I give you a list (pdf file) of possible configuration to help you to find the cable you need. the gif file is the pinout for a couple of cable.... Hint -> 1761-CBL-PM02 (micrologix connector DIN 8) cable can be made with a macintoch serial cable (with two dremel knoch!) good luck.... cable_configuration.pdf

like I said, I can do it

I think you don't need RSLink for download / upload to standart panelview.

Do you use MGS instruction in your network ? For raise speed of your network you can reduce the quantity of node to be browse LEAVE NODE FOR YOUR PC!!!. Type your max node adresse in Channel configuration windows [picture] If only one slc 5/03 have MGS instruction, you may raise the token hold factor [picture] For more help, give us more detail; how MGS instruction, network only for go online, ect... Good luck

I'm willing to open your project. I have RSView studio v4.00.00. If I can open it, I will backup project in a new *.apa file with a new name....maybe you didn't delete a application with the same name with the application manager. I think I had a similar problem... Just put your file in the forum if you want to make the test

A simple way to solve your problem is to import database from your offline project to your online project. To do it, follow this step: 1- Open your offline project and clic File --> save as... and check the box "save database as external file". (Picture). 2- Close your project and upload pgm in plc in a new file 3- Now save your project and go offline 4- Clic Tools --> Database --> Native import 5- Select what you want to import (all) [picture] 6- Select the *.CTD file in the same directory where you saved your upload. All symbol, comment, title ect... will be imported to your project, now you will be able to go online with a documented project. Wish I help you good luck

Thanks you for your help! This forum is powerfull. I'm really impressionate by the simple ligne of Alaric. It's simple, fast to program (and for scan time) ....genious!

Hi, I want to know if Compactlogix (L32E) plc have a instruction who can do this example: when I write 5 I want get 0000 0000 0001 1111 not 0000 0000 0000 0101 I write 3 I want get 0000 0000 0000 0111 not 0000 0000 0000 0011 I didn't found any instruction who do this.....Anybody have a idea? Thanks

Hi, I'm looking for word shifting instruction (like WSFT with Omron controller) in compactlogix controller. I only found BSL instruction (bit level). Thanks

Thanks, it's excatly what I need! This forum is very great, thanks again

I'm not sure FFL & FFU will be the solution. I explain my application: I shift a word (16 bit) who contain product spec on a conveyor . Operator select the position of the machine with panelview and machine make function in regard of bit (I use indirect adressing) ex WITH OMRON: DM are shifted, DM0000 is the pointer changed thru a touchscreen so in this example DM0000 = 1004 DM1000 DM1001 DM1002 DM1003 DM1004 <-- I use indirect adressing for load spec a this point. DM1005 [...] DM1050 The operator can change position few time a day. With Omron I shift one word thru DM1000 to DM1050, my min. and max position. I repeat this logic few time in my logic.....I don't want to use mov instruction... A powerfull plc like Compactlogix 1769-L32E don't have word shifting instruction???? strange thanks

Hi, I need to use data shift in my program. I want to use BSL instruction in a 1769-L32E plc. I'm not able to create a array tag. When I compile I alway have a error due to a array tag not created (picture). I did't found anything on "create a array tag" in help menu. In my sample, array_1 is; type : Base Data type: DINT Scope: MainProgram Style: Decimal Finally, I have another question: where is my first scan bit S:1/15 ???? I used these bit very often in my SLC pgm. Thanks

Thanks for your help. BOOL array doesn't work with BSL instruction, I must use a DINT array [1] for 32 bit shift register. I really appreciate S:FS bit....ist's hard to find on a first experience!

I check with my program (proficy version 5.50) and the driver is AB CLGX. Do you see this driver? If not, what is your version ? Do you use Quick panel or quick panel view touch screen? Maybe I'll be able to help you. Bye

I'm not sure but someone tell me only the last version of Poficy ME can support logix series.

Hi, I start a new projet and I need to use a encoder for tracking objet on a conveyor (ABZ). I'm looking for example, code or "do and don't" or any advice. It's my first time experience Thanks

I change a old PLC (texas TI505) for compactlogix on a bag machine (put magazine in bag). Encoder is already on the machine. I need to track space between magazine on a conveyor (3/4 inch to 1-1/4inch) and check if the bag is cutted. If knife is defective, more than 1 magazine are in the same bag, like a sausage. I need to put the magazine in a waste gate. I think is a good project for a first use of a encoder card. Speed is around 3 magazine per second Thanks

Hi, I write a small pgm for test STI interrupt. I mesure time (second, min, hour & day) with counter. Then, I synchronize plc counter and my laptop clock. After 15 days I have a difference of 1 minute between my laptop clock and plc. So, can I use STI for mesure time in a long interval ( like a lamp hour counter...close to 2 000 hour) or I must buy a RTC? I include my small program. Thanks STI_test.RSS

I know 1 min in 15 day is small. I want to explore the performance of plc. Maybe for a quality controls dept. 1 min in 15 day cant be acceptable! BobLfoot -> RTC is more accurate? For a long period, I'll lost 104 minute per years....more than 1 hours. If my controller run 10 machines, I'll lost more than one production shift (more than 17 hours). Now the error look bigger!

Hi ToddM, here is the cross ref and pinout for automation direct (GE , KOYO, and TI) directsoftcables.pdf

Hi, I want to install RsView Me. Installation require factory talk 2.0 installed. My problem is I want to install factory talk on a windows Xp Home (sp2) and I can't because program tell me I need Window PRO. Any solution ??? Thanks

Thanks! I follow the instruction but when I clic on install factorytalk from Cd, this box appear: Windows Xp home not supported. I don't want to buy Xp pro licence for a pc who only run rsview! Any solution??? Thanks

Hi again, I want to found unused adresse. I can't trust search function because if a instruction like BSET #0 DM1 DM5 is used and I search DM3, Not found message appear but DM3 is used! I'm familiar with RSLogic500 and I can't easly see used adresse in Data files (when I clic usage button). I have CX-ONE Thanks for your help

Hi, I want to open more than one ladder windows with RSLogic 5000. With RSLogic500 I have to right clic on the routine I want to open and select "new windows" but I don't have this option with RSLogic5000. I thinks is very useful to have multi windows monitoring for troubleshooting. Thanks for your help!
