  1. Hello everyone! Is there possibility to read words e.g. Name of alarm from the csv file or another file and save it in the PLC memory for further processing? It would be the best if the solution will matches to FX5 and IQ-R/F but it can be also for any of them. Thanks for help :)

  3. Hi All, I'm testing Cx-supervisor communication with ODT Micropower PMAC controller on modbusTCP. I'm able to establish the communication using ModbusTCP driver with cx-supervisor. But, data I'm getting in is Low word first, so not able to convert properly. If anybody has tried any other option/script for this issue? I did not found any setting in Cx-Supervisor as in Kepserver, shown in attachment below: How can we swap the registers read as a 32 bit word from controller? Thank you.

  5. DOPSOFT HELP

    I'm using HMI DOP-B03E211 and its connected to DVP12SE11R PLC . In the DOPSOFT i would like to know how i could create a list of the whole indications in the system - once a specific indication is on, the list shows the name of that alert ( " system alarm failure") when its off the list doesnt show it .  there are indications in a bit form ('1' or '0') and in a word form (temperature indication). how can i create a list that combines whole system indications including bit indications and word indications?   thanks.  
  6. So I have been using Tag Groups for a while But I have run into a problem that has me stumped I am trying to get the .value of a tag group item and use it as part of a file path Example   Creating a file name from a tag.value Set MyTagGroup = Application.CreateTagGroup(Me.AreaName) Dim Dfile As String Dim NewFile As Tag MyTagGroup.Add "Recipe\Recipe_FBK_Formulation" MyTagGroup.Active = True Set NewFile = MyTagGroup.Item("Recipe\Recipe_FBK_Formulation") Dfile = "C:\Access_DB\" & NewFile.Value & ".txt" 'name of  file End Sub Now the value of Tag Recipe\Recipe_FBK_Formulation is equal to "CF12GH" and will show that if I drop a string display object on the display But when used as above, Instead of the value, it seems to be trying to use /::Recipe\Recipe_FBK_Formulation as the value not CF12GH So what am I doing wrong

  14. Keybord Shortcuts

    Guys, I am using TIA v13 for HMI programming. Is there any way we can add a keyboard shortcut to group/ungroup the objects? I checked in Options > Settings > Keyboard shortcuts but there is nothing I can use. Am I missing something silly? or Siemens just doesn't allow that?
  15. Guys,  What is HMI Tag group that can be added under the HMI tags in the Project Tree? I am new with siemens and trying to debug an HMI. The error is " ,The parameter of a function is not available for trigger 507 - Analog Edit, event 'Loaded'. The referenced object does not exist.,,,". There is a weird event set up upon loading of the screen which is causing error. Thank you in advance. Please guide me.
  16. Good morning, I'm having an odd issue with CX Programmer and have hit a wall. I'm trying to upload a previous version of a program to an existing PLC (CS1G-H CPU42) and I keep getting the following error when I compile while online: "The read protection properties which are not supported by the connecting target PLC are set. Check the unit version of the PLC." This prevents the program from being uploaded. I have a first revision CS1, manufacture in 2005 from what I can tell. This exact program has been uploaded previously, but a modified version replaced it recently and I need to go back to the older version. Things I have tried so far. without success: - Removed UM Protection - Made sure Task protection is off for all tasks - Check DIP Switch #1, which is write protection, and made sure it is off - Used "Remove Password" and "Release access" functions from the PLC/Protection menu - Used the auto-verification to confirm the configured PLC is correct - Reuploaded a full backup of H & D memory, from the older program I am able to compile the program when offline, but it chokes when online. I am connecting to the PLC via a serial cable. I haven't found any help from the CX Programmer help, or the CS1 programming and operation manual. This error message is nowhere to be found. Anyone has a clue ? I'm at a loss right now. Thank you !
  17. Hello All, I want to read data from a Control Logix PLC, into a PLC5/60, using Ethernet and a MSG instruction in the PLC5. When verifying the MSG instruction in the PLC5, I get an error message. "Target Address in invalid". Once I figure out how to do this I need to replicate it in another PLC5. Scope is to read the status of 4 paint pumps controlled by the CLX. If any of the 4 stop, the PLC5 needs to know, because it is controlling the paint application equipment. Source data resides in a Control Logix 1756-L63. The tag is INT type, 4 elements long, and the name is PUMP_STS_B2. The IP address of the CLX is 4.2.6.230. There are 2 ENBT cards, one in slot 1, and the other in slot 3. 4.2.6.230 is slot 3. PLC2,5 / SLC Mapping has been created in the CLX. File=421 Name PUMP_STS_B1 and File=422 Name Pump_STS_B2. The file mappings represent a binary file created in each of the PLC5's B421:0~4 in Booth 1, and B422:0~4 in Booth 2. The PLC5/60 is Enhanced series E model using the Ethernet side card. The IP address of the PLC5 is 3.26.5.61. I also created MG file types in each of the PLC5/60. MG420:0~19 in each processor. This was necessary to use the MSG instruction in the PLC5. I have searched the forums for examples of how to do this with no solid results. I am trying to follow the best practices of reading the data into my PLC so anyone who follows can tell where it is coming from. While the IP addresses are not closely related they should be able to communicate. I say this because all of our PC's are on the 4.2.6.XXX network on a 255.255.252.0 sub net and we have no issue communicating with the 3.26.5.61 IP address. Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated. Regards, Mike Carter
