This document will walk you through a step by step setup
for communication from a G9SP to a Omron’s CJ PLC
using Ethernet IP communications .
Example code for this presentation can be opened using
Omron’s Network Configurator for Safety Devices.

G9SP Ethernet IP Adapter Setup www.infoPLC.net
For the setting to take affect, reboot
the G9SP safety controller after
changing the IP address through the
web page interface
Note: The IP address for the CM-EIP-
1 cannot be configured from within the
G9SP Configurator. The configuration
section is only for Ethernet for the
FINS Ethernet Adapter CP1W-CIG41

Setting up EIP Network For CJ2
www.infoPLC.net
• Drag a CM-EIP-1 and CJ2B-EIP21 into the
network diagram as shown. Change the IP
address of the CJ2 to 192.168.1.26 and the
G9SP to 192.168.1.25 as shown, by right
clicking on the controller and selecting
Change Node Address.
• Double click on the CJ2B-EIP21 in the
network diagram
• Click on the Tag Set tab, In-Consume,
and then Edit Tags

For this example we are doing a reading and write data in the G9SP the In-Consume section
and Out-Produce will be configured for this example.
IN-Consume Configuration
• Click New to create a new tag
• Enter D0 for name, this field will determine the memory location written
too in the PLC. D0 would be location DM0 in the PLC. In the size field
put 68 bytes, this number has to match the number of Target Input
bytes on the G9SP.
• Click Regist to create the tag.
• Click Close after creating the D0 tag, as the software assumes that
another tag will be created.

Out-Produce Configuration
• Ensure you are on the Out-Produce tab then
Click New to create a new tag
• Enter D100 for name, this field will determine the memory location
written too in the PLC. D100 would be location DM100 in the PLC. In
the size field put 8 bytes, this number has to match the number of
Target Input bytes on the G9SP.
• Click Regist to create the tag.
• Click Close after creating the D100 tag, as the software assumes that
another tag will be created.

• Click Ok to complete the creation of the tag
• When prompted, click Yes to create Tag Set
with the same name as the Tags that they
contain

Click on the Connections tab, highlight the CM-EIP-1 and click the Down Arrow as shown to
move the device from Unregistered device list to the Registered device list. This will register the
NE1A as a slave device to the CJ2
Double click on the device in the Registered device list. This will pop a new window that can be
used to configure the tag usage in the PLC

Once this box pops up you have a number of field that will need to be configured.
• The first field to configure would be Connection
Name, this can be any name you would like.
• The next field would be Connection I/O type
select I/O Connection with 66-byte Input.
• In the Consume Variable field select D00000-
(68byte), this should be the only choice you
have
• In the Produce Variable field select Input_100-
(68byte)
• Target Outputs, should be configured as
shown
• Click Regist when finished to complete the
device registration.
• Click Close after creating the connection, as
the software will assume that another
connection will be created.
