  1. Keypad in GT Designer

    could you add a drop down list to select which variable to focus on for your keypad?
  2. Keypad in GT Designer

    you could try putting an invisible button over the box that contains the value you want to edit, then use a tag to highlight or enable input from the keypad. seems like a lot of work to me though. How many individual variables are you trying to edit?
  3. Float Value FX2N Problem

    This is a bit out of my scope of experience sorry. Could you try splitting the number up to two 32 bit reals? 8192.00 and 0.0003? then use once minute intervals (0.0003*60) for your instruction? and just use the flow per second in your display? youll lose some precision(not much). If youre doing a medical application or making rocket fuel you should avoid that. But if youre working on a dough mixer or something it should be fine.

    Can you post your ladder? Also if I remember correctly, the first 127 words arent battery backed so they reset every power cycle.
  5. Wireless programming fx3g

    Some of the bluetooth transmitters say no drivers required in the description. Ill try a few out since theyre so cheap and report back if it works.
  6. Wireless programming fx3g

    Hello, Can I get a laptop usb bluetooth receiver and a usb-> mini usb adapter and plug the bluetooth receiver into the programming port of a fx3g PLC for wireless melsec software connections? Seems like it would be a nifty little addition to any panel.  https://www.amazon.com/Bluetooth-Adapter-Wireless-Compatible-Computers/dp/B071WKP37Q/ref=asc_df_B071WKP37Q/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=309751315916&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=14775611605752866986&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9058221&hvtargid=pla-761431569272&psc=1&tag=&ref=&adgrpid=67183599252&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvadid=309751315916&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=14775611605752866986&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9058221&hvtargid=pla-761431569272 https://www.amazon.com/Ksmile%C2%AE-Female-Adapter-SamSung-tablets/dp/B01C6032G0/ref=asc_df_B01C6032G0/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=309833041189&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=3896490646336226374&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9058221&hvtargid=pla-567647287320&psc=1
  7. Hello, We have a FX3G connected to a FX3U-ENET-ADP inside a main cabinet. We are then using that master PLC to collect data from 2 other fx3g plcs in a node:node serial network. I was assigned a small project of pricing out some wireless adapters so we can upload/download to the two slave plcs. My question is, is it possible to upload/download programs to/from the slave plcs through the ENET adapter and serial network in the main plc? It would save us some money if possible. thanks.
