Lighthouse PLCs, Inc. : Automation Forum

THE PURPOSE OF THIS FORUM IS: AUTOMATION SOLUTIONS.  IF YOU ARE A PERSON INVOLVED IN SOME ASPECT OF AUTOMATION, HAVE AN APPLICATION YOU JUST CAN'T QUITE GET A HANDLE ON  - HAVE A PRODUCT QUESTION - OR MAYBE HAVE AN ISSUE WITH SOMETHING (EVEN IF IT IS WITH US    ), IT IS POSSIBLE YOU WILL FIND THE ANSWER HERE!!  

 OR,  IF YOU  ABSOLUTELY KNOW  THE ANSWER, OR EVEN THINK  YOU KNOW THE ANSWER, THEN JUST POST IT! MAKE THAT REPLY!
YOU ARE PROBABLY RIGHT ON THE MARK, AND MIGHT BE ABLE TO HELP SOMEBODY OUT!!    

AND, IT COULD BE YOU THAT NEEDS HELP NEXT TIME. AFTER ALL...(REALLY?).. ARE WE NOT ALL "CHILDREN" - AT VARIOUS POINTS ON THE LEARNING CURVE OF TECHNOLOGY" ???  (I know I've still got a lot to learn and I've been at it for... well since 1970!)

Hopefully the information presented here will help provide solutions to some of today's automation challenges. Some issues are probably old, some are probably new. Many are products of the economy, the resultant reduction in manpower, exacerbated by aging equipment crippled by decreases in maintenance budgets.  The ULTIMATE goal here is that we all become more successful in our careers and chosen professions.

      MAYBE THIS FORUM CAN HELP!!!

Re: Hitachi EM II memory

The Hitachi EMII series has three different types of memory modules. They are:
MPM-2R: 2k word EPROM
MPM-1E: 1k word EEPROM
MPM-2E: 2/4k word EEPROM

After the initial writing, the EPROM will not allow further programming, program modifications, changes, etc. Exposure to a U/V source will “wipe” the chip, allowing it to be reprogrammed. The way you describe the problem, leads me to believe you may have EPROM memory.

THE MPM-1E and MPM-2E are EEPROM, which do allow for multiple writing (just like RAM). The MPM-1E provides 1k (970) words. the MPM-2E provides 2k words of memory when used in the CPM-E and CPM-E2 processors. When the MPM-2E is used in the CPM-E3 processor, 4k (3,997) words can be addressed.

I hope this helps with your project.
