Yeah this isn't a complicated project it's just me being green to DeviceNet and that I don't actually get the DNet to add the new drive to the scan list and set the I/O until Thursday afternoon when this has to be running Friday morning for the dog and pony show. Thanks again for helping

Here is what I am told I will be using..haven't seen it yet https://my.mitsubishi-automation.com/downloads/view/doc_loc/1393/158048.pdf?id=1393&saveAs=0&form_submit=View+now https://my.mitsubishi-automation.com/downloads/view/doc_loc/1777/162641.pdf?id=1777&saveAs=0&form_submit=View+now I did download the EDS and I will see if I can see the drive on the network tomorrow but I can't really test much for control since they are running production. Thanks for the reply Ken.

I don't think you can rotate text in FT even using animation but again I could be wrong. I think the only way to get the text to be the way you want is to import as an image or an object that you created in word or paint. Hope this helps.

I think you meant OTU at the end of file 2 and I would think the math overflow is a programing issue and not a field device but I have been wrong before.

You should install at least V17 and all version in between just in case you run into this again. Also, you need to install them in order and they are up to V19 now. Hope this helps.

Welcome Which RSLogix are you using 5, 500 or 5000 and can you post the code and tell us what you are looking for?

Nope the CTU ACC exceeding the PRE should not fault the controller.

Edit added another page 1769-Of4VI Second page.pdf

I think you need to check your SCP numbers for your outputs Here is a sheet that should work for the card..if not someone will come along and correct me. 1769-Of4VI.pdf

Thank you.

What is FactoryLink ? I have never heard of it.

So do you need -10 to +10 VDC out?

Sorry I haven’t replied I have been getting it handed to me hard on a job right now. Thank you for the recommendations.

I'm looking for printer recommendations to do 11x17 prints for home use. Any pros or cons are appreciated. Thanks, Bob

Sammy, I can't help you on the analog but have you looked at Ron's site for training....Here is a link and watch the videos. Ron is the best around! http://www.ronbeaufort.com/sample_lessons.htm

Yes I have done it before in the past without much hassle. If you can post your project or send me a pm with your email and I'll have a look if you like. Welcome to the forum

If I understand you... Do you have a datalog set up for the tags in the trend and are the pens pointed to this datalog? Is the datalog running? Is the data base on the same computer and if not, are both computers set for the same time? Screen shots would help me at least. Hope this helps

I want to set-up my own computer lab for my own training in networking and software install since we/I seen to be getting more involved in it. Has anyone purchase used computers and if so could you recommend a company? I would like to have a total of three computers if possible. Thanks

Well my lab is coming along really well. I am up to four computer all networked together and things are working well. Pick-up a new 1.5 TB HD for my main one and am now getting all my software loaded on to it. Also, I picked up my 3 Dell computers on Craigs List that had been reloaded with XP Pro still with the stickers for $50 each and $10 for a flat screen. Can anyone recommend a free easy to use virtual floppy drive? I found one and am using it but would be interested in what others point me to. Thanks,

The upper right-hand corner is the search box with a gear looking icon. Click on that and I think that is what you are looking for..assuming you have that search box and the little gear looking icon. Hope this helps

Sorry. That is the only way we have done it so I can't help with another format.

What have you tried and or what errors do you get? http://www.plctalk.net/qanda/showthread.php?t=59288

Thanks to all that have replied. My goal is three computers with two acting as servers and exchanging data and one client with access to both with access to all through a KVM. I normally work wit RA products so that is my target software to test with since I have a problem breaking the install and it seems that I have to be an IT person to complete some installs. I am not knocking the RA software just looking to improve knowledge. I would at sometime like to work with the open source and VM software but right now customers aren't using it in production for the most part. Russ – I am an odd person in that I don't use ebay but your post did make me think of looking on CL for local used computers. Thanks again and sorry it took so long to reply.
