NJ and CJ1W-EIP21 User Defined Variable Issue

3 posts in this topic

I'm attempting to create User Defined Variables for my CJ1W-EIP21 so that I may get the connection status of each of my EIP nodes. W495 (Operation Manual for NJ Series CPU Unit, CJ1W-EIP21) states you must Right Click on the unit and select Register Data Types for Units then change the Status Area Setting to User Setting and assign a variable.

After Registering the Data Type (then compile) I get the following error:

EIP_21_BuildErr.jpg.03bd1f7654ab814a5121

I've tried this in different combinations and always get the error after Registering. I have a working example in another project and cannot find the difference.

1) Is there a method of getting more details for the error? The Output window just shows Build Failed starting with the Data Types then failing everything else after it.

2) Is there a section in the project where I may see this newly registered Data Type? I don't see it in the working project either.

3) Is there a method to Unregister this Data Type? Once I Register, I cannot go back nor can I find any means of preventing this error.

 

Thanks.
