Hi, I need your help. I've been tasked to backup a program from a running PLC 90-30. Is it possible to do so without having the original project? (like you do with Siemens PLC?) We bought the cable IC690ACC901 and want to backup the running program to our PC, in order to have a copy of it, but I couldn't find an option in Profivy Machine Edition to do so. Should I make a new empty project? Thank You for your patience.

How to work with special registers in a LCPU L0 structured project on GX Works2
Igor Lasmar posted a topic in Mitsubishi
Hello there, This is my first time here on this forum and also my first time working with this software and PLC. I am working off-line (since my PLC did not arrive yet) on GX Works 2, in a structured project type, with LCPU series and L02 type. the problem is that when trying to use any of the special registers (m8000, r23500, etc...) on my code after compile the error F1028 pops-up, on the other hand the same code with special register will work just fine in a simple project type without labels and I dont know how to make it work on my structured project with labels. -
Hello evreryone! I want to build a Gx Work program. The condition for auto start is when a low limit sensor is detected. When the high limit sensor is detected, supply to the tank is stopped. The order in which the tanks are opened is 4,3,2,1. Tank closing order is reversed. Valve 5 must be closed when liquid is being supplied to the tank. The completion of supply to the tank is confirmed by the high limit sensor. I use MOV transfer e.x D0 K1 Y01 MOV K2 D0 Y2 Y3 I want to open coli Y1 Y2 Y3 every valve how to open toether. Thank you

I'm new to this forum, and hope for help. We have a woodworking edgebanding machine (Cehisa, made in Spain) that stopped resetting (starting), a tech diagnosed a bad PLC because all its led's were flashing. Cehisa owns the software, so they are only source to upload the project. They quoted us $7500.00 + $100 shipping for a replacement (!!!). Problem is, even if we paid this , the replacement could also fail if it's an internal or external component problem. Siemens tech suggested a power supply issue possibly. ( I put PLC in Stop, disconnected all outputs and lights stopped flashing. Can anyone suggest steps to meter test & "possibly" save the one we have? Spain, our US distributor, and our tech stopped communicating (they all say buying the new one is the answer). I have some electronics background, have and understand our machine's schematics but not versed on PLC's. Sorry for long-winded text.

Hi Gents, Is it just me or it's generally that difficult to get the specifications in the industry? I kind of smile at some emails nowadays but here are some fundamental specification issues which felt like I had to go through on many projects through clients client: - New analogue/digital instruments installed with rated voltage of 110V AC while control is fully running at 24V DC - Request to Install TIA portal V15 on Windows XP (as they had all their legacy code on) so the client could have every software on 1 PC (no VMs) - Transfer signals from new PLC to the older PLC - no specifications on literally anything related to the requirements - Travel 500 miles extra as customer wants an extra signals in the PLC (cuz he forgot to mention them on site) Do you ever come across situations like this or am I simply over dramatic?

Hi All! Can anyone help me regarding the following logic: 1. I have four Silos and one filling station. 2. The filling of silos starts on the bases of silo demad (i.e demand is a digital signal that comes when silo is empty) 3. I have to fill all silos according to their demand 4. Whose demand is first that is filled first 5. for e.g if all four silos are empty they all generate a demand signal. 6. If Filling of silo 1 is done and filling is in progress at silo 2 after that filling will start in silo 3 then silo 4 as they are empty 7. In the mean time if silo 1 empy again and filling is in progress at silo 2. The system must fill silo 3 and 4 first then go to silo 1 8. It means which demands first that is filled first (first come first serve)

Hi everyone! I have a question to all of you guys - do you ever use any software or online tools to manage your automation/electrical engineering projects? I have worked in a number of companies and have seen various scenarios, from using excel tables to run multi-million dollar projects to using proprietary SW for every little tiny project. Unfortunately I do not have experience working for any major big integrator and am very curious how projects are managed at this level (and if every engineer likes the way it is handled). Additional question - does anyone have ever used a software to automatically generate the PLC code? I know some companies develop products to generate the "skeleton" of PLC program and I think it is a great thing to have.

Sysmac Studio cannot be used with the current license
mandrusha posted a topic in NJ Series / Sysmac Studio
Hello everyone, I have this message when I trying to open my project which I did. "The project includes a model that cannot be used with the current license. The project is closed." I recently reinstalled windows, but version of Sysmac Studio is same, License is same, but now I not be able to open my project. I just tried to install last version of Sysmac Studio 1.25, and of course nothing changed, looks like issue with license. But again, license is same. -
Good day everyone. Somebody can help me to to resolve the issues in our PLC. I am not a PLC engineer, your help will be highly appreciated. It is showing - Failed to open the Project file. Possible causes: 1.The data in the project file is completely damaged; 2.The data is created by new version more than this S/W; 3.The project file does not exist. Hopefully, somebody can help me or give instruction on how to check those possible causes. Thank you.

Hi Guys! I have a problem with array filling. I use rslogix 5000 software. I have to save the timestamp sometimes. I can save it with GET instruciton. Its a dint array which have 7 elements (year, month, day....and so on), But my problem is I dont know, how can I solve that, they are in a bigger array. So like an array within the array. Idk it is possible ? I hope you know how I mean. So I have 7 dint value in one array, and I want 1000 array for this. How can increase the position of the array number ? Can anybody help me with that ? Thank you in advance.

hello everyone,, I use the QD03UDV PLC and the modbus QJ71MT91 module, I want to test the module using modbus poll but it fails continuously, and when I upload the program to the LED notification PLC "COM.ERR." the module is ON ... but in GX Works2 I have no errors .. why is it like that, can someone help me?

hallo all, I want to ask if I click "read PLC Data" the "points" will appear, I use the QY18A output module that uses 8 points but there is no choice, the smallest is only 16 points. so I can't put 148 in the "start XY" column ... will it affect the I / O address in the program?

Hello everyone! I am new to Eplan, and I am working on a big project on which someone else has worked on before me and almost finished it, but with a lot of technical mistakes and missing peaces. My boss expects me to fix a lot of things, but I have no experience with this software, so I could use some help. The problem is that no revision information (revision date, description, approved by etc) is displayed in this project, and I don't know how to make it appear, and be correct. I have made changes in plot frame and added special texts which should display these data, but I don't know where should I define wanted information (for example, I put special text for "approved by" but I can't seem to find adequate place to write the name of that person)? And, is there a way for Eplan to generate automatically revision description, based on the changes I made? From all said, it is obvious that I have no idea at all how revisions work, so any help would be enormously appreciated Thank you in advance! Cheers

Hi there! I have a question with AB PLC. My problem: I have some raw data...distance for example.When the machine starts,the sensor begins to send the information with the distance values. When data is received it is moved into an array. After the first 5 values the program calculates an average and the result is moved into another array.Currently after receiving the fifth value,thus filling the first array,making the calculation and sending the average to the other array,the program empties the entire first array instead of just always discarding the oldest value of the five,and recalculating the average with the newly arrived value every time. I tried to made this with ladder diagram using an an fifo load and unload but isnt working. Please help me if anybody can. Thank You.

I have a waste water system and Corporate wants to know the "average" pH. Most people think its just a function of averaging the discharges. We run on a detention tank system. I think they understand finally how pH works. Unfortunately my discharge volumes differ every time, and so do my pH's. If I calculate my daily discharges pH and volumes in Excel or on my Ti-89, we are golden. The PLC, L63 rev 19.1. seems to be giving me fits. It is obviously my fault, since I am doing the programming. Has anyone attempted to do the same thing? If so how essentially did you do it? I am eventually going to make into an AOI after all this effort. In a nut shell, I take the current volume and pH. I derive Mol . The previous discharge volume and pH and stored Mol are used to calculate a new equivalent dilution. This becomes a running average, which I have a FIFO 10 long. All new volumes, pH, and calculated Mol are stored historically 10 Long. ( 10 discharges ). If I simulate with same volume and same pH incoming and last outgoing, pH is slightly lower. (11.7 versus 12). The math appears to be correct, it works in excel

Hallo Community, i have the Problem that my complete project is made with grandient objects and my PV cant display that. When i was making a runtime application i got some warnings. "<MomentaryPushButton2> on display <Allgemein - PackML_State_Time> is using a Gradient Fill. When running the MER on a PanelView Plus 6 terminal, the system cannot process certain gradient fills. When running the MER on a computer, the system can process all gradient fills, this warning does not apply. Please refer to the online help for more detail on this warning." I got this message for every button on every side. The problem is that i dont use PV6 and because of that i thought its ok to ignore the warnings but on PV7 i have also no grandient and my objects are all blank now. Did i make something wrong? Thanks in advance! Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Best regards Adrian Düringer

Dear All, I am very new to S7 PLC programming (S7 Simatic Manager v5.5) and I wanted to know how to back-up a system consisting of multiple PLC Stations (S7-1200, S7-300, etc). I am able to upload station to PG but that will save only per station. How about saving the whole system? I am not sure if i am using the right terminology. As you can see, I was given a zip file for the S7 project and it contains the whole system. I am trying to see how the commissioning engineer was able to do it (don't ask why I am not asking him instead). How can I then use this project file to download the program to the PLC/system once I decide to restore. I am at loss and have been searching for references over the internet. Uploading and downloading per station is no problem. I cannot seem to know how to do it on multiple stations system. I hope I have made some clear question or somehow you have managed to understand it. TIA.

Adding an Exisiting Programme to Logix5000 Emulate
METSYSTEM posted a topic in Allen Bradley / Rockwell Automation
Hi all, I have been trying to emulate an exisiting logix5000 project but am struggling somewhat. All the online help I have found so far is just showing me how to set up emulator with a new project. I.e. set up the controller from scratch. What I need to do, is take a project code from an exisiting process, make my changes and then test on the emulator. I did it once but as soon as I downloaded the project to the emulator controller I got near on 900 errors as the code couldn't resolve the I/O. If anyone knows of a technote that advises on existing code emulation that would be great. Just to be brave, I actually want to set up multiple emulators and have a couple of codes running at the same time so I can test SCADA I/O, is this possible? Cheers for now Alex -
Hi, I have a challenge with GX developer version 8.63R (SW8D5C-GPPW-E). I'm trying to verify 2 projects (offline). Some programs I know there are changes but they are not shown in the verification. In 1 program I did see the last checked change was in step 1496 (next change I did see by manual check was step 1502. it seems like this type of verification is limited to 1500 steps to check. Is there any way I can make this offline verification work? the most progams that we have in our project are over 2000 steps. big thanks in foreward
