Select Driver
Select the driver with which the device should be accessed. Available drivers are:
MEWNET
The MEWNET driver accesses Panasonic FP Series PLCs using the MEWTOCOL protocol.
If you have selected the MEWNET driver, a third page allows you to edit the communication settings.
NOTE
The MEWTOCOL driver automatically uses the most efficient MEWTOCOL commands to retrieve and send data to the PLC. In certain cases they can be adapted manually.
Simulation
The Simulation driver allows OPC client data to be monitored without having a PLC connected to the PC running the FP OPC Server. Random values are set for the items the client is monitoring.
NOTE
If the Simulation driver is selected, the "Communication Settings" tab is deactivated.
