Will your string have values in on the plc or do you need to type in messages on Vijeo designer? -

Sorry the above method can only give 255 messages in one text resource. Let me check for another solution -
How to show multiple values in a StringDisplay?
cHud replied to wlederer's topic in Modicon / Telemecanique / Schneider Electric
Choose a message display block. As shown in picture. You need to create a text and colour resource (under resources) Then in the message display properties you need to select the colour and text resource you created and use the integer value as your variable in the message display block. No arrays needed. Just type your messages in the text resource next to the value of the integer -

Poteniometer or Slider Bar in Vijeo Designer 6.2
cHud replied to ChanceGuy's topic in Modicon / Telemecanique / Schneider Electric
According to hwat i know this is not possible. The closest thing you will get to a slider is using a horizontal,vertical or circular selector switch with certain amount of steps in it that will increment or decrement the value on touch -

M241 Modicon Modbus TCP Slave input register reading problem
cHud replied to Henry Watson's topic in Modicon / Telemecanique / Schneider Electric
I normally write the inputs and outputs to %MW or %M. Then you shouldnt have a problem. Not all modbus softwares allow all the modbus functions. But most should allow reading x3 and x4 which will be %mw and %m -

M251 COMMUNICATE TO A BARCODE READER
cHud replied to Ricardo Vargas's topic in Modicon / Telemecanique / Schneider Electric
You will have to read up on serial communication (ascii). Check the somachine pdf manuals for serial communication. I have done this successfully a few years back. Will find program and post screenshots -

How long is the string that you are using? Can you maybe give us the actual string value

Hi Tony What driver are you using?I suspect its modbus. Open the device (plc) comms settings in the IO manager in Vijeo Designer. Change the double word order to the other option

We often supply cabinets where our supply is prone for spikes. Using a control transformer reduces the damage that can be caused to the control side ( power supply or coil etc side). That is our main reason for installing them. If history is a yard stick then I wouldnt go without them in a 3 phase to single phase or 24vdc control cabinet. Even when supplied by single phase. Might be an overkill but doing things proper results in less problems. Often don't know the state of customers electical supply until there is a fault in your cabinet

send only hex number via rs232 serial line 1 M241
cHud replied to saruans's topic in Modicon / Telemecanique / Schneider Electric
try and just use the send function block and once done the receive....just a thought. Also you can convert dec to hex, hex to string etc just as you like in the plc. Its all binary in the end. Length of message might be an issue but unless knowing what device or model you are using I cannot be sure. Ps. the physical interface is the most important. if that isnt right you will not get any communication. -
