Marco (Customer) asked a question.
How Productive2000 communicates with a computer?
I need to receive a message from a computer using my P2000.
We did not decide what type of message format yet.
The key is what can be and how can be received by Productive2000
The message will turn on a memory bit in PLC
Is there any video to teach that?
You can see Garry's video below demonstrating this with Advanced HMI. Probably the easiest way to accomplish comms with a computer is through Modbus TCP. This would be the "default" comms protocol for SCADA software such as Advanced HMI, Ignition or VTSCADA.

The above is the post that will correspond to the video above.
Modbus TCP would be the best option with AdvancedHMI. This is a VB.Net program that is opened source and runs on visual studio. Connection to databases can easily be done with VB.Net.

I am using python for communicating with PLCs over modbus TCP using the pymodbus module
