10.4 Procedures for Using GTWIN

If you are using GTWIN for the first time, follow the procedure outlined below.

Procedure:

1.Boot GTWIN.

Click on the menu items in the following sequence: “Start Menu”→ “Programs” → “NAiS Terminal” → “GTWIN” → “GTWIN”. This boots GTWIN and displays a dialog box where the job can be selected. Select “New” to created new file.

2.Select the model being used.

A model selection dialog box is displayed. Select the model of PLC and GT as indicated below.

–PLC Model: MEWNET–FP Series, or a general–purpose serial device (personal computer, microcomputer board, etc.), Mitsubishi FX series and Omron C series

–GT Model: GT10 monochrome, GT30 monochrome, GT30 color

3.Specify the basic communication area to the PLC.

When creating a new file, a basic communication area for the PLC must be set. A message dialog box is displayed on the screen. Follow the instructions to specify the basic communication area.

Click on “File (F)” on the menu bar, and then on “Configuration” and “GT Configuration”. This displays a dialog box where the GT main unit configuration settings can be entered.

Use the “Setup” tab to specify the basic communication area to the PLC.

If you are creating a new screen, select “GT10 Mode”, and if you are substituting a screen from an earlier model, select “IOP01 Mode”.

–If using the GT10 mode, specifying the first addresses for the word device and bit device reserves three consecutive words.

–If using the IOP01 mode, match the first address to the “System Area” of the earlier model.

For detailed information on the basic communication area to the PLC,

and on the map, see page 29 (GT10) and page 37 (GT30).

4.Enter the GT configuration settings, and transfer the file to the GT main unit.

If contents other than “Basic communication area to the PLC” are being changed from the default values in the GT configuration settings, enter the various settings. When the settings have been entered, send the configuration settings file to the GT main unit.

For information on entering and transferring GT configuration settings, see “GT10 Setup Procedure” on page 26, “GT10 Configuration Settings” on page 72, “GT30 Setup Procedure” on page 34, “GT30 Configuration Settings” on page 107.

5.Open a base screen from the Screen Manager.

With the above step, preparation is now complete. The “Screen Manager” indicates the screen file itself, and the numerous small buttons each indicate an individual base screen (screen creation screen).
