Can anyone help me find where is recipe plus or recipe manager in View desginer(studio 5000) software. i want to create an recipe but i am unable to find a recipe manager .

Hi paul the data type was string earlier. with len [82] which wasn't sufficient, so i created new string called strings and assigned the new data type. Then this happened. If I do it to string back again there is no Errors then. Thank You

Hello @pturmel I created a Datatype Strings with length 150 but when i used it , it says few errors. I am not sure why I work more on Omron PLCs so have not got much experience with studio5000 . i have attached screeshots can you please tell me what are they and what they mean? Also this program was created by someone else.  I am using the created strings for different Tag but why is it affecting DataType ALARM_DIGITAL TAGS? ERR : BASE TAG IS NOT VERIFIED ERR : ASSOCIATED TAG MUST BE A BOOL, SINT, DINT,LINT OR STRING DATA TYPE ERR : TAG DOESN'T REFRENCE VALID OBJECT OR TARGET

THANK  YOU

Thank you, out office for today the very first thing I will do tomorrow will be reading first and then writing. I don't know if these blocks are actually accessing the index and sub index and writing to it,

I want  increase the length of string from 82 to 150. By default it comes 82 is it possible to do so in Studio 5000

I have an Omron NX PLC  NX1p2 which Supports EtherCAT . also I have Balluff BNI00HA Ecat Block(IOlink Master). I have setup communications and connected a BNI004K balluff I/O device. I managed to get inputs and i can read it as well. but to set the pins of BNI004K as outputs i have to configure the module by accessing its Index and Subindex. I tried with IOLwrite Block but it says 16#4802 error. Also an Engineer from balluff suggested me to use CoE block but while reading the description is said CAN over EThercat. WHile my devices are IOLINK.. If Anyone can Help.Please. SS1 - Is the error I am getting on IOLink instruction SS2 - Is what i did. which is an IOlink Write block from Omron SS3 - is what balluff Engineer suggested.

thank you all guys.

Can we only write Value to string When Online??

I HAVEN'T USED STUDIO5000 MUCH SO NOT FAMILIAR WITH IT. CAN YOU SEND A SCREENSHOT SHOWING HOW? WHAT I HAVE DONE IS CREATED A STRING AND I CAN MOVE VALUES FROM ONE TO ANOTHER.. BUT IF I CREATE AN ARRAY WHERE DO I WRITE MY TEXTS TO THE WHOLE ARRAY AT ONCE?

Well then in that case I will make an AOI and use them wherever required.

Then how come we move or copy strings(texts) in studio 5000

yes the firmware is 34.11 but the one without error is a 5069-l320 PLC and the one with error is 1769-L36erms. 

I am noticing a problem where i am using MOV instruction and writing literal text into source and String datatype in destination. It works fines in one program but doesn't on another it show an error Invalid Data Type. Argument must match Parameter Data type. I know what the error is and why but my question is why is it working perfectly fine in 1 program and not on another.
