  3. NX1P2 CPU Clock Speed?

    I could probably find out for you - but why would you need this out of curiosity?
  4. Does anyone know what the clock speed of NX1P2 CPU is? I could not find this info anywhere. Cheers!
  5. Here.. DRAGSILL_LH_20171013_UPP.pdf
  6. I replied to your PM.
  7. RSS to pdf conversion

    Hi I am new here. I see that some people have had the same issue I have. Is there anyone who can make this file into a PDF DRAGSILL_LH_20171013_upp.RSS
  8. Detect CF memory card activity

    Hi! I'm looking for a way to detect if/when a backup has been made to the CF memory card and a way to detect if a backup has been written from the CF memory card to the PLC memory. A counter, a time/date, etc? In short: detect backup and/or restore Application: Trigger an audit log event on a seperate system Any known solutions?
  9. The Firmware is 1.290  (Attached photo) Thanks for the diagnostics codes. Image (1).jfif
  10. Simple CPU Communication TCP Time out

    Which Firmware are you running ?   As for Dianostics:
  11. Buttons with graphics in NA

    I know this is an old post, but I don't think with the NA screens you can overlap two buttons. Only one button will work, the one in front. I've tried this in the past and couldn't get it to work like it does on the NB screens. Maybe someone can correct me if I'm wrong.
  12. Hi! A have a question about how can I send the current User data from the Panelview (HMI) to the PLC. Its an allen bradley PLC 1756 L71. In the Factory Talk view I tried to make a register and to move in it the current user, but unfortunatelly its not working. Is anybody here who can help me with this ? Thanks ahead. Br.
  13. Last week
  14. Can you not add an invisible button that writes to the PLC when you press the language change button.
  15. Yes, it is Modbus TCP/IP
  16. Simple CPU Communication TCP Time out

    Port 502 - is it Modbus TCP/IP?
  17. How to Connect Beijer E300 Terminal to Mitsubishi FX5U

    I'm in process of connecting E200 to FX5U, and it seems that, even with FX5-422-BD it is not possible. Most likely I will change HMI driver to Modbus RTU and adapt both apps.
  18. Is it possible to connect an old Beijer E300 terminal to a Mitsubishi FX5U base unit via a serial interface (RS422 or RS485)? And which protocols do I need to select?
  19. @asteroidehk I am curious the PLC String tag you're trying to write to.  What is its .len data item value? If zero have you tried loading something non-zero and see what happens.
  20. Hello The language changes OK in the panel with Language Switch Button. I need to let the PLC to know which language is active in the Panel. Controller Tag:                           Type Current_Language_String        String Current_Language                     DINT I have FactoryTalk View ME v11 I have a string display in the panel that shows en-US or es-MX according the language selected, but I cant send this to the PLC. I have done many combinations without success. Thanks in advance
  21. 12 hour long Timer Function - NX1P2

    Thank you DonNH, this is exactly what I was looking for!
  22. I have a setup the contains the following components that are locally connected through an Ethernet switch: FX5U PLC ------------------------ IP: 192.168.10.10 GOT GS2107 -------------------- IP: 192.168.10.18 2x DAQ LabJack T7 pro ------ IP: 192.168.10.13     and      192.168.10.15 My laptop ------------------------- IP: 192.168.10.11 I am using the DAQs to be able to read many Analog signals. The DAQs working as servers, which the PLC is the client which are connected through Simple CPU Communication function in Gx Works3. The PLC is reading the holding registers in the DAQs at a specific timing rate (100ms default). I tested the communication and it is working good. Here is the problem: If the laptop is connected to the network during the communication, the communication is time out after a some time (few minutes up to like 30 minutes). I checked this through the Simple CPU Communication Diagnostics as shown in the photo. I don't know why this happening. I tried many things including: 1. Reduce the communication execution interval. Instead of 100ms, I changed it to be 200ms. -------- Still have the same issue. 2. I tried to avoid connecting the laptop to the Ethernet network by connecting the PLC through the GOT which has a USB port, and it is working without timeout. I mean I can program, monitor, and watch the PLC by the laptop through the USB connection to the GOT. However, I want to log some data using the CPU Module Configuration Tool software, which supports only Ethernet connection to the PLC. Also, I want to use the real time monitoring through the GX Logviewer software, which also supports Ethernet connection only. 3. I have setup the External Device configuration to have MELSOFT Connection module and two active connection module, but still have the same issue. Another annoying point is that I cannot detect the status of the connection. I have to keep watching the Simple CPU Communication diagnostics. Could you please help me to solve this issue.

  23. "Send current language to PLC"?  Are you trying to change the language on the HMI displays? Or are you trying to let the PLC know when the HMI display language has changed? Is this for FactoryTalk ME or SE? (I'm assuming SE, but want to be sure).
  24. Hello Friends   I have 2 languages in my app, en-US, es-MX.   I need to send CurrentLanguage to PLC, I am trying with Macro in Global Connections but without sucess.   I am trying to send the string like "en-US" or "es-MX".   Also I am trying to send a DINT like 0 for english, 1 for spanish, but neither works   These are my expressions:    {[PLC]Current_Language_String}=(CurrentLanguage())   If (CurrentLanguage( ) == "en-US")  Then ({[PLC]Current_Language}=0)  Else ({[PLC]Current_Language}=1)   I have tried a lot of combinations but without sucess.   Can you help me?   Thanks in advance
  25. RSLOGIX 500 TAGS ---> GTWORKS 3

    I would expect you to need to use the SLC500 driver for that one.
  26. RSLOGIX 500 TAGS ---> GTWORKS 3

    It's a MicroLogix 1500 (1764-24AWA ) , and thanks for the response !
  27. RSLOGIX 500 TAGS ---> GTWORKS 3

    Which model MicroLogix?  One of the new ML8xx family?  If so, you will need to use Control/CompactLogix(Tag) mode, for access to some global variables, or assign Modbus addresses within the ML8xx program.
  28. @Dadde for testing you maybe use MX Component with MX OPC Server (or OPC UA Server if need) that could access with GX Simulator 3 then connect with your SCADA with OPC driver.
