Yes - there is TST and TSTn (test not).

There are several Omron drivers for Citect. OMFINS I think is an old one that is why I suggested you have a look at this one. I could find them all easily on the old website - the Aveva website is a pain in the you know what!

Have you had  look at this? https://softwaresupportsp.aveva.com/#/producthub/details?id=abe15288-1322-4707-e2a5-08d8f5e80cc6 I am over the Aveva website crap to be honest - the old website was much better and easier to navigata. hope this helps.

Google - easy. https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=arial+unicode+ms+font

First check the cable - pin 1 is negative and pin 2 is positive on the Omron side if I remember correctly.

It just means always on.

Here is a link to the Gautami font - download it and install in Windows on your laptop/computer. Similar for the bold form. https://fontzone.net/font-details/gautami

It could well be a firmware version issue. Check to see if there is a difference in the firmware with Omron. Easiest way would be to take a pic of the label and send to Omron.

I think I know where you are coming from. All numbers have to be converted to floating point before you can us them for floating point maths. Integers do not work. Use FLT or FLTL to do the conversion.

Try updating your software - I just did an update and ConfiguratorFDT updated itself.

It may be a dud file - would not be the first time a supplier has supplied a dud file. Happened all the time with Device Net. Used to have to massage them all the time - even often the I/O size was wrong!

I have never used debug mode but probably the PLC has to be in monitor mode and not run mode. Switch to monitor and give it a try.

TIM is a time on timer - for a time off you will have to make your own. It is not difficult. The value to put into the timer is in BCD with # in front of it. If you are using a binary  time it id TIMX and the value is decimal with & in front of it.

You need to use the client FB - server is slave - client is master.

Put the data into a data memory and use the data memory as the number reference in the counter - or timer. They will only accept numbers though - BCD on the old ones and decimal on the new ones.
