1. What to do if the communication between kinseal HMI and PLC fails?
First confirm whether the kinseal HMI communication protocol supports the PLC communication, then open the kinseal Studio software to check the communication protocol under COM1 in the system parameter connection settings, pop up the protocol dialog box, select the correct PLC manufacturer protocol, and set the correct maximum read-write length and frame interval time. Then open COM1 to check whether the communication parameters, such as baud rate, calibration mode, data bit, stop bit, communication mode and station number, are set correctly. Finally, check if there is a problem with the communication line.
2. How many communication ports does kinseal HMI have?
Kns035 series has two serial ports and supports two-way 485 communication mode (only supports RS485 communication mode). Sup043 and sup070 have one-way communication screen (supporting RS232, RS422 and RS485 communication modes), and two-way communication screen (the first way supports RS232 / RS422 / RS485 communication mode, and the second way only supports 485 communication mode).
3. What is the reason why kinseal HMI always reports communication error in a certain screen?
1. First check whether the address in the screen is set incorrectly or the address is out of range. Then open the communication protocol under COM1 in connection settings to check whether the maximum read / write length and frame interval are set correctly
2. Check whether there is a picture macro in the picture, maybe the macro instruction can't read the data in the picture address

69. The communication between HMI and PLC is very slow. Sometimes it takes several seconds to read data. Why?
1. The amount of data on a single screen is too large and the data is not continuous
2. A lot of macro instructions are used
3. It uses many controls that need a lot of data, such as formula, trend chart, etc
4. There was interference at the scene
How to deal with: the amount of data on a single page should not be too large, and the number of controls should not exceed 50. It is better to read the continuous address of PLC on the current page, shorten the time of data reading and writing, establish the appropriate total number of recipes, and the total number of data should be enough. Communication must be correctly grounded and shielded cable should be used.
