RSLogix 500 & VB

[slcman 9]

I found in tools -> Visual Basic menu some VB feature. Can I put some VB code in my project? If yes, how I call the VB code? How I can use VB??? Thanks

Been several years since I tweaked with this feature, but it allows you to create scripts and macros which you can run over and over from within 500. For example if you want to take 10 integers N7:0 thru N7:9 and do the Sum, Average, Mean and Standard Deviation and place the results in F8:0 thru F8:4 then Vb can create a script/macro for that.

Last question, the VBA code is execute in the PC or in the PLC? Like in your exemple, if I do a SUM of 10 integer and put it in F8:0, who do this job? PLC or PC thanks for your help

It is done in the PC with RSlogix open.
