The Turck Service Tool is used to find the IP Address of the FEN-20 device on the wired network. With the device connected via ethernet, click search to discover all FEN-20 devices on the network. Record down the IP Address and the machine/asset the FEN-20 is on for later reference.
The AGREE programming environment is used to program the FEN-20. For our use-case, we use it to turn the input signal into a counter and make this available via Modbus TCP in its registers. All that needs to be done is to import the project file at the top of this page by performing the following steps.
Open the AGREE Programming Environment in the extracted folder
Enter in the IP Address you found from the Turck Service Tool
Click Project in the title bar
Open a Project and select the FEN-20-Count-Signal.arg file
You’ll now see the program. Click Run to send the project to the device
Now the program is running on the device, we can see count signal input on AGREE_TO_PLC Register 0
You can now safely exit the window, this can be either closing the tab or closing the browser window.
Lastly, you can connect TilliT to read this count by configuring a Modbus TCP datasource and an edge data tag for register 16384
