Hi All, I need to start PLC Data Logging using an SD card in the CPU module for an iQ-R PLC. I have not attempted this kind of logging before and I was wondering about any restrictions on the type of SD cards that can be used. The documentation I have found says "SD/SDHC memory card: 32Gb maximum". Does anyone know why can't I use a 64 GB SD card ? (maybe due to addressing limitations?) Also, when I look for SD cards, I see different speeds of data transfer such as 120 MB/s or 100 MB/s and I was wondering if there is any difference as far as the logging is concerned. Does anyone know if there are any other restrictions, brands that don't work? Useful tips? Cheers

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?

I have a problem with PLC not seeing the input. I am using a FX3S, however, because I still am using GX Developer, it will only recognise it as a FX1N. My problem is I did a small programme for an alarm on a "Blow Down" system for filter cleaning on Silos. Tested it at home with a cyclic timer, everything working fine. Got the controller this afternoon and found I had a problem. It looks like it's not seeing the input to reset the time out timer. Worked for a while, then fell over. Using X0. The switching time I am monitoring is 20msec, which I thought would not be a problem. This is going to be a major setback for me with this project. Eight of these controllers. Any help would be great.

Good day sirs, i would like to see your help with this our company owns multiple HMI Omron NS8 it seems that this unit always break in the site. we fixed one of the unit but it is only showing white screen is this possible that there no CF connected inside the HMI? ( note i was newly hired by the company wanting to help my superiors) thank you in advance everyone

Hi I'm quite new to plc but very new to mitsubishi. I have an input string eg G+002.7 which represents a weight. I wish to take in the input string then move/convert to int omitting first char, On other plc's i have been able to use a modifier like d200[2] then the no of chars. How do i achieve this in gx works3 Any feedback gratefully recieved Paul

Hi,I want to read transducer signal on PLC.I am using 7kg60008ab/nn transducer and it's analog (4-20mA) output is connected with analog meter.Can I connect the transducer current output (4-20mA) signal to PLC analog input in series with analog meter display???So that I can read the value on PLC simultaneously with analog meter?

Hello to everyone. Nice to meet you all. How are you? I hope you are doing well. I’m developing a program with the purpose of make something similar to a pulse train in the output. However, sometimes I need the output to be a “positive” pulse and sometimes a “negative” one. By positive and negative I mean the polarity in relation to the pulse train source. I’m trying to use a pair of bits in order to switch between the two choices of polarities. I attach a simplified version of the ladder diagram I’ve made. When I thought about the logic, it seemed logical to me, however, it isn’t working as supposed. SM0.4 is a pulse train source. According to the software manual, it is a pulse train with 50% duty cycle and a cycle time of 2 s. That it to say it says at TRUE for one second and return to FALSE for another second. I assign the value of that variable bit to the M0.0 memory bit. I get the negative version of the pulse train logically negating it in the Network #2. I assign the value of two inputs, I0.0 and I0.1, to other two memory bits, M0.1 and M0.2. · When both inputs are in a FALSE state, the output stays FALSE, disregarding the state of SM0.4. (Case #1) · When I0.0 is TRUE, M0.1 is TRUE. However, Q0.0 stays at FALSE no matter SM0.4 is TRUE or FALSE. I attach a pair of pictures. (Case #2) · On the other side, when I0.1 is TRUE, M0.2 is TRUE. In this case, the output shows the correct behavior. It is the negated version of the pulse train source. (Case #3) Has any of you experienced something similar? Is there a better way to execute my purpose? I’m not executing the program, just simulating it with KincoBuilder from Kinco. However, it has always worked fine for me. Thanks for you attention. I look forward for your responses. Kind regards!

Hello PLCmaniaccccssss, What is the unit of time in 'average time for the channel -1' (D8284) while programming for analog inputs? I have moved k10 to D8284 in my program in gxworks 2, does that mean the time average will be taken for 1Sec or 10msec or any other time unit??? I require this to eliminate the flickering of the input from the load cell transmitter. Thanks and God bless!!!

1734 IE8C 8 Channel Analog Input scaling
jpratik92 posted a topic in Allen Bradley / Rockwell Automation
Hello all, I have a temperature sensor with a reading range of 10F to 212 . The input card I am using is an Allen Bradley 1734 IE8C 8 Channel Analog current input. The current input values are 4-20 mA. Currently I have my raw low at 4000 and raw high at 20000. Can anyone explain how do we go about selection of this values ? I found these values in the configuration tag of the input card properties. Thank You -
I have a piece of machinery that has multiple PNOZ m1p units that communicate to each other. My trouble is that the base units versions vary from 5.6 to 6.5 and we found a programmed SD in the older base versions will not run properly in the later base units. We don't have the software and frankly, taking on the liability of the machines safety if we reimage the chip to newer software (which we also don't have) is not in our best interest. The company that created the system may not service the system anymore thus rendering the 3/4 million dollar machine down to scrap metal. Anyone know where I can get a base version list which os sd cards are compatible (ex..but not exact...for reference only...V5.6 to V6.2 will work, but upgrade required at V6.5 base)? From this we can add up the upgrades and propose full replacements. It was a great idea, but can be crippling with the way technology changes. Thanks, Mike

GuyMiller posted a topic in Allen Bradley / Rockwell Automation
I currently have a Rosemount 87 series flow meter connected to a 1756-IF8H analog input module.. We are not receiving flow from the device, and the channel is showing a diagnostic code of 009... I can not find a diagnostic code list anywhere explaining what this means, has anyone had any experience with the diagnostic codes for HART Devices? -
NA SD Card Transfer Getting OS Version Mismatch
TigerLily posted a topic in NJ Series / Sysmac Studio
I am having some trouble at a customer's site getting a program transferred from an SD Card to update the HMI program in an NA Screen. I am not there but when the customer tried to transfer the new code they got a message "OS Version Mismatch - Install OS 7.4.0 the user program expects." I am not sure what to advise them because I can't find this when I search the NA manuals. Any help would be greatly appreciated, I am in NY and they are in China so I can not even reach out to Omron Tech Support right now because they are closed. I attached a screen shot of the HMI. Thank you!!! -
Hi guys, So I found that CH2 on Q68ADG is abnormal. Whenever I short the termination, the digital value goes max to 4096. Input is set to 4-20mA with normal resolution. I tried to simulate 4mA-20mA but still same result. Does this mean the CH2 is damaged? Equipment at site is normal and give 5mA signal. Thanks!

Hello. I have a system in which an A1S68AD card is used, that card has been damaged . I replace that damaged card with the new A1S68AD card with same wiring and same setting of dip switch. But at channel number 3 there is a RTD connected which gives 4-20 mA signal. But in Plc at channel number 3 the data register is showing -2400 fixed value all the time and in actual the temperature is varying. But PLC SHOWS FIXED VALUE OF -2400. PLEASE HELP ME OUT.

analog output card 1734-OE2V parameters, fault/actions, program mode
Jiggadoo posted a topic in Allen Bradley / Rockwell Automation
I have an analog output card 1734-OE2V and there is in the fault/actions page parameters for program mode. What is program mode and when it is activated? Fault mode is clear but... Program should be written the value, but when this happens? -

This is a 1756-IF8 rev 1.5 Analog Input module. This has happened a couple times where the Module Input Data, (not mapped), goes to the high limit and freezes (Data Monitor data is static). Plant operators pointed out the trending wasn't accurate. There is no fault on the module, no yellow triangle on the system tree for the module. The Module properties show no faults, and RUNNING. I have done a "Reset Module" both times, (Module Properties - Module Info tab), while monitoring the module data. As soon as it resets, instantly the Data Monitor starts showing live data. I'm going to try and replace the module at first, but I have some concerns. Has anyone run into this before? I can't seem to find any information on the "Reset Module" animation, and what it actually does. Any information, (or where to look), would be appreciated. I don't like to hot swap, but I believe I will need to in this case, (utility). Will the current properties, e.g. scaling transfer to the new module? Thanks Dave Redman

I have an 8 point analog input card on a rack with a SLC 5/04 CPU. It has been in operation for 20 years or so. There have been some power problems at site lately and ever since they fixed them I have been having issues with 3 of the 4-20mA circuits on this card showing open circuit. I have had my meter on them when they show open circuit. The signal reads 3.96mA, just below the 4mA minimum and boom, the machine goes down. Is there a way to adjust this tolerance?? I don't think there is anything wrong with the 3 transmitters so the error is just a nuisance.
