EA3-S3ML-RN serial HID to Ethernet Standard Click not working
I am having issues with the PLC connecting to the EA3. Does anyone have any advise or guides to refer me to? I found some videos that Garry put out but they are for the HID Ethernet models.
Hi theultimateandy,
Are you connecting the EA3-S3ML-RN with the D0-CBL cable to port 2 (RS232) of the Click Standard Ethernet Unit?
Here is the pinout of the cable.

In the C-More Micro software:
Select protocol setup.
Another way of viewing these parameters is to use the main menu | Setup | Panel Manager...
In the Click PLC software select main menu | Setup | Com Port Setup...
Select Port 2 Setup
I hope this helps you out.
Regards,
Garry

HI Garry, thanks for getting back to me. I am using the DV1000CBL for communications from the PLC to the panel. The com port setup on the PLC and on the Cmore Panel mirrored happended to mirror yours exactly.
I did notice on the screen it was saying "P009:Re INV.FUN.Code" I thought it was originally some weird bit code until I googled it, then realizing it was an error code. I am also getting a "P007: CRC Not Match"
After looking at the forum with someone having a similar problem, it looks like a noise issue. I am currently using a generic 24V switching power supply. I will order a Click power supply to see if that is the problem, unless there are any other recommendations that you or anyone else can suggest. I am hoping that it will also resolve the P007 issue as well.
Thanks,
Andy
Hi Andy,
+1 noise sounds like the issue.
Since you are currently trying to communicate at 38200 baud, I would try reducing this to 9600 baud on both ends. This will be less acceptable to noise on the line.
Just a thought.
Regards,
Garry
