FactoryTalk View ME - Test application

9 posts in this topic

Hi

I am trying to test my application before transferring it to HMI.

But All I see is question marks or Errors.

I have checked RSLinx enterprise communication set up and its pointing to right controller.

Is there something else I should check?

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks

Did you copy the "design? to the "runtime"?

Can you post a couple of screen shots?

Hopefully you realize that the IPs differ from the design and the runtime tabs?  Design is pointed at 103.220 and runtime is pointed at 105.220.

Then you need to investigate the PLC code for the items appearing in the list.  Usually, it means that the tagname is not in the PLC to access or possibly the wrong tag type or the syntax is incorrect.

Also, make sure you can ping the PLC from the PC where you're trying to test the screen.  I've found it's best to use the tag browser when linking an on-screen object to the PLC to make sure the path is right.  That only works when your View Studio PC can see the PLC.  If your PC can't see the PLC, you won't be able to test the screen with actual values.
