  1. Hello Guys! I have a problem what I can't really solve. In factory talk view (10.0) I wanna use a momentary push button. When I start the project, and I click on it nothing happening, the button activate only when I release it. Its like there is an OSF instruction inside.  I want the button activate until I push. May I use a wrong button ? Could you guy please help me with this? Thanks ahead.
  2. 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!    
  3. 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
  4. Hi all, I have an application where two buttons are created: End Batch: "Momentary Push Button" that modifies the value of a tag. Print Report: "Display Print Button" that generates PDF with a screenshot of the current screen. I would like to mix both buttons into one single button that does this functionality at once. I have been reviewing forums and it seems that the only way to do that would be by using VBA code but I believe that this is not available on FactoryTalk View ME but only on SE. Would anyone know a way of printing a PDF screenshot + modifying a tag at the same time and with a single button on FactoryTalk View ME? Thank you!

  5. Reset button with structured text

    Wictor posted a topic in CX-One

    Hi! Pls program: When you bush the safty button on/off.  You must bush the reset button to make the pls-program function again.  Q: How do I program the reset button in structured text (cx-programmer) ?        
  6. 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.
  7. Hello, I am trying to have single press and double press etc. functionality in my PLC program where for example, single press will turn on the motor whereas double press will turn on the motor for 5 seconds. Is it possible to achieve using ladder logic in sysmac studio, if yes, how? Thank you in advance.

  8. FWRIT(701) To Memory Card

    NootNoot posted a topic in CX-Programmer

    Hi Can anyone please help with the following issue. Equipment  PLC - CJ2M-CPU33 Setup is being used to log distance measurements from a conveyor belt to a compact flash card in the PLC I have successfully set this up and it is working by writing values to a stack then when this is full, changes stack and writes the data in the previous stack to the card. The FWRIT command has the control word #3D00 (Comma-Delimited, Return every 16 fields, Append, Memory Card) The problem I am having is with the data in the CSV file, I am logging typically 300K lines with 16 values.   Towards the end of logging the data in the CSV file will start to return every 5 values instead of 16 which is just painful to re-format. I have attached an image of the Excel data to explain better. My Two stacks are  Stack 1 - E0_0   -   E0_16003 Stack 2 -  E0_16010   -   E0_32013   Thanks for any help.
  9. 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  

  10. Latch switch

    MarinusS posted a topic in Mitsubishi

    Hello  I'm quite new with GT Designer 3. I'm writing code for the GOT2107 HMI. I have a few push buttons that works fine when pressed the switch lights up as you touch the switch. But now I want a latching switch. Every time the switch is pressed the light on the switch should alternate. How do I get a switch's lamp to stay on after pressing it?   Thank you Marinus
  11. 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.

  12. CP1H Communication HElp

    ryleeha posted a topic in Omron

    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
  13. Hi everyone, Using Cicode programming ...

  14. Hi Guys I was wondering if any one of you could tell me how to set up some basic button functions? I need a basic instruction on how the followering button setup, could be done on the HMI, preferable with exaples or tutorials etc. !!! I´m working with the current setup: NX1P2, using Sysmac Studio, Module version 1.25.1.0, along with a NA5-Terminal, version 1.18 !!!  START_VALVE_1_BUTTON = Toggle, Momentary, Set or ?? - (Need the START_VALVE_1_BUTTON to activate ON_BUTTON & OFF_BUTTON flashing, indicating selection option, ON or OFF, meaning activating start valve 1 mode, or deactivate the mode). START_VALVE_2_BUTTON = Toggle, Momentary, Set or ?? - (Need the START_VALVE_2_BUTTON to activate ON_BUTTON & OFF_BUTTON flashing, indicating selection option, ON or OFF, meaning activating start valve 2 mode, or deactivate the mode). ON_BUTTON = Toggle, Momentary, Set or ?? - (Need the OK_BUTTON & the OFF_BUTTON to flash simoustaniously, after START_VALVE_1_BUTTON, or START VALVE_2_BUTTON has been pushed). OFF_BUTTON = Toggle, Momentary, Set or ?? - (Need the ON_BUTTON & the OFF_BUTTON to flash simoustaniously, after START_VALVE_1_BUTTON, or START VALVE_2_BUTTON has been pushed).  !!! Hoping to hear BACK from some of you VERY soon, because I need the know_how ASAP. !!! !!! Write soon !!!
  15. 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?
  16. 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?
  17. 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.
  18. 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
  19. 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.

  21. 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.
  22. Is there something to open a message box with confirmation (Yes / No) when the operator click on a button, like in cx-designer Or do I have to code it in Vb.Net Thanks
  23. 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 :)
  24. 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. 
  25. 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
