How to restore a Library .SLR file to a Library Project

Now if we could just do the reverse process of this, I'd be a happy camper. LOL -
How to restore a Library .SLR file to a Library Project
Chris Elston replied to Chris Elston's topic in NJ Series / Sysmac Studio
I have version 1.25 of Studio right now. It seems to allow saving the library file. I will try and create a new Library Project and see if I can copy things into it..... -

How to restore a Library .SLR file to a Library Project
Chris Elston posted a topic in NJ Series / Sysmac Studio
A while ago, I created a library project and a function block. After I was finished, I exported my library to a .SLR file. Of course the laptop I made the library project on has been replaced and I lost my original library project, however I have the .SLR library file. I would like to restore my library project and edit some features in my function block I made. Is it possible to restore my library project from an .SLR or I also have a project that I imported my .SLR library into this standard project? My goal is, can I restore my library project file and how do you do that in Sysmac Studio? -

Allen Bradley Ethernet/IP Mapping Size Limit?
Chris Elston replied to Chris Elston's topic in Allen Bradley / Rockwell Automation
I have NOT gotten Large Forward Open to work with ANY Compact Logix. I was told that a Control Logix and 1756-EN2T(R) can do it, but I haven't a project that requires a Control Logix to confirm it. At this time, I agree with @pturmel above, I have not been able to get any Rockwell products to support this feature of Ethernet/IP. -

Panel View 5000 vs Panel View Plus 7
Chris Elston posted a topic in Allen Bradley / Rockwell Automation
I am spec'in a new job and wondered what you guys thought about the Pane View 5000 series with the new integrated software into Studio 5000? Or should I just stick with the trusty-old Panel View Plus 7 and my ME Studio software. Anyone have any good success or problems with the 5000 Panel Views? -

Panel View Time and Date Stamp Display in an Array
Chris Elston replied to Chris Elston's topic in Allen Bradley / Rockwell Automation
It's looking like I am gunna have to do it this way, along with concatenating the DINTS into a DINT to STRING for a "time-date" stamp. I always hope for the best and make sure I didn't miss something that might have been added like a new feature or firmware update that I overlooked. -

Panel View Time and Date Stamp Display in an Array
Chris Elston posted a topic in Allen Bradley / Rockwell Automation
Checking to see what might be some methods to capture a time and date stamp into an array element, then display that on a panel view? Right now I have a 100 element array, I want to treat this 100 element array like a log file. I have EPOCH time setup in this program, so I can capture the EPOCH into the log. Is there an EPOCH to Time/Date display or function in a Panel View trick somewhere maybe? Any other ideas for how you guys have handled that one? -
Panel View Performance Indirect Addressing TAGs?
Chris Elston replied to Chris Elston's topic in Allen Bradley / Rockwell Automation
Bob, Yes so see here this Panel View TAG: {[PLC]ML_DataBase.Display[0].RemainService} I want an indirect address where the ZERO is. {[PLC]ML_DataBase.Display[myvar].RemainService} I was just checking to see if I missed any updates or not that would allow this. -
Panel View Performance Indirect Addressing TAGs?
Chris Elston posted a topic in Allen Bradley / Rockwell Automation
Does anyone know if Allen Bradley has added Indirect Addressing to PanelView Tags yet? I didn't hear anything in a while, but I thought I would ask in case I missed any new releases. -
Hello again. I forgot to ask if you are the one that had a DC Sensor Hookup Tester that had a diagram for NPN and PnP sensors. Would you please send me the link if it was from you. I would like to make my own tester. The manufacurer ones are too expensive. Thank you.
