PL7-3 Ethway in Virtual Machine
Hey there,
I have a very special question for all experts in the old TSX-PLCs. We got about 20-30 TSX87 (and some 107) running in a big Ethway-Network.
Our Maintenance-Service is using an old PC with OS2 and PL7-3 for troubleshooting and programming the PLCs.
Is there any way to run a OS2-Virtual Machine on a Win10-Host PC and get the Ethway-Protocol routed inside the Virtual Machine?
We managed to get OS2 and PL7-3 running inside the VM, but we fail to get the Ethway-Connection inside of it. We use some PCI Ethway-Cards. I don't know the exact name of the card in the moment, but if it is necessary for an answer i will find it out.
Greetings from Germany

Replacement for a servo drive Lexium 05 Schneider
Hello!
I was requested to replace a servo drive Lexium 05(LXM05AD10M2) that is currently malfunctioning and because it´s discontinued, my boss wants a new servo drive to work with the same servo motor, an AC Servo motor(BSHBSH0553P11A2A).
Could anyone tell me if you know some compatible and non-discontinued servo drive for that servo motor mentioned?
Thanks for your attention.

How to Transfer Control Expert EDS files (DTM Catalog Files) to Another Computer ?
Hello there,
I have developed a project in Control Expert before 3-4 Months.
Now I have to open that project backup (.stu file) in another computer with the same version of the control expert software.
The project is opening successfully but I am getting errors from DTM, Because I have used 3 external EDS files for third-party Ethernet IP devices while the development.
Now I do have only txt version of that three eds filed which I have used while developing the project.
Is there any why to add eds using that txt version of eds to get rid of the DTM errors ?
Please refer attached images.

M241 Modicon Modbus TCP Slave input register reading problem
I have been trying to configure my Modicon M241 PLC to act as a Modbus TCP slave using the built-in 'ModbusTCP_Slave_Device' option. I am using Radzio Modbus Master as TCP Master Simulator on my PC. Problem is I am able to read and write the Holding registers but not able to read the input registers. The Modbus Master simulator returns the message : 'Modbus Timeout Error'. On sniffing the traffic using WireShark, the PLC Modbus slave seems to reply Illegal Function, error code = 1 in response to a read request made by the master for input registers. Can you guys suggest some solution for this?
Do we need to separately set the read permission for input registers of Modbus TCP map - if so, how?

Logic help - shifts
Hey,
(Programming a M224 with Machine Expert Basic)
I'd like to get some input from you guys about a logical task:
I have 8 contactors controlled by my PLC outputs, they heat a water boiler.
throughout my operation, I require a different amount of heaters (I could move between 1-8 heaters in a single operation)
I would like to scramble what contactors I put in use every time I start an operation, in order to not constantly use the same heating elements and wear specific ones out.
For example, in the first stage of heating I will use contactor #1, next time I start the operation I would like to use contactor #2 and so on..
How would you approach this problem? SBR? Timers?
Thanks

Citect Scada report according to time
Hello Everyone,
I am working on reports in Vijeo Citect V7.40. I want to generate a report whenever I press the button. I am able to generate it according to date like making a Cicode file and adding the form, whenever I press the button form will open to give me the option to select the date. Similarly, I am trying to make a form for a time also. Can someone guide me on how to do this?
STRING sdate,edate,Em,D,M,Y;
D = DateDay(TimeCurrent());
M = DateMonth(TimeCurrent());
Y = DateYear(TimeCurrent(),1);
sdate= "Start Date";
edate= "End Date";
INT hChannel_M;
FormNew("Select Report date..",38,2,16);
FormInput(20,0,"DD-MM-YYYY Format",Em,20);
D = DateDay(TimeCurrent());
M = DateMonth(TimeCurrent());
Y = DateYear(TimeCurrent(),1);
FormComboBox(2 ,0, 15, 6, sDate, 1);
FormAddList(D + "-" + M + "-" + Y);
FormButton(8 ,1 ,"Select",0, 1);
FormButton(16 ,1 ,"Cancel",0, 2);
FormRead(0);
STRING START_DATE_TIME
D = DateDay(StrToDate(sdate)); //DateAdd Will convert only when the date is in System Date Format
M = DateMonth(StrToDate(sdate));
Y = DateYear(StrToDate(sdate),1);
START_DATE_TIME = Y + "-" + M + "-" + D;
STRING END_DATE_TIME
D = DateDay(DateAdd(StrToDate(sdate),86400)); //DateAdd Will convert only when the date is in System Date Format
M = DateMonth(DateAdd(StrToDate(sdate),86400));
Y = DateYear(DateAdd(StrToDate(sdate),86400),1);
END_DATE_TIME = Y + "-" + M + "-" + D;
VbCallRun(VbCallOpen("GetRep", START_DATE_TIME, END_DATE_TIME));
This is my code for date selection.

Can not start VSD ATV950D75N4 on SCADA
We ordered a new VSD ATV950D75N4 to replace VFD ATV71, so no experience ,When we configured ATV950D75N4 for all parameter to match with motor then configure communication parameter same as original with Modbus TCP network and IP address,It can be communication to SCADA but can't operate motor such as start/stop. And when we turn OFF power and ON, the communication type it change back to default "Ethernet IP" ,Then impact to our network,
How to solve this problem ?Please guide me on this if anyone knows.
Thank you very much,

CPU 14021304
We are using a Quantum 16 Slot Rack and have repurposed it for a RIO on an existing Line. Currently the line is being run by a CPU 14021304 Quantum Processor we have setup the new I/O Rack on the on the Coxial network and the modules via the traffic cop appear to be configured correctly no errors and the rest of the line is running with out issue though we are not using the remote I/O rack discrete I/O in the line as of yet. We set addressing of individual I/O and there appears to be no issues. I have 4, 32bit 24V Input modules where the addressed bits are picked up but the discrete Input channel does not have 24V on the input for that correlated address/register. My thought is I have to have 2 different I/O modules or even a Panelmate Pro I/O addresses/registers configured for the same addresses and that these bits in my code are showing picked up because that address is being used elsewhere on the line. I have went through code before and didn't find an issue. But I am most certainly capable of mistakes. Is my thought correct or could it be a hardware problem?

Moore APACS DCS - Upgrade Experiences
Facility where I recently started working has several "ancient" Moore APACS DCS systems. The resident guru/expert has announced that after 40+ years with the company he'll retire next year. The existing engineering team I joined was slowly converting from APACS to ControlLogix and this effort will get more attention now obviously. Recently our Schneider Service Rep mentioned that they have an upgrade path for APACS to current tech with no re-wiring required. The presentation was impressive as you would expect. But I am wondering, anyone out there who has actually worked Moore APACS and Upgraded to Schneider Ecostruxure and care to share your joys and heartaches of that trip?

schleicher crt panel broken
Hi guys. We have an old machine with a schleicher modular plc system. The display which is a crt type (not a flat lcd panel) is about to give up. Blue stripes across the screen. I hadn´t had any luck finding a replacement for it on so my hope is that someone here has some information regarding replacing it. The cable for the display is connected at a module called USW. Thanks in andvance for any help..

Downloading application to Schneider's HMI through a router
I am attempting to download a Vijeo designer application to a remotely situated Magelis HMI over the cloud by means of a VPN. Vijeo designer's built-in help indicates that this is possible and has provided an example. BTW, I am using Vijeo Designer basic v1.1 & the HMI model is GXU3512.
However, I find the fields for router IP and TCP port nos. all deactivated. How to get pass this roadblock? I'll appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks a million

CPU311_10 Locked Out
I've got a client with a Modicon Unity Controller CPU 311_10 with a NOE 771_01 Ethernet card that appears to have security enabled that keeps us from looking at the code. We only tried accessing the CPU web page from a browser and it came up with a Login we couldn't get past. We didn't have Unity Pro software with us at the time but assume we will still encounter the same security login. The person who was responsible for this system is no longer alive, his company is gone, and there is no backup. Does anyone have any idea how to get into this PLC?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Micro TSX -> Magelis HMI
Hi,
I am looking for information on how to connect a Micro TSX PLC to a Magelis GT2220 HMI.
I originally had a G2220 HMI but a replacement could not be found.
The old telemanique G2220 HMI was communicating to the Mico PLC using a XBTZ968 25pin cable to the AUX port over uniteleway.
Would it communicate if i get a DB25 to DB9 converter?

how read data from modbus read_var function
hello,
Somebody have suggest how need read data from slave using modbus RTU. I am using M241 PLC and read_var function. The picture you can see my PLC program. The data of slave is placed 3394 address. Then I try to read, always "READ_VAR" function get "CommError" which number is 254 that means "The detected operation error contains protocol- specific code" and "OpenError" which number is 3 that means I don't know. How need read from slave data, which modbuss adress is 3394?
