Matsushita device driver
The device driver is used for SK HMI to read and write the data or state of Matsushita FP series PLC register. The serial communication connection is established through the serial port on the touch screen and the serial port of Matsushita FP series PLC, so as to operate Matsushita FP series PLC. Prior to use of the driver, one shall carefully read related technical specifications of the chapter and Matsushita FP series PLC.

2. Software settings
Select MATSUSHITA in connection device service.
Select the corresponding item in connection device service according to the connected PLC model or supported protocol.
Ensure that the communication parameters in touch screen connection parameters and PLC station number are consistent with the PLC connected.
For settings of connecting PLC, please refer to the technical documents of the Matsushita FP series PLC.

d represents decimal system, input range is 0-9;
h represents hexadecimal system, input range is 0-9, a-f;
Word in the remarks: represents the register can only be used as word;
Bit in the remarks: represents the register can only be used as bit;
Read only in the remarks represents that the register can only be read but not be written;
The names of the registers supported by different equipment model may be different, and the scopes may also be different.
