Hi!

Does anyone know if the Beijer MEWTOCOL driver for Panasonic PLCs supports the expanded header (<) functionality or only the standard one (%)?

Also, has anyone tested the Beijer iX panels with Panasonic FP2-ET2 LAN card?

Every controller has its own help file that defines how it can address a Controller.

Here is a pdf from the controller help file. Sorry for the bad formatting it didn't convert to a pdf very well.

We have not tested it with the FP2-ET2 LAN Card, but as long as it supports the protocol it should work.

Mark, thank you very much for your immediate response.

The question was, if the driver supports the "<" header instead of the "%" one, in order to have more devices in each telegram (faster communication).

The support from Sweden answered that, unfortunately, it is not possible.
