  1. License for RSLogix 500

    TimWilborne replied to xunilbama's topic in Allen Bradley / Rockwell Automation

    You'll need a Rockwell support contract...but first...what PLC is it?

  3. What software is required?

    TimWilborne replied to Moggie's topic in Allen Bradley / Rockwell Automation

    You'll need Studio 5000, as long as it is Ladder only, the Mini edition will take care of you.  It is about $500 for a 1 year subscription. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YpzDmpCsbHk
  4. Is the PLC's RUN light on?  My suspicion is you are in program mode.  While online is RsLogix 500, go to Communications then RUN mode.

    I jumped the gun locking this thread.  Discussion of bypassing passwords is prohibited but you didn't ask to do that, you have a unprotected program that you are trying to put into your password protected PLC.  When prompted, enter "65257636".  This will clear the PROGRAM.  Then you can download your new program.

    No, you can't get help bypassing password on this forum.

  11. STUDIO 5000

    Nice homework assignment. Post it when you're done and we might critique it. I just used ChatGPT to do a similar homework assignment. Maybe it can help. https://youtu.be/RDLy7YIXFcM

  13. Hi Lucas. I am the author. The three basic of pieces data you're going to need is the IP address, the data address which will probably begin with a 4, and the length of data that you're transferring.

  15. 1400 with 1762-IF4 AI card

    TimWilborne replied to Bryan Whitfield's topic in Allen Bradley / Rockwell Automation

    One other thought, does the 1400 have built in analog inputs?  I wonder what their update rate is.  Glad you like our videos!

    What are the "newer" PLCs that you've successfully done this on?

  18. I have a Panelview 600  with a RS232 . So this what i did , we had a output for a start station for a pump and also the HMI has a button to start the pump. The output was sticking in the processer so I changed the output address to a empty output on a external output module. everything works fine except the button in the HMI 600  doesnt  turn red are green to show the pump is on , but the pump does turn on and off. So i was wondering how to change a indicater tag in the HMI 600. 

    Thank you

    The Micro800 has come a LONG way in the last few years.  I have some videos setting up the communications but I'd guess you have that part down.  It is still messaging instructions, so no Ethernet I/O but I have several of them communicating with Controllogix with no issues.  Also, version 20 is out now (they skipped from 13 to 20).  I have downloaded it but haven't played with it yet.  I would urge you to make sure they are running version 13 so that you have the Logix theme, it makes it more like Studio 5000.

  24. That would be my preferred method :) https://plctools.com/plc-tools-sim-ipe-ethernet-ip-address-explorer-dhcp-and-bootp-server/
  25. More likely the NAT is filtering the broadcast packets that Ethernet/IP uses for discovery.  I use Virtualbox so I'm not as familiar with VMWare but it seems like there were some setting about this.
