Unity Pro M addressing

2 posts in this topic

How would I find the decimal format of the following addresses. I am setting up a Red Lion HMI with Crimson 3.0 and the requirement is for it to be in decimal format as such: %MW00000 %M1 %M2 %M3 %M4 %M5 %M6 %M7 %M8 %M9 %M10 %MW0.0 %MW0.1 %MW0.2 %MW0.3 %MW0.4 %MW0.5 %MW0.6 %MW0.7 %MW0.8 %MW0.9 %MW0.10 %MW0.11 %MW0.12 %MW0.13 %MW0.14 %MW0.15 %MW1.0 %MW1.2 %MW1.3 %MW1.4 %MW11

I'm not familiar with the Unity Pro, but it looks to me like all the addresses are bit level. Crimson 3.0 handles bit-level addressing a little differently than you might be used to. You create a flag tag, put the "head" address as the data-source, then select which bit you want to look at in the drop-down box. So for example, for address MW1.4 I think you'd put in MW1 as the data source and bit 4 in the drop down box. For the M addresses (M1, M5, etc.), it depends on how Unity Pro handles data. You might be required to pack the bits into a word somehow. You might try calling Red Lion tech support, they should be able to help you.
