I need to replace a Relay card or rewrite the logic on a new PLC. Can anyone suggest a contact person or let me know what I need (cable & software) to download the logic from this old thing?

nope...not even on the local machine. It is the .rsv file in the startup. I can't even close the app. Even shutting down says please close rsview first so I have to hard boot.

Hi all, I have a customer with an RSView application connected live to a SLC 5/02 processor. they wanted another PC in another department to monitor it so I just installed a router and VNC connected to the other PC. this works flawlessly but RSView takes over the whole screen and I cannot minimize it. It launches in autostart with a /r switch. Does this have anything to do with it? How can I make it so it can be minimized? Thanks anyone. I'll take any ideas.

Hmmmm, so maybe Visio is the best option for me. I will look into TurboCAD though.

You nailed it man. Thanks a bunch.

can anyone recommend any software for building the panels to house the PLC system and all the components? To this point I've been using Visio but it's a fair bit of work.

Nice 1

I've done a fair bit with the Nano racks and HMI's. I do like them alot. LOVE the software. I'm working on a big transporter project now using the GV touch screen and 11 slot backplane.

I think you've got it. Thanks man. I did make a new program (just to clean up the code) but I never called it. I figured it would just execute anyway. Tomorrow I wall add the JSR and let you know. If that doesn't work, I have no problem posting the code. Thanks again.

I have N13:0 as my Control Tag and N10:13 as the Status tag. My ladder logic is moving 9 into N13:0. Remember , this works when I override in the data table. But N13:0 never gets updated by the Move. It's killin' me.

Hi all, I have a PV 900 and a SLC 5/02. I have my Control Tag as ScreenNum = N13:0, My ladder logic says If N10:48/0 (push button), Move 9 into N13:0. This won't switch the screen to #9. In fact, while online, it won't even Move 9 into the address. When I override in the Datatable, it switches screens just fine. Any ideas?
