  1. Hi there! I'm dealing with some ActiveX object issues in a CX-Supervisor SCADA project. The thing is that the computer where the runtime was running failed and was replaced. The project used a couple of dropdown list objects that worked in the older PC, but now everytime it access or calls the ActiveX object in some way, an error saying the object couldn't be found appears in the error register and the runtime stops working. I've been reading about Activex and Cx-Supervisor and I tried installing NI Measurement Studio, as it appears to be the software related to the objects in the project, but this didn't fix it. I see in the 'Csutomize Toolbox' window near activex objects, that there are plenty of options to choose, but I got no information about this window online. So my question here is: is there any 'standard' ActiveX object type that works on any PC, or am I missing something?   Thanks in advance!    
  2. Hi All,Cx-Supervisor, NJ501-1340, Sysmac Gateway.I have been writing an update for a project and converting to this new controller.It's a pretty big project.Using a combination of Ladder and ST.Using Cx-Supervisor 3.5.I created some new Variables in Studio and made them Publish only.Started to create Points in Supervisor and made them I/O connected to the variables in Studio. No problems everything was connecting and working just fine.Then one of the points would not update. I could change it in the PLC and it would not change On the HMI.I deleted it and recreated it and it did the same thing. (sometimes points in Supervisor just stop working and recreating them fixes it).I then copied the control and pasted the old point into it and it did the same. Then other started to fail. Showing no reaction.I stopped the gateway and restarted, no help, I rebuilt the HMI, nope.The can check the tags in Sysmac gateway and they always change when the PLC changes but not the HMI.I checked the point maintenance in Supervisor and it would not change.I dumped all the affected variable in the PLC and in the HMI and recreated them. Then it got stranger.I could change some on the HMI and it would show in the PLC but not the other way.This is on Bools and UINTS.Stopped CX-server, tried using it with Win8 compatibility. nope.Pulling my hair out now. I should be coding but I'm trying to get the apps to work.Any ideas will be used with thanks.Peter
  3. CX-Supervisor Version 3.50(7) on Windows 7. I've just had a vendor add a function to a HMI. It's a single button to save the recipe and it's near the bottom centre of the screen. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it works if I slide my finger around on it. Usually it doesn't work. It always works if I use a VNC viewer and press the button remotely. The PC has two touch monitors (on VGA splitter). Both monitors have the same problem. If I run PBrush (Paint) I can draw all over that area of the screen without missing a pixel. Has anyone ever seen anything like this before? And, more importantly, how did you fix it? Thanks.
  4. Hi, according to the manual one should reduce points by using the bitwise operator on an integer instead of making a point for each bit. I have tried making a test page with several squares and made a colour change action using Testword & 0x30, but the result seems quite random. 0x03 don'seem to work either.  I also tried making a script to load the bits from the PLC into a bool array and this action expresion: TestBool[3]  and even using "Rectangle_3.colour = red" in the script. This last attempt worked OK for the first two bits, but no response for the rest. Now i'm running out of ideas :( Is this a bug or a limitation of the educational version? Anyone have a solution or a workaround? Geir  
  5. I have a legacy application with [PRINT] buttons on many of the screens. The screens are very simple with text and boxes as frames around the text. The [Print] button calls the CX-Supervisor script: where FALSE suppresses the print dialog. Figure 1. One of eight of the temperature control boxes. I have upgraded to CX-Supervisor 3.41 Developer and Runtime for a couple of modifications. Now when we print the text comes out OK but the graphics (the boxes) are about eight times the correct size and overlay the text. This happens when printing to the printer and to XPS. Figure 2. The eight temperature texts and the giant boxes on an A4 XPS file. (It's the same when printed directly to printer.) Has anyone seen anything similar? Is there a fix? Many thanks.
  6. CP1H Communication HElp

    Hi - I had an old lab PC running software made in CX-Supervisor to control equipment attached to a CP1H (I did not make the software).  The CP1H connects to the PC with a RS232.  The PC running the software died, but I have the files copied onto a new PC.  I have installed the latest CX-Supervisor software, when I open my program file from the old PC I have a communication error (attached).  Where do I setup the new PC to communicate with the CP1H? Thank you
  7. CX-Supervisor Developer 3.41 on development laptop. CX-Supervisor Runtime Only V3.4.1.0 on machine HMI. SYSMAC Gateway V1.7 on machine HMI. Following on from http://forums.mrplc.com/index.php?/topic/35136-cx-supervisor-developer-no-plc-point-data-when-testing-runtime/: Developer V3.4 generates .SR3 files rather than the older .SR2 files. After my Runtime upgrade neither the old SR2 program or the new SR3 program seem to communicate via the SYSMAC Gateway which is running (and passes the comms test) on the HMI. It works on the development laptop. Has anyone got any suggestions?
  8. I've added users in CX-Supervisor Developer, built and copied the SR3 file over but the new users don't travel with it. (I didn't think they should be embedded in the project file.) How do I transfer the user accounts from Developer to Runtime?
  9. I'm an experienced PLC / HMI developer but not very familiar with CX-Supervisor. I'm modifying a program with CX-Supervisor Version 3.41 and all is well until I try to test it. The runtime builds and starts but the PLC point data is all zeros. I'm developing on my laptop, plugged into the machine network where the HMI is running the previous program version. Can my modified program talk to the NX701 PLC while the HMI is talking too? Is there some trick to starting the Developer Runtime that I'm missing? Many thanks.
  10. 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
  11. I'm modifying an existing application and need to expand some recipe arrays. Runtime is throwing an error on the last element of the original array (elements 0 to 137 and I have expanded to 199). Is there any way to add a breakpoint into the code to see what's happening? How does anyone else do it? Many thanks.
  12. Dear All               Could you people help me to solve this issue. I need a Function in cx-supervisor with Push Button.I want Bit ON, when I pressed the button, and when I release the button then this bit goes OFF. Sorry for my bad English its not my native language.
  13. Hello, Thank you for giving me the opportunity to join your awesome community. I am pretty much a beginner in using more than one PLC so please bare with me. This is my problem so far, I have four C1JM PLCS with no Ethernet port built into them BUT I also have four serial to Ethernet converters (MOXA NPORT 5110) and a switch. I want to make a small control room so that I can control all of the PLCS from a single PC using CX-Supervisor. My problem is that i don't know how to make a network between the four PLCS and the PC and how to configure them on CX-Programmer and CX-Supervisor so that i can control all the four PLCS from one PC.  Your help will be much appreciated. Thank you in advance and have a nice day :)
  14. The production environment has had a CX Supervisor package running since 2006. the internal computer finally bit the dust... We have managed to install XP on another PC. Supposedly it was all installed correctly off site and tested to run OK offsite. When connected to the (PLC) machine CX-Supervisor [v1.33] gives an error 1007. Probably its an communication error. It seems that the back-up runtime version (sr2) was CX Supervisor v.2.1 from which we don't have a hash dongle. We only have a v1.3 version.   According to the omron helpdesk, the only thing we can do to test the connections , is to install a v2.x trial version with the .sr2 file. There is no need for a usb-dongle in a trial version and it wil only work for 30 days. That would be sufficient for us, because the repair of the build-in system will take about two weeks. For now a complete production-line is out! In short: We urgently are in need of CX-Supervisor v2.x trial installation package. If anyone knows where to find it, it will be appreciated. 
  15. Is it possible to use an older version (rs2) from CX-Supervisor v1.33 with a new install of CX-Supervisor 3.x? regards, Richard

  18. CX Supervisor Modbus RTU

    Can CX Supervisor be used as modbus RTU master using RS232/RS485 or USB/RS485 converter to connect it to PLC or panelmeter or other modbus slave units and how? Any example? Thanks in advance Goran
  19. Happily logging lots of parameters, at 1 second rate, and generating a csv file every hour, using Supervisor 3.2 and the ExportLog Supervisor script.  Had to make a dos batch file to collate all the hourly csv files in to a daily csv file, and zip it, and then delete the hourly dlv and csv files, as normally the daily zipped log files are just kept for reactive faultfinding when there is a need to investigate a daily log file using Excel. Problem I find is that the data logging list of parameters is not able to be set to a particular order, such that the csv columns are in a particular order.  Supervisor seems to rejig the order of parameters in the Logging workspace to its own purposes, and that order doesn't align with the order of parameters in the csv file.  Nothing that I could find in the manual or help or poking around seems to describe how the export ordering is done. Anyone been down that path?? Regards, Tim
  20. Hi, Is there any setup to manage alarms in one PLC from multiple CX-Supervisor runtimes running on different computers? If I get an alarm, it shows up on both runtimes. If I acknowledge from one runtime, I also want it to be gone from the list in the other runtimes.
  21. cx supervisor runtime failed

    my CX supervisor runtime has failed. when i build a runtime, SR2 built succesfully, but when open the SR2 file theres nothing pop up on my runtime. Event/ error log tell that failed to open device, non-specific error occurred: PLC, [CX-Server: MANAGER, ERROR, 0x8825]. How to solve this problem..please help me
  22. Does any one has idea why CX supervisor 1.33 runtime application crashes when NVP file comes to 200kB or something. This file is used to keep non volatile tags. But from time to time it crashes. About every 6 months. But when I delete NVP file it works fine. I have some text tags which is used to store some text that user input and change from time to time. Goran
  23. Hi, to all. I have a question concerning the current alarms of CX-Supervisor, I'm using the version 3.22. I want to do a custom alarm view where the alarm messages have a different colors depending on the priority (ex. red for high priority, yellow for medium priority, etc...). I want also that the alarms are ordered by date & time, first the latest. The alarm object is not good because doesn’t allow to order by date & time and you can decide only one colour for all the alarms.The current alarm dialog box allows to order the alarms but non to customize the colors. I did some test and I've seen that I can fill a list with different line colors by using the ActiveX object Microsoft ListView Control 6.0, but I need the current alarm list to do it. I don't know where to get this list. The alarms history is stored in the .UAL and .UAB files but I didn't find any file with the current alarms. Does anyone know how to get the current alarms list? Does anyone know another way to have the same effect? Thanks in advance
  24. Hello everyone! First of all, I'm a new comer to this forum from Indonesia. The name's Inno. Looking forward to share knowledge with all of you So I had this trivial, but annoying matter with CX-Supervisor Text Points. I had connected it to NJ101 controller. There I made a sample STRING, let's say "1234". I set this STRING to be stored in D0 memory, which means in ASCII it'll now contains : D0 = #3132 D1 = #3334 Then I use the Display Value (Text) Action to a Text Object in CX-Supervisor. The problem is, each Word on the Point display the LSByte first. So the resulting view in CX-Supervisor is : "2143", while I expect to see "1234" I know this can be easily solved by swapping the bytes inside the NJ program, but I'm curious, does CX-Supervisor has the feature to swap these bytes automatically? I mean, even NS or NB HMI can do so to accomodate Mitsubishi/others String system :D This occured for any Text type I choose (Signed/Unsigned/Raw Binary). Waiting for your suggestions
  25. CX-Supervisor can't runtime

    hello guys, i got a little bit problem with my cx-supervisor 3.2. when i clicked the cx-supervisor development project, the message showed that cx-server detected a problem during initialitation. But it could enter the program with the new message again that access to the cx-server project has been denied and finally it surely could not runtime. After that i tried to fix it with uninstall and re-install but the result was the same. Please i need help to solve this problem. i have fixed it as much as i can it didnt work. Thank You Best regard
