Toshiba T1 PLC

[Mosca 0]

Just looking to see if anyone knows how to get the T1 micro series of PLC's from toshiba to retain state after power loss, I have the primer and can't seem to figure it out, I bet its really simple and staring me right in the face Thanks for any Suggestions

Been a decade, literally, since I touched a T1, but if I recall correctly they behave much like the Omron C1000H of the same era and only the retentative registers retain state thru power cycle. Might check Toshiba Website for the user manual.

Yea, I have all the manuals and anything PDF related to the T1, as well as the primer written by Ed Dropka Nothing in them, can I find a retentative registers, even a search in the help file of the program brings up nothing about retentative anything Thanks for the suggestions though

If you check page 72 of this manual http://www.ctiautomation.net/PDF/Toshiba/Toshiba-T1-16S-Manual.pdf it talks about the programming tool being used to declare retentive registers. And if you check page 34 and 35 of this manual http://www.rucken.com.br/pdf/PROSEC-T1-16S-Manual-do-Software-TPDS-em-ingles.pdf it will show you how to declare and create retentive registers with TPDS Win32.

Ok, I'm going to go get my eyes checked Thanks for pointing out the obvious When I do figure it all out and put it in a working program ( a few issues with mode mismatch ect right now ) I will put up a detail of what I did, and the next person in ten years to stumble along it will know

For Future Users - In the software goto - PLC - System Parameters - Retentive Data Set the Register number you want to use (Must be in RW, T, C or D) Program using R for seal in circuits so it retains on output or data, might lead to extra programming but do what you have to I know it says RW in the file, but it will hold through R registers
