Harmony HMI
Modicon M241 PLC
Environment
HMI and PLC programming software for Windows
Physical communication between devices
Resolution
Yes, the M241 can communicate to an HMI via SL2.
The default communication settings for SL2 does not match the settings for the COM of the HMI (baud rate and parity are different). If the settings are adapted, the communication works fine.
Below is the RS485 pinout:
