This is the best way to do that kind of job but Compactlogix doesn't support input interupt, event task couldn't be trigged by input. This is available only in contrologix plateform.

I had few problem to upload with zelio controller in the past. The version of Zeliosoft used to program the controller must be the same used for upload for be able to upload project.

SFC20 may help you. Check chapter 3 in attachement SFC_e.pdf

One thing to add: while you do online edit, you cannot expands data aera, for example if the B3 file is from B3:0 to B3:10 you will not be able to use bit B3:11/0. You must expands adress aera by download only. Tip: when you do a program, use a bit like B3:100/0 and delete it. RS500 left available memory up to B3:100 you you'll be able tu use more bit in online edit. You can do same thing for N, F, timer, counter, ect...

I think you use the wrong driver in RSLink. If you are connected to DB9 of AIC+, you may try DF1 see screen shot.

Stock in canada....buy one this week and receive it next day.

Create normal push button, select graphic and browse for bmp or jpg file. See picture for detail. I also send you the project I created for example. HMI.zip

It is for HMI or pc? multi panel, tp, basic panel? need more detail for help you...

I agree good plc. I use ethernet port for programming, HMI, VPN but I don't know I can use it for do remote IO! I asking rockwell for M1100 and remote IO is not possible for this plc. Are you sure M1400 can do it?

Here's the supported software by rockwell: http://rockwellautomation.custhelp.com/ci/...3891/1264520789

Here the manual, may help! 1746_HSCE2_user_manual.pdf

Two file to send for D410. I'll send in 2 post because exeed upload limit. D410_Commissioning_en_US.pdf

Hi all, I have to do eberle plc conversion to AB M-1400 plc. I've got ladder (print copy) with kind of statement list above contact. LB003 for start rung with adress b3, ANB100 for nc contact, OB004, for branch, ect... I've got a contact with ATB001, I think is not a timer because few instruction contain AT001, ONT003, ect so T means timer, B bit what TB means? I also got PB121 contact. What PB means? one shot? system bit? thanks for your help

Here the program screen shot for people who are not able to open it.

I attach pdf of S5 programming manual. STL is on page 117 (Part2 -6). Step_5_v_7.2_manual.pdf

This is a know issue about software version... like Bob say http://rockwellautomation.custhelp.com/app...%20is%20low.%22

You may consider a vpn router. You'll be able to go online with plc, hmi, ect.... If you add plc in the future, you'll be able to use the same connection. plus it's really more safe. I send a linksys Wireless G with VPN link as example (WRV210): http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps9929/index.html

Create byte and only used 2 lowest bit as color bit. Then use binary of the byte for change color. You may assign value to the color: 00 = 0 01 = 1 10 = 2 11 = 3

Don't be affraid by macro...it's simple. You'll need 2 macro, one for open one for close. Right clic on macro and select new. Then select tag you want to set and write 1 for set the tag (open screen in your application) or 0 for reset it (close screen in your application). In the display you want to do macro, right clic on used space and select display setting... select Behavior tab and select your startup and shutdown macro (display open and close) My opinion: the easier way to know in witch display HMI is, is to assign tag to display number in Global connection, Display tab. note if you use this method assign unique display number for each screen in display setting...

Someone ask me a question thru email. I send it in the forum to share knowledge with other and maybe help other member. (I didn't send the attach program) SLCMAN.. Good Morning... I have a SLC question for you, if you dont mind. ( I will try my best to explain ) I have a SLC 5/02 connected to a DTAM via the 485 port. The original program was written on APS and I only have RSLogix 500 for the SLC/Micro products. The 5/02 processor has some intermitten problems. I do tho have an old APS transfer utility program that allows me to get the program out as an .ACH file and then I use RSLogix 500 to convert to a .RSS My problem is that after I converted it and reloaded it into a new SLC 5/03 everything works ACCEPT for the messages being sent to the DTAM. Any ideas would be appreciated. I attached both files if you need them. You will need to rename the extension on the 5070.RSS as a 5070.ACH it would not let me upload the .ach file. Thanks, //************************************************************ I look the convertion and found why it's not working. 5/02 use channel 0 in msg instruction and the DH-485 with RJ45 in 5/03 is channel 1 so you'll need to change in each MSG instruction the channel # (change it for channel 1, see picture). For see this window, just clic on setup in the MSG instruction.

Check msg instruction, you'll need to resize N10 file or start a new integer datatable for Control block of MSG instruction. Why? in 5/03 control block 14 Elements instead of original plc who need only 7 element in datatable. In the msg setup screen, you start to write from N10:10. In the original plc N10:0 to N10:6 is used for control block, now N10:0 to N10:13 is used but you also use N10:10 to N10:17 for write....here the overlap, here is trouble. I open both project for send you a screen shot.

You have to use Other -> generic module. clic on link to have detail: http://rockwellautomation.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/40925/related/1 ://http://rockwellautomation.custhelp....925/related/1 Answer ID 40925

You'll found the description of floating point REAL number: http://www.dspguide.com/ch4/3.htm and on attached file. For the MUL R instruction here a cut and paste from the help file: Description A signal state of 1 at the Enable input (EN) activates the Multiply Real instruction. This instruction multiplies input IN1 by IN2. The result can be scanned at output OUT. If either of the inputs or the result is not a floating-point number, the OV bit and the OS bit are set to 1 and ENO is set to 0. So ENO is 0, all variable are REAL? have the code will be helpful to help you on this. Sure thing: ENO is not set so got a error on this instruction. indirect adressing: indirect_variable_names[pointer] for example: DB2_symbol_names.indirect_variable_names[MD10] Real.pdf

I delete your program file (*.ach and *.rss). Resend it to the forum I'll look on it.

First you must add RSLink driver, you need Virtual bbackplane softlogix driver (see picture). Then,open RSEmulate and right clic on empty slot ->create. add plc and digital IO. You cannot use space 0 for plc like in compactlogix. Simulator only have digital IO for simulate analog, you can add another plc and write to analog tag via comm. Right clic on digital module and select IO data for simulate input or see output. (picture) For add digital IO in your project you have to insert 1756-MODULE generic, this module is used for simulate input and output. Strange but true! In Emulate IO is 1789-SIM and in RS5000 IO is named 1756-MODULE. I send screen shot on how to configure 1756-MODULE, same config for input and output. Finally, for use input, you have to use array[1]. Don't forget to raise the RPI on 1756-MODULE, if you didn't raise it, you'll got IO fault. On my laptop, I have open Emulate before open RS5000, sometime if RS500 is open before Emulate, Emulate doesn't work. good luck
