  1. Hi all! After a long time... now I am back in the source... This amazing forum Now I'm developing an application with VB.Net and WinCE (handheld PC) and I need to communicate with a SLC 500... Usually, if i'm working in a PC, I install Rsling and configure a driver(serial, ethernet, DH or whatever) but i don't know if exists a RSLinx version for this environment, or if normal rslinx can work Could you tell me if it is possible?? Thanks in advance!!! Best Regards from Mexico!

  2. You can use a HMI in order to scan only alarm tags (I.E. WW InTouch or RSView) or even in excel, using an OPC Server like Kepware. Here in my job, we are monitoring all network using WW InTouch and this network is about 60 nodes.

  3. If you don't find the trial version, I have a copy and i can upload it in a free server, let me know if you want it. Additionaly, I can share a few manuals and example codes Regards!

  4. Hi, all Now I need to work with a TSX Micro 3721001 PLC But my demo version of PL7 Pro can't upload or modify the PLC program And I also have TwidoSoft ver.1.13 and ZelioSoft, my question is: Can I use one of these softwares to program my TSX Micro? Or I need exclusively the PL7 software??? If someone of you can provide me a full version of PL7 I'll be greatful I already have PL707, but I think this software is exclusive for TSX Nano Is it right??? Thanks in advance Regards!

  5. Have you tried to go online witha PC, or with the laptop connected to AC power? Because I found a similar problem with my laptop. When I am connected with a laptop powered only with the battery,after a few minutes, the connection is broken. Then I connect the laptop to AC supply, and the connection works fine. I suppose that, because the battery power is decreasing, it don't support the serial connection. Try it. It could works. Regards

  6. You can use a temperature controller with a dual output. With the 1st output you can control temperature and you can set the 2nd output inverted, i mean when the setpoint is reached, this output is enabled to reduce temp, but you must connect a timer, such as mgvol said in his post. I have experience with love controllers, specifically Love 16A (it costs about $300) http://www.mod-tronic.com/Love/pdf/16A_data_sheet.pdf But Automationdirect have a substitute for this one: http://web5.automationdirect.com/adc/Shopp...rs/TC33-2010-AC Regards!

  7. This is the file I have for S7-200 If you want drawings about other models, or you like this drawings in the original .dwg format, this is the page where I downloaded it: http://www4.ad.siemens.de/-snm-0135109872-...&objid=10860557 AutoCAD_pdf.zip

  8. Hi All! Someone of you have an example of a program for a redundant system using SLC's (or another AB PLC)? This is because I'm involved in development of a redundant system, but I'm not sure about what kind of instructions could use, I think about MSG instructions is good, but, if i can use another logical sequence, or another special instruction. Thanx a lot!

  9. Hi, all I have a question: Did you know about some barcode reader with discrete outputs? Let me explain you: I have a NAIs PLC which need to know if a number is right. This number is a barcode printed in a label, and this number is necessary to start the process. So, i know that NAIs didn't have the capability to keep string registers entered by serial port (like entered by a barcode reader). So I think about a barcode wich I can program the valid codes and this reader coud set an output if the codes are right. What do you think about this? I'll be very grateful by you comments or suggestions.

  10. Because DH-485 and DH+ are different protocols, your first solution is upgrade 5/03 to 5/04 processor. Probably your supplier for AB products could take your old 5/03 processor on change by a new 5/04, and decrease the final prize. Another option, i think, could be using a ProSoft module This company make communications modules to link different protocols (modbus to DH-485,df1 to modbus, etc) I believe they must have a communications module to match your requirements. Their homepage is http://www.prosoft-technology.com/

  11. Wich version of Windows and RSLinx are you using? A few time ago, I found the same problem, and reviewing the release notes of RSLinx, that version (2.20) wasn't compatible to work with 1747-PIC @ Win2000. When I upgraded RSLinx to 2.30, this problem was fixed.
