Ethernet connection between YRC1000micro and P1-622 Productivity PLC live connection/data refresh.
My project includes an ethernet/IP connection between a Yaskawa YRC1000 micro and a P1-622 controller. At this point, i have the connections communicating and i am able to see both inputs and outputs on both the plc and the robot controller. the problem is that i cannot get the data to refresh automatically. the only way i can refresh communication data is to toggle the Robot.Msg1Enable bit and click send data from the data view window. i need to have this function as a live, ongoing connection with automatic data refresh
Your data should be refreshing at the specified RPI Time you have configured for your device. Can you take screenshots of your T->O, O->T, and Config Data?
Looking at the screenshots you shared, everything indicates your data should be updating every 20ms — and as long as your enable bit is on, that should be happening consistently.
Found the below off Yaskawa website:

To help narrow down the root cause, would you happen to have a second P1-622 available to configure as an EtherNet/IP adapter for testing? If the data updates correctly at the 20ms rate in that setup, it would suggest the issue may lie with your end device rather than the P1-622 itself.
