  1. Factory Talk HMI tag source

    thank you for the reply BobLfoot. I've just returned to the office from vacation and will get back to my little problem tomorrow. I think I've got an idea of how to proceed. The problem area is in node 17 actually, but yes, the data table in that node is different from node 18 and 19. It's offset four bits and I am not sure why yet. Can't find any programmed instructions that would do that.
  2. Factory Talk HMI tag source

    I have a sequential starter with three E3 motor protectors on a DeviceNet. There is a problem in the Factory Talk View HMI. The Motor #1 data is not referenced properly. Motors #2 and #3 are accurate although the analog display meters are not set up yet. I do not understand why the tags in the Factory Talk Display Builder are nothing more than a hashtag and number... Example {#9}. I have included an image of the controller tags within Logix5000 for the three motors. It is easy to see from this image that the tags for the first motor are offset by one position from the tags in motors #2 and #3. They were offset by four positions until I edited a copy command from [0] to [3]. I tried to enter a [4] to adjust the tags to their correct position but get an error message (Invalid array subscript specifier). Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Michael,
