> Lastly I have tried setting the remote network table in Sysmac and have two different networks for the PLC and the PC running Node-RED but nothing helped.

They would/should be the same network

One thing i note - auto connect is disabled. Any reason? Are you commanding the node to connect as described in the built in help? I would recommend until you get up and running to leave "Auto Connect ` checked. FYI, in Node-RED, whenever you change a setting on a node, it is completely destroyed and re-created (i.e. connection is re-established with the new parameters you enter)

Did you check computer firewall?

Can you run wireshark to confirm packets are being sent?

Can you attach a debug (set to show complete msg) to the output of your FINS Read node. Also, add a catch node that is aimed at the FINS Read node & link that to a debug node (also set to show complete msg). Capture the full msg and post in a reply.

#### How to capture debug data for posting

There’s a great page in the docs ([Working with messages : Node-RED](https://nodered.org/docs/user-guide/messages)) that will explain how to use the debug panel to find the right path/value for any data item.

Pay particular attention to the part about the buttons that appear under your mouse pointer when you over hover a debug message property in the sidebar.

#### How to post well formatted code/json etc

In order to make code readable and usable it is necessary to surround your code with three backticks (also known as a left quote or backquote `````)

````auto
``` 
   code goes here 
```

````

You can edit and correct your post by clicking the pencil ✏ icon.
