How can i transfer the result of Vision Builder's inspection to Siemens PLC s7-1200 using a serial communication? Maybe going through LabView? Thanks.

Hi,

you can implement serial communication directly from Vision Builder using "Serial I/O" step in the Communicate palette.

Using "Send Command" button, you can also send the steps results through serial port.

Bye!

Hi, you can use TCP communication. In my case, PLC was server. Used TSEND_C and TRCV_C functions.

In VBAI I did setup TCP client ( tools, Communication device manager) and was able to send and receive with the function TCP I/O
