  1. Omron NA5 Screen Saver - Custom Image

    Good afternoon, I'm trying to add a custom image to the screen saver on the NA5 HMI, has anyone had experience with this? I can get to the screen saver setting on the device but there's only "Blank" screen as default, but I'd like to add my own image instead. Can anyone help? Thanks!

  3. Twin HMI screen set up

    Hi, I am trying to set up a Twin HMI system on a machine. (screens on each side mirror each other during operation) I have a GE Versamax Micro Controller PLC and two 10” Quickpanel+ HMI screens. This is a newer version of one of our older systems that operated in the same way, the only physical difference is the serial cable arrangement as the old system used 8” Quickpanel HMIs with different connectors. HMI 1 is connected from COM1 via RS232 serial cable to Port1 on PLC. (Connects and interacts with PLC ok individually) HMI 2 is connected from COM2 via RS485 serial cable to Port2 on PLC. (Connects and interacts with PLC ok individually) There is a Cat 5 Ethernet cable between the HMIs. The software for the old system works with the new set up and the ViewNetwork consoles on the HMI screens appear behind the ViewRuntime and display the neighboring Target screen and their IP connection details. I have adapted our latest single screen machine software into a Twin screen version in the same way as the old software as far as I can see but with the newer software the ViewNetwork consoles are blank with No target connections. Each screen interacts with the machine ok but they do not mirror last data or page selected from the other screen etc. as the old version did. I have been through all the options I can find in the old software and set the new software the same but with the same blank ViewNetwork console. What settings do I need to adjust to enable each HMI to mirror the other and see each other through the ViewNetwork consoles. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance,

  7. Nematron DOS software

    We have an older Nematron system we are working on and requires some software. The system uses DOS 6.22 and launches Screen Ware 2 software and the Reliance DCS V1.01 to talk to the Rockwell AutoMax PLC that uses the Programming Executive Version 4.2. We have the Nematron parallel port keys (dongle) needed and are looking for installation media for editing. We also need information on the executables that open the screen files the ULTRA MAIN MENU is not available to us. We are interested in viewing the config for upgrade so even software that is newer and capable of converting and reading the program is fine. Any help is appreciated!!
  8. Hi, I would like to know how can I change screen using PLC program for the HMIST6400.
  9. I need to change the screen when a specific block receive a signal. For example when Q output changes voltage state from 0 to 1 I need to automatically go to another screen. I am very new to the software so detailed explain will be more helpful. Thank you.
  10. Dear Experts, We are facing one issue to get a ASCII serial pump data into FactoryTalk SCADA tags. Though, we get to communicate with Pump with VBA form and able to control the pump and get its flow status, can set the flow as well. Now our requirement is to fetch the pump flow and set the flow from FactoryTalk SCADA screen (using tags) How to get the data received in VB script into tag??? Any sample code for the same will be more helpful. Thanks in advance.
  11. Recipe Load Record using script

    Hi guys, I have been baffling with this for a while now, it there a way on GT Designer 3 to execute the "Load Record" FFCH using a script? I would like to load the recipes onto a PLC without having to press any keys on the GOT. Simply scan a value using an external scanner, the scanned value updates the control target record name. A simple script that has a trigger coming from the PLC would execute the "Load Record - FFCC" Thanks in advance.
  12. I have a Base tag of BOOL logic that will not activate the MOV output.  The Base tag is paralleled with an Alias tag for a NO pushbutton.  When the pushbutton is actuated it produces the desired output.  Has anyone encountered this issue from a togglebit base tag before?  Why would a base tag produce a different outcome from that of an alias tag that function properly?
  13. Hi, I'm looking for a way to change the button graphic (From "non-pressed button" to "pressed button" which is much lighter) via script.  The main problem is that, the button has to change it's graphic whenever i change a bit in my PLC program, more accurately, I press button in Factory IO, not in HMI, that thing I've already made, so I've set up my button "is pressed" graphic. I've got my tags prepared correctly, and I'm trying to reach the property of the button with this script:   Do  If SmartTags("Variable_1") Is True Then     HmiRuntime.Screens("Screen_1").ScreenItems("Template_Button_2")  End If Loop Is it even proper way to do stuff like that? I THINK it'll work like, if Variable_1 (Bool %Q0.0 for e.g. in PLC program) is 1 Then ->  And when I'm at ScreenItems, i don't know which property should I choose next in order to change button graphic.   Hope you can help :)
  14. Greetings I have an HMI in the form of an industrial PC, is ok to use an SC09 programming cable (8 pin DIN mini to USB type) as a permanent means of communicating between the FX3U PLC and industrial PC's USB port?   I am avoiding going through the trouble of buying a DB9 connector type for the PC end due to budget limitation. My CPU also doesn't have an ethernet card, i don't want to buy one either. i have already tested the connection and it works, i just want to understand the drawbacks of communicating via USB instead of ethernet or traditional serial.
  15. Hi guys, Is it possible to convert integers to/from strings in scripts in GT Designer3? I don't want to perform the conversion in the PLC. Thanks,
  16. Hello, From modbus, Im reading a HEX variable in the data register D0, as it is a 32 bit variable, the second part is saved in D1, then I get: D0: BE62 D1: 31D7 The value that I should obtain in float is -0.2208932 as I obtained setting  BE6231D7 in online Hex to float converter and this agree with what I'm reading on the flowmeter.  The problem is that when I try to change the data type from channel to Real on CX programmer I obtain a different value, also the registers are not sort in the proper way, instead they are sort inversely 31D7BE62, and obviusly the obtained value is completely different. Also instead of Hex, I want to display the decimal, or floating value, is there a way to do this? I'll attach some captures.    
  17. Control Panel

    Is it possible to view the values / states of all inputs, outputs and workbits (e.g. 64.00 through 64.15 on Omron CQM1 PLC) on a single screen or control panel within CX-Programmer software?  I'm trying to troubleshoot some ladder logic that I wrote and need to know the values of 5 or 6 inputs/outputs/workbits simultaneously.  Having to scroll up and down through my ladder logic repeatedly does not work well with code that changes state every 5-10 seconds or so. Any help is welcome.

  19. Helo All, Thanks for your support on my previous quiry. Iam now facing an issue with rotation animation of a motor in factory talk view. I have a screen containing 5 motors and good number of numerical displays. Numerical displays need to be updated just every seconds ,so i changed screen updation rate in SCADA as 1, changing so decreased my motor rotation speed. so do i have any other option to change motor animation fast keeping numerical display screen updation rate as 1 second?? i have used the tag  syste/blinkfast  
  20. Switch Superimposed Window

    Using GS2107, FX5U. I want to change the JPG image on a screen based on if the value in a text box is either 1 or 2, any other value will also have a single default image. Is there a way to do this via script? Or is there a different way?  
  21. Is there any way of viewing a remote Proface GP or LT screen inside a second GP or LT screen? I want to do this to avoid creating and loading duplicate screens. Essentially it would be like using GP Viewer-EX where the PC is replaced with another GP or LT unit.
  22. HMI GOT1030 Windows Screen

    Hi, I am currently working on window screen. I don't know how to disable function of closing the window (see attached red screen). The window screen is showing by pressing button on input. My settings are shown on the screens below.  
  23. Trying my luck to ask here, if anyone can help :D So I've started using CX-Supervisor v3.41 and found a very odd problem with the color palette, as shown in the picture below. As you can see, the palette size is abnormal that the Color Selector button is not visible anymore. This window is also not sizeable, so I cannot do anything to fix it. I never encountered such problem with v3.24 before. I confirmed this is not a screen resolution problem either since I've tried to change it. Anyone encountered same issue perhaps? Maybe someone know a workaround? Thank you

  25. We have an install base of about 120 TWIDO PLCs anywhere from 1 to 10 years old with varying configurations, but all using the TWDLCAE40DRF base unit.  Lately (over the past couple of years), we've had multiple instances where upon power being removed from the device, and then turned back on, the base unit fails and will not power back up.  The typical case is that we turn on the power, a couple of LEDs flash for a brief (< 1 Sec) moment, and then nothing - unit is dead. Just wondering if anyone else has encountered the same thing.
