  1. Hi Guys,        In my project i am in need of switching language from English to Spanish and vice versa.For all displays,i switched to the needed language according to the working operator.        In alarm history message,If i am in English language mode means,alarm messages also in English and same for Spanish. My issue is alarm messages were not changed to the current language mode.It keep staying in language which were in current mode while it occured. Please find the attachment, NOTE:Example attachment only.  My question is,how can i get the occurred messages in current language? Help me to sort this. Thanks in advance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!    
  2. I have developed some code for a ProSoft comms module in an offline PLC using their sample RSS file. I now need to incorporate into a machine's existing code. This will require re-mapping of many data file elements to avoid conflicts with the existing data files. There is plenty of scope for editing errors. Is it possible for me to assign symbols to each data register/bit that I've used and copy the program rungs with symbolic references rather than physical references? e.g. Rather than copy this XIO B3:17/2 OTU B122:0/1 BNDCould I copy this XIO MY_CONTACT OTU MY_COILand paste into the recipient program? I presume it would be best to make the edits to my development code before pasting it into the new program. Anyone got a procedure? I've looked at the Address / Symbol Editor but editing the address there doesn't change the ladder - it just moves the symbol to the new address.
  3. Hey all, I've reviewed a number of threads regarding converting one data type to another and I have something I'm working on that I'm stumped on and haven't found an answer for yet. Without getting into the details, I need to get a DINT bit value from an entered decimal value. A user will enter in a whole number in an entry box and then it needs to get converted to the number of whatever bits that the DINT number holds. For instance: # Entered Variable Bit Value -----0------------------0 -----1------------------1 -----2------------------3 -----3------------------7 -----4-----------------15 etc... I'm looking for a fairly clean way to do this, with perhaps just two or three instruction blocks to handle it, if possible. I can provide a screenshot of the HMI and the logic (4 rungs) if necessary. Any suggestions or advice from the group would be greatly appreciated!
  4. How do you jump to non LAD2 in RSLogix 5? I know the PLC5 does Lad2 automatically but cant find any info on how to make sure other LADs (like LAD3, LAD4, etc.) run. Unsure if I am supposed to use a JSR in LAD 3 and jump to LAD3 and then put the SBR and RET instructions inside LAD3. Apologize for the stupid question as am used to do everything in RSLogix/Studio 5000.
  5. Hello, I am trying to get a Fanuc R-30iB controller added into my RSLogix program. The PLC is a CompactLogix 1769-L30ER When I search for new modules to add I see a pre setup Fanuc Robot Ethernet module, but I can't get that to work. I tried following Fanuc's instructions and setting it up as a generic ethernet module, but I couldn't get that to work either, it just says i/o not responding for that module. I am definitely able to ping the Fanuc controller, so I believe I am seeing it. When I add the controller in RSLinx, it's there, but there is no icon next to it's name. I'm guessing because its a fairly new controller, and it came out after the version of RSLinx that I'm using? Don't I need to download the EDS file for the new controller so that Linx can recognize it? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
  6. I'm getting ready to use a 4" PanelView800 with the Micro820, this is my first time, can anybody recommend a good Video, tutorial? I just going to display about 4 or 6 lines of "Instructions" and then have just 2 "Touch Buttons" a START & FINISH. Thanks
  7. Greetings, I'm ok with RSLOGX 500 but am an absolute beginer with RSLOGIX 5000 and was wondering if anyone had any simple sample code just to study. I would love something using analog input and or analog output. thanks in advance.
  8. Hi!! I was using RSLogix 500 starter software for Allnen Bradley 1200 PLC. But few days back the PC in which this software was installed had crashed beyond recovery. Now when this software is reinstalled into a new PC, i am facing activation problem. Following the FactoryTalk Activation manager leads to "Validate Activation" option. Once the serial number and product key are given, it shows that i have zero downloadable activation left. I am not sure what to do now. Please guide.
  9. First of all im using a softlogix 5860 processor connected via 1784 PCIDS card to the 1794 devicenet adapter. my first module is a 16 bit DC input followed by a 16 bit output and finally my 2channel input/ 2 channel output. I can write code in 5000 for the digital IO's just fine and i have the .dnt file setup correctly with all lights green and i can see voltage change from rsnetworks when i monitor the input from the 1794 ADN (setup for 0-5v). From the reading i've done, i know i have to use block transfer msg and there is a sample file included with the version of rslogix that i have but its setup with different controllers and adapters. I've read anything i can get my hands on online from rockwell but the docs on these adapters only show the setup example using the ethernet IP version. in the ethernet IP version you can right click on the 1794 IP adapter in rslogix 5000 and add the module.... you cannot do this using the devicenet adapter. I can include my basic logix file but theres not much to it since I have no idea where to go from here. If anyone has ANY experience with this i would be forever greatful thanks in advance.ANALOG.zip
  10. I would like to create a Ladder logic file to do the following: When an Input is pressed, I want to start a Timer. When the input is pressed again, I want to write the Elapsed time of the timer to a word, and then reset the timer, and start the timer again. I tried putting a pulse Rising Edge Contact to start the timer, and a reverse contact (XIO) on the input to keep the timer going, but this only times half of the time. This is my first project with the Micro810 On RSLogix, I can reset the Timer, so I don’t have this dilemma. Any pointers?
  11. Hi, I have AB Micro820 PLC (2080-LC20-20QBB) which, acc. to the specs, can be both Ethernet/IP master and slave. I need it to be a master(scanner) and communicate with a KEYENCE DL-EP1 module, which is Ethernet/IP slave(adapter), but don't see any way to make that happen. How do you declare/configure Ethernet/IP slaves in Connected Components Workbench and how do you add slaves to your CCW project? I have an EDS file for the slave, but what to do with it? I imported it (have no idea where) with the EDS hardware installation tool which reported all was OK, but do not see the slave anywhere in the CCW. I only see in the Device Toolbox > Discover, but the only available option there is to remove it :) Thanks for any suggestions. Peter
  12. RSLogix 500 Rev 8.20 CPR 9 I'm editing a new program and on a few occassions I have created / edited a comment and discovered that the comment has been applied to the rung and either the one before it (overwriting the existing comment if there is one) or the first rung of the next subroutine. I'm nervous. Anyone seen this behavior. Note: I am using my monitor in portrait mode so program listing is long but I can't imagine that's related.
  13. Good Morning, I have installed and I can download to the emulator, but something is not correct. I can never get it to run. I can go to comms tab and I can see the driver but I can never select it. Is there a trick to this I am missing? Thanks
  14. I am trying to use my RFIDeas pcProx plus reader with my micrologix 1400. I know that the 1400 can send and receive strings. I want to read in the id number from the reader and send it to an external database. Can someone please point me in the right direction? Thank you
  15. Hey guys, I am using RSLogix 5 and I noticed that anytime I go to add a rung comment/title and there is an output in the rung that it attaches the comment to the output by default, and if it is a blank/new rung then it attaches the comment to the rung by default. I want it to always attach the comment to the rung, not to the output. Is there anyway to change it so that it automatically always attaches the comment/title to the rung by default regardless if I have an output in it or not. It's not a super impotant thing, but it is just getting annoying to always have to switch to "attach to file/rung" every time, and if I forget, then I have to go back and remove it from that output. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
  16. Hello, I am trying to capture my downtime on one of my machines. I'm using a MicroLogix 1100 running RSLogix500. A part is produced every half second or so on this machine. There is a bit that goes true every time that a part is produced. I have the logic set up so that the 'part produced' bit is an input in line with a TOF. The preset of the TOF is 5 seconds. So, if the 'part produced' bit goes true and then false, the TOF starts to time. Now, if the machine is running, it will go true again within .5 seconds, resetting the TOF, and the whole processes starts again. If a part has not been produced for 5 seconds, then the TOF done bit goes true, which I have latching on a "down time bit". As soon as another part is produced, I have the "down time bit" unlatching. So, anytime that the machine has not produced a part for 5 seconds, a "down time bit" goes true. I then have the "down time bit" as an input in line with an RTO which I made the time base 1 second. So, every time the machine is down for more than 5 seconds, the RTO starts timing, and even when the machine starts running again, the RTO retains it's accumulated count. I then have that accumulated count being moved into an integer so that i can manipulate it and view it how I so please. I have the RTO being reset every shift change (every 8 hours). My question is how can I manipulate the RTO count, which is in seconds, and convert it into hours and minutes? I suppose i could just divide the number by 60 to get minutes, and the minutes my 60 to get hours, but is there a clean cut way that I can have it convert to hours, and then take the remainder and convert to minutes, and take the remained and put it into seconds? For example, if the seconds were 7320, I dont want it to say: 2 hours, 122 minutes, and 7320 seconds, I would want it to say 2 hours, 2 minutes and 0 seconds. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
  17. Hello I was searching the internet and I came up with this forum. Im excited to be part of it as a newbe I have a question on a micro 1100 with pto outputs to a stepper drive. The drive I'm using is anaheimautomation MBC25081TB - Stepper Drivers with DC Input. I was told that the sourcing output of the 1100 would work fine with the clock input on the drive. this is how I wired the drive and this is how the drive looks. Im not even sure what Im doing I have the plc set up and see it pulsing but for the life of me I can't get the drive to move. Can you please tell me the errors of my ways. Im very new to this and its killing me trying to get this running.
  18. Could someone please printout the attached .ACD files for me? I need to reprogram this modified unit using a Micrologix 1500 PLC system and I don't have RSLogix 5000 software to view the old program it ran with before. Thank you!
  19. Hi, I'm building an AOI in RSLogix 5000 to connect to a 3D Vision sensor. This sensor has an object called a Region Of Interest (ROI), the value of which I output from my AOI as "MyTag.ROI1", "MyTag.ROI2" and so on, up to as many as 20 ROIs. My question is this: Not every instance of the vision sensor will use all 20 ROIs. I want to be able to select how many MyTag.ROI# outputs are visible per each AOI instance, but it appears I can only toggle the parameter output visibility on a global scale. I don't want each AOI to have 20 outputs visible and hogging space if, for example, only 3 are used. On the other hand, I do want the outputs to be visible on the AOI block, and not hidden. Is this possible, and if so, how do I do it? Thanks

  20. S7 200 Fatal Error

    monsieur_horse posted a topic in Siemens

    Hi guys, I have an S7 200 CPU 212 PLC and it is in system fault condition. I am using MicroWin V4.0 and I am connecting via 6ES7 901-3DB30-0XA0 USB PPI cable. I have followed the steps in the help file to find the fault code but cant seem to find how to rectify it. The code displayed in the fatal errors section is: '5 Permanent Memory error on user program' I was hoping that I could upload the program to my laptop, clear the PLC memory, then download the program back to the PLC. This does not seem to be possible and I am now stuck with a PLC in fault. I do not have a backup copy of the program so if I clear the memory I will be stuck. Any advice greatly appreciated

  22. I'm just starting to learn Ladder Logic Programming. I'm using Allen Bradley RSLogix 5000. I've been tasked with developing a 'Simple' Coffee Machine which operates like so: Toggle Push Button to StartDrop Cup (for 10 seconds)Feed Hot Water (for 10 seconds)If required, Add Milk (for 10 seconds)If required, Add Sugar (for 10 seconds)Procedure Complete - Illuminate Complete Light (for 10 seconds)I have implemented everything except the OPTIONAL add Milk & OPTIONAL add Sugar. Options are: To have a Coffee without either Milk or Sugar.Or have a Coffee with Milk and Not Sugar.Or have a Coffee with Sugar & Not Milk.Or have a Coffee with BOTH Sugar & Milk. I'm considering using Toggle Buttons to select / jump to a Subroutine (choosing the required ingredient make-up). But I'm wondering if there is another way to sequentially go through the procedure? Thanks. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/26930902/ladder-logic-simple-coffee-machine-optional-add-milk-add-sugar?noredirect=1#comment42839041_26930902
  23. I am planning on buying a new laptop computer and I need to be able to run RSLogix Micro Starter Lite and RSLinx Lite (the free download version). The release notes for RSLogix Micro Starter Lite list which operating systems are supported. Windows 8.1 is not on the list, but that is the operating system that will be on the new computer that I am looking at. Does anyone know if it will run on Win 8.1? I would sure appreciate any information I could get on this. Thanks Mark
  24. Hello all, I'm quiet new to control and logic systems, I'm still learning. I have to develop a circuit/logic for an application. I was wondering if Micro 810 can be used for this & the objectives of the application are: 1. whenever Signal A(0-24V) is high for the first time in the cycle and Signal B(0-24V) goes high then the solenoid X(24V) should be ON. 2.when signal B is low then the solenoid X should be OFF. 3. If in an instance signals A and B are opposite to each other for more than 2 seconds then a signal should be sent to E-stop. If not Micro 810, what are the other products that are suitable for such application? I know this can be done by normal relay board and some timers; I want to use a controller for this if its cheaper in price. Regards, _SKR
