  1. How to run program even the signal is stopped

    Hi Zubair You can try this. Change M0 if you already use it elsewhere in the program. The sequence will run when X3 goes high and will continue to run until T3 times out. M0 keeps the sequence running, even if X3 turns OFF during the running of the sequence. Good luck.  
  2. E710 HMI Firmware

    Hope someone can help. I need to roll back a E710 HMI from v6.10 firmware to v5.01. I have the .bin files for all other versions of the firmware, but not for 5.01.......typical eh? If someone out there has a copy, please get in touch. Thanks

    Just checked my version number Ver 1.64S. What version are you running karre_t?

    Must be my version then! Thanks. Any idea on the variable update issue?
  5. iQ Works Q & A

    Anybody know if it's possible, in structured programming mode, to sort the GVL by device? In GX IEC you just clicked on the column heading and it sorted automatically. GX Works 2 doesn't appear to do this. Also, I'm used to the labels auto extern feature, which seems to be missing in GXW2. If I alter the name or spelling of an existing variable, it doesn't get updated in the POUs that it's been used in. Any help on that one too?

    Hi KenE I've imported GX IEC Dev projects (Q Series) into GXW2 and not had a problem with the monitoring. I see you found the 'Find UnUsed Vars' a useful tool too. Just keeps up with the housekeeping!!!!!! My version of IEC Dev is 7.03 if that helps. Hope you get it sorted.
  7. iQ Works Q & A

    I am using GXW2 in Structured programming mode. In fact the project in question was imported from a GX IEC Dev project. I've made a few mods to the code using GXW2 but I'm aware there are a few unused vars that were declared during this mod that are no longer used. I could keep searching through the local and global var lists, but that's such a time consuming method. As I say IEC Dev has a tool that does that for you. I think I might be going back to using IEC Dev. Although GXW2 looks more slick, there are features missing from it (not just find unused vars) that make using it a bind. Hopefully Mitsi will sort it out.
  8. iQ Works Q & A

    Hi, hope you can help. I'm using GXW2 ver 1.48A. GXW2 isn't available in the UK yet (My colleague in the US gave me this copy) so support isn't available. The problem I have is the finding of unused variables to tidy up a program. In GX IEC Dev there is a function to find unused vars. This appears to be missing from GXW2. Does anyone know how to find vars that have been declared, but aren't actually used within a project? I spoke to Mitsi UK and the answer was "we don't know". I could search for them using the find tool, but I'd need to know the names of the vars that I'm looking for. Seems quite an omission if that tool has been removed. Cheers.
  9. iQ Works Q & A

    Hi GX Works 2 isn't officially available here in the UK for the next few months, but I have a time limited demo version that I've been looking at (1.40S) which I downloaded from the Mitsi site. I've posed a question to Mitsi UK, but no definitive answer as yet. My question regards the editing of a label name (local or global variable) in a structured program. In IEC Dev you could edit the name of a declared var (local or global) to correct a spelling mistake or if you decided the label wasn't fitting. When you closed the variables window the software would update all instances of that label. From what I've found GX Works2 doesn't do this. Can anyone advise me if this has been addressed yet, or is going to be addressed. It was a very handy feature, shame it appears to have been left out. The only work-a-round I can see is using the find / replace!!
