CNT-8412 (5-pin) powerplug / connector to GL-9xxx network adapters and PIO

Accessory name: CNT-8412
Part.No. 100-8186 ​

Common for both FnIO GL- and ML-series.

For example the spare part CNT-8412 power connector to be used for example to the GL-997x PIOs e.g. GL-9971/9972/9973/9974/9975 or the GL-90xx light network adapters e.g GL-9086 / 9086 / 9087 / 9089 etc. 

CODESYS Trace feature for PIO modules

The 'Trace' function is only supported in the PIO modells that inlcude the visualization. 

That include PIO models: GN-9xx3 (for example GN-9373) and GL-9973/75, GL-9981-C-x, M9xx3 and ML9973/75 series.

BCS Tools - SFC errors at compile

​Affected versions:
3.50, 3.51, 3.52
Will be solved in 3.60

Affected devices:
All devices in BCS Tools with <SP17 runtime.
BoX2 SC all variants
X2 control all variants
GL-99xx all variants
GN-93xx all variants

The reason for this is due to compatible issue between the runtime version implemented in the device and the version of the SFC library.

Workaround
Change the version in use to an older version according to the attached pictures.

Not possible to add features to the CODESYS license of standard PIO

​For the standard Programmable IO of type GN-937x, GL-997x or M937x, like the GL-9972, it's NOT possible to add any additional features like protocols etc. This is because these standard PIO modules uses a fixed license setup. 

Only the Embedded Programmable I/O of GL-998x type, like the model GL-9981-C-1 that support CODESYS Application-Based Licenses, can change and add features.

Programmable IO - Release Notes / Revision history

Conversion guide for alternative products between S-series remote IO to G- or M-series

​Use this PDF to chose a corresponding product. In some cases there are several alternatives that may need deeper investigating but in general:
- S- and G- (or M-) series modules cannot be mixed since they are mechanically different, however it is perfectly possible to have connect a S-series and G-series network adapter to the same network.
- The G-series is great all-purpose family that will work in most cases although not marine applications.
- The M-series is adapted for demanding applications and environments. It offers hot-swap and redundancy and is has a marine certifications.
