GOT1000 SeriesSoftGOT-GOT Link Function for GT15 and GT16 series



SoftGOT-GOT Link function – Remote Maintenance for GOTs!

• The SoftGOT-GOT link function enables GT SoftGOT1000 to connect the GOT via Ethernet.

• The function synchronizes SoftGOT1000 data with GOT project data and resource data.

• This function is available for:

Data Auto Data Auto Acquisition Acquisition FunctionFunction

OperationOperationInterlockInterlock

•Project data auto acquisition functionSoftGOT automatically acquires GOT screen data (project data).There is no need to create the project data for SoftGOT.

•Alarm data auto acquisition functionSoftGOT automatically acquires the alarm data of GOT. Alarms that are already restored before connecting to SoftGOT can also be viewed.

In both functions, the data stored in SoftGOT will beupdated every time the SoftGOT is started up.

•Operating authorityEither one of SoftGOT or GOT can be operable to prevent the simultaneous operation from both sides that may cause unexpected behaviors.

•Operating authority (only GOT side) A mode to make only GOT operable.

Until this mode is cancelled on a GOT, SoftGOT is notoperable.

Features



Interlock operations with SoftGOT and GOT to prevent simultaneous operation on both sides.

Required Hardware

• All GT15 models plus GT15-J71E71-100 Ethernet module

• All GT16 models using integrated Ethernet port

• Any Q CPU (only Q!)



Required Software

• GT Works 3 V1.10L with– GT Designer 3 V1.10L

OS Installation -> GT15/GT16

• TransferextendedOS intoGOT!



GT Designer 3 Project Settings

Decide how to use the SoftGOT:1. GOT and SoftGOT should always show

the same screen: Use PLC Register (D) as Screen switching device!

2. SoftGOT should act as separate HMI showing different screens as GOT:Use GOT Register (GD) as Screen switching device!



SoftGOT settings

• Start SoftGOT1000 and open Communication settings
