  6. All, I am using Keyence CV-X422A vision controller for my application. It is interfaced with Siemens S7-1500 PLC on PROFINET. I am able to communicate with Vision controller through PLC logic command and status IOs. There is some communication issue in updating the o/p values from Camera Controller. I have tried with & w/o Handshake Mode with these settings. The camera display shows the reject but camera never turns ON the NG Status o/p. I tried different things told by Keyence Tech support but none of them worked.  He told me to have you enable the “Result ACK Flag” in the bit allocation area and send  a signal to it. Then trigger it again with a no good part and see if that fixes the issue. I tried setting the “Result ACK Flag” to 1 after I get the “Command Complete Flag” for the trigger signal that I sent. Sometimes this works but still it is not reliable. Do I need to send only a pulse to “Result ACK Flag”? Anyone here has ever faced similar issue?  Thanks for your help. AP

  9. NB7W System Error

    I’m programming a OMRON NB7W-TW01B with NBDesigner and after I download to the HMI updates I made to the program, when the HMI initializes it shows “[0] System Error” for a while and then it disappears, not showing again until the next reboot.   The manual only says it is an HMI internal error and nothing more, leaving me clueless about what I can do to fix this issue… I already have updated the kernel and rootfs of the HMI, nothing changed.   What do you guys think the issue is, what should I check to try to fix this problem?   Thank you very much for the help.
  10. Hello, I am currently working on programming my first sortation system.  Attached is a blue print of the in feed conveyors and their loadout lines.  As boxes merge together they will be scanned by the barcode scanner.  From there we will be told which lane each box must go down, from the WCS.   My question is, without encoders, what would be the best way to control this system? Counting the packages as they pass through the photoeye? Or setting timers?   Thanks, James Sorting Conveyor Layout.pdf
  11. Tia Portal V14 Real time graph

    I current have 2 variable: Displacement vs Pressure. I need to draw a real time graph on Comfort Panel. The problem with using just f(x) trend is that the minimum time between updating a point is 0.5 sec and that is for ever in my application as the whole cycle last only 5 sec and I have to plot 500 points in that time. Is there a way to do real time graph using Historical data without any time delay. If anybody can guide me through any sample program or material would e helpful. Thanks
  12. Hi   I'm all new to using omron but "stuck" with a project. I find the CX Programmer software (version 9.35) a bit confusing. Used Siemens a lot.  What I'm trying to do is to display date and time on a HMI showing cpu startup time. I use a "First cycle flag" that triggers once when CPU starts and then I understand that the date and timestamp is in the system variables A352 and A353. But how do I format them as a normal text? I only manage to display them as #hex-numbers. I have tried googeling but have not found an answer to my questions. edit: CPU type is: CJ1M CPU12 //Morten
  13. Hi All, On our plant, we are using one Rockwell  PLC model 5573 with HMI(Allen Bradley 1500P). I am automation engineer but I did not work on the Rockwell PLC. Now I am planning to install the GPS clock on our plant. And I want clock will synchronize our Rockwell plc as well. Could someone advice what is the best option for this model to do the time synchronization.   Thanks in Advance, Warm Regards/Waqar
  14. Hi.  I am quite new to Sysmac Studio. Working on my first project with it now, coming from CX-series.  I have got one problem i can not find a solution to. On the NA-HMI I want to have an input display where i can input a time of the day.  As far as I can see NA do not allow me to use "TIME_OF_DAY" variables in the Data Edit component. Is there a solution to this? 
  15. Cycle Timer

    Hi all, I try to realize a cycle timer. A counter is triggered by a movement ( clamp close ) Then the machine does it things, piston here, and there and when the clamp closes again it should show me the real cycle time. Is there a timer/counter that is independent from the PLC cycle? I am using a CJ1M CPU11 Ver. 3.0
  16. I would like to use the actual Cycle Time (in seconds) of the NJ101 CPU in a Structured Text  math equation.  You might also call it the Task Period... However it's called, It needs to be the amount of time that has elapsed from the last calculation of the ST math equation.  It must be a variable that also satisfies this looping equation: Time:= Time +cycle time .. so that the master equation, which is calculating position information, based on TIME .. is up to date with each calculation in the loop. How do I insert that cycle-time, which might not be identical for each loop, (or, is it) ?  Thanks, Regards, Michael  
  17. In my application the LMC automation controller will be calculating date-based lot codes. I would like to synchronise the internal clock with a time server such as pool.ntp.org. I can't find any info in the Schneider-Electric SoMachine help files or on the web. Does anyone know if this is possible?
  18. Choosing the right OMRON PLC - Vacuum System

    Hi All, I'm hoping someone can help me. We're currently in the very early stages of re-designing how our vacuum system works. Currently we have 6 vacuum pumps supplying around 8 different packaging machines which we currently have to turn on and off manually depending on the demand on the machines. The challenge is to design and implement a part or fully automated system to control the current vacuum pumps - The key requirements are Supply must equal demand for the vacuum pumps - so they are only used when neededAutomatic switch-off when not in useCycling the use of the vacuum pumps so as not to overuse oneAbility to take a pump out of the loop for service/breakdownsManual override/shut-offScope for expansionUser-friendly interface (possibly touch-screen/wireless)I am a complete novice when it comes to OMRON PLC work and would like some guidance on possibly similar projects or at least pointing in the right direction with which PLC to go for. Thanks for your time Jack
  19. Hi,  i want to read real time and date in simulation mode. How can i do this in Unity pro? Thanks for helping
  20. Time Based Interrupt

    Hello guys!!! My system constist of: CPU: Q03UDE Some I/O modules Some Intelligent Modules (Q68ADI,QJ71PB92V...) A High Speed Digital Input card QX80H (setting responce time 0.1msec) 1 digital input from QX80H occupied to count the pulse that a flow meter sends. The pulse corresponds to the totalizer of the Flow meter (FCI ST100 series Thermal Mass) and it has fixed width 0.5msec. The flow meter sends 4 pulses / minutes approximately according to current flow rate. My Main Program has scan time 2.4msec. I think that PLC ignores some pulses because of the pulse width is lower than scan time of my program. Is it right? So, the PlC program calculates wrong total flow.... What can I do to avoid this issue? Attached you can find a sketch what I mean... I though to program a time based interrupt every 0.3msec. Is it right and possible in Q03UDE CPU.....? If yes, how can to do it? Thanks a lot in advance for your any help!!!
  21. Hi everyone, I would like to create a PLC code using RSlogix 5000 program in order to measure time delays on the network. Can anyone help me to do this? Thanks.
  22. Hi! I just started with PLC programming. I am trying to get the time between a output signal and a input signal. The problem is that the time is ~200 ms but when i measure it with this code:   TONR(Timer1); IF PosFeedback <= PosFeedback_Min & not Timer1.Reset THEN Timer1.TimerEnable := 0; FullCloseDeltaTime[1] := Timer1.ACC; Timer1.Reset := 1; END_IF; IF (move & not Move_LastScan) THEN //Start timer Timer1.TimerEnable := 1; Timer1.Reset := 0; END_IF; Move_LastScan := move; i only get even values in intervalls of 50 ms like 150, 200 and 250 ms. I have changed the real time sample rate to 11 ms so i don't understand why i don't get a more exact result. And i can see in my trend that the time isn't exactly 150, 200 or 250 each time. I i tried and time my own click on a button and i see the problem is the timer, i only get values in an interval of 50 ms. Is there a way to make the timer more exact?
  23. Hi all,  Can someone please help me, I am using a Micro830 Controller running connected components workbench software to program the controller. I want the use the Real Time Clock of the controller to control an output to turn on everyday at 01:30am and turn of when it receives a signal from an input. The output will control a backwash valve that will operate and activate a cam switch internally that sends a signal back to the Controller to say the valve has operated and can now stop sending the signal to the valve. (if that makes sense). I have tried playing around with the RTC instructions but I cannot seem to get it to operate how I want it to. Any help would be much appreciated. EnvrioService
  24. PCS7 with S7-410 for Dummies

    I just need to understand a little bit more about the PCS7 architecture, if someone could point me to a document or a video or something, or just give me a few sentences to break it down it would be greatly appreciated. The reason being, we have a quote that we are working on for a customer over seas and are being told to quote our equipment with an S7-410 PLC.  I am very unfamiliar with Siemens in general, but completely unfamiliar with the PCS7. Our equipment is typically if not almost always stand alone equipment that communicates discretely to the rest of the facility.  Our equipment is not part of a process line, but rather feeds the process line equipment what it needs to perform its operation. I have been led to believe that the S7-410 PLC must be part of a DCS, so it does not seem like the correct fit for our equipment.  I just want to confirm this and learn a little bit more so I can explain to our sales folks and ultimately the end user why it is the wrong option for us and our type of equipment.   Thank you!!!
