ZhengHang device driver
The device driver is used for SK HMI to read and write the data or state of ZhengHang A5 series PLC register. The serial communication connection is established through the serial port on the touch screen and the serial port of Yokogawa FA-M3 series PLC, so as to operate ZhengHang A5series PLC. Prior to use of the driver, one shall carefully read related technical specifications of the chapter and ZhengHang A5 series PLC.
