools to allow them to create their own solutions in the appropriate situations.
Even as citizen development increases, CIOs will still need to manage infrastructure, architecture, and security. But with business users able to use technology with greater ease to manage business process change, CIOs can shift their focus to value capture and business model change. The CIO will stay current on new technologies and will bridge the gap between new technologies and business strategy. As more technology moves to the cloud and into the business, CIOs will shift their focus from foundational IT and business processes to the application of ever-changing technologies aimed at creating more business value and new revenue streams.
