Overview 1 Start-up Guide Overview This document provides a simple guide and reference for setting up the GT1150 or GT1155 Graphic Operation Terminal (GOT) hardware and firmware for use with an MELSEC FX Series PLC. 2 Hardware Introduction The GT1150 and GT1155 are GOT1000 Series touch panel interfaces with three built-in communication channels used for capturing user input to a system. They also have Compact Flash card interfaces and a Reset button built-in.
Start-up Guide 3 Cabling Cabling Power All GT1150/GT1155 GOTs require an external 24 V DC power supply to be connected to the Power Terminals on the back of the GOT. Communication For the GT1150/GT1155 to communicate with an FX Series PLC, a dedicated communication cable is required to connect the provided PLC Communication Connector with the Programming Port (RS-422 8-pin Mini-DIN) or other communication channel of the FX (RS-422 8-pin Mini-DIN or RS-232C 9-pin D-SUB).
Cabling 3.1 Start-up Guide Programming Cables The GT1150 and GT1155 come pre-installed with an OS only and without any project data. To download a project from a PC running GT Designer2 to the GOT, a programming cable is required to connect the PC to one of the communication interfaces. For a new out-of-the-box GOT, the easiest way to connect to the GOT is through the USB MiniB type port on the front panel with a standard USB cable.
Start-up Guide 4 Firmware Updates Firmware Updates (Version 2.73 or later) To make sure the GT1150/GT1155 GOT is able to use the latest functions and features, it is the responsibility of the user to check and update the firmware (Standard monitor OS) of the GOT. Launch the latest copy of GT Designer2 and start a new project for the GOT model “GT11**-Q(320x240)” with the “MELSECFX” Controller Type. Select Yes to set the Communication Setting and make sure the Standard I/F-1 or Standard I/F-2 CH No.
Confirm Communication 5 Start-up Guide Confirm Communication The communication monitoring is a function that checks whether the GOT can communicate with the PLC. If no error is shown, communication has been set up correctly.
