We use M221 Schneider controller and at times it is failing to communicate with the software unless your reset the power (switch off and on) on the panel. This is sometimes down for a number of times before the Controller responds. Could it be that the controller is fault.
Hi there! I do not think it is something on the controller to be honest but i will advice to use latest firmware. I recommend you to retrieve the log files of the m221 and contact the schneider support to check it. It will be good if you record the behaviour of the led to know the real status of the plc.
@@LeTomasAHUMADA thank you. I am suspecting the battery and planning of replacing it. This is happening after losing power and my thought is that maybe the backup battery is dead. Thanks again and great training.
Hi @@iran_siemens , At the moment I prefer people to contact me using the comments on the videos for a specific topic 😊. Next week, I am going to come up with something on the youtube community tab (if i have some time 🤞🏻) If you are in a hurry trying to sort out a problem I strongly recommend you to contact the Schneider Electric Support on your country. www.se.com/ww/en/work/support/country-selector/contact-us.jsp
Hi Marwan! I am not sure that i will cover machine scada expert this year but if i am not wrong you can add a modbus tcp driver in the scada easily access to the information on the m580. Please check with the schneider support in your country or access to exchange.se.com/
Hello! can M221 Print reports or data? One of my client is requesting for an print report function for his cement batching plant. Is it possible to print reports using M221 plc?
Hi there! I just saw this 😊 The M221 can save date into a sd card but if you need something like a report a small scada like the EcoStruxure Machine Scada Expert can be a solution or one of our hmi software to export the data.
Hi there! In the M221 we have the %S14 that indicates there is at least one input or output forced. The %S15 will indicate only inputs but... it will not tell you which one... and if i am not wrong once you logout and try to connect the force indication remains but the identification vanish (i believe this happen)
First, the sound is not clear Second, the explanation and presentation is difficult for beginners to understand.. The program in general contains branched and forked instructions and commands, unlike Siemens, Delta and Omron programs
Thanks Samo for your comment. I have been working on the quality of the video and audio in the newer videos 😊, if you check the newest videos you will see the change of the audio quality. I am sorry that the series of videos are not clear for you, if you were working with the other brands then you will managed to work with this software in no time.
Great training!

Do advanced topics include these tutorials? E.g hsc pto analog pid and....
Hi there! I will make some tutorials about those topics. They are on my agenda, we just need to wait 😊
Is it possible for me to send you a message on WhatsApp?
