I have set up a timer in exostructure expert basic and am trying to get the contdown value from the preset of 20 to show in vijeo designer but it tells me the %tm0.v is read only and cant find the variable in Vijeo designer to show it.
Does anyone know how to do this?
Hello,
I have a vision system that is logging images via FTP to a computer running a published InTouch application (Wonderware 2014).
I would like to add a feature to the application to display the last captured image to aid in debugging the vision system.
I suspect I would need to write a script that periodically checks a folder for images and retrieves the most recent image. Can InTouch be extended to display an image based on a file system address?
Any thoughts or advice is greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Cam
Hi
I have a customer with a number of Zelio SR1 PLC's fitted to various equipment, these are now obsolete, I would like to make backup copies in case of a failure.
My problem is I have the programming lead for the SR1 but the software is no longer available from Schneider, I have contacted my local rep and he also have drawn a blank.
Have anyone a copy they could send me, it must be the early Zelio Soft version 1?
The software that is freely available to download from their site will not work with the early SR1's
buenas . tengo un plc tsx57103 que pierde el programa al quitar alimentacion pero no luce el led de fallo de bateria . tengo un respaldo en EEProm pero al arrancar no pasa a run hay que pasar a run desde el PC. he visto que se puede configurar una entrada digital para el paso de run/stop . pero tendria que reprogramar la eeprom con esos cambios .
la EEprom que uso es de 96Kb . en la configuracion hardware solo tengo opcion a dos tipos de mem de 32 y 64 Kb .
de que forma puedo realizar los cambios y guardarlos en EEPROM.
otra opcion que estoy barajando es el uso de una ups para mantener la CPU con tension .
agradecria comentarios .
un saludo
Hi All,
I need a technical support regarding Wonderware In Touch alarm summary.
We generated the high and low alarms for the transmitters in alarm summary.
In Tagname dictionary,
The alarm state is on. The alarm events are only logged the on status in alarm viewer control.
The alarm state was off. The alarm events are only logged the off status in alarm viewer control.
But in alarm DB viewer control,
It generates both on and off alarm status in alarm summary. I need to show the only on status of the IO’s in alarm summary alarm db viewer control .
How to filter the on status of the alarm summary in alarm Db viewer control. Herewith I have attached the image file for the alarm viewer and alarm Db viewer control for your reference.
Our scope is to show only the On status in alarm dB viewer control with backup.
Here I have attached the image file for the status of alarm summary. In that, two alarm present in that window. First alarm represents alarm DBviewer control. Second alarm represents alarm viewer control.
Kindly guide me.
Thanks,
Loly

Hi, I would like to know how can I change screen using PLC program for the HMIST6400.
Hi,
First of all, thanks in advance for those who support and advises.
I have a Modbus/TCP operational network. Last week a NOE 771 01 on one of my Hot Standby PLC System, Standby PLC stopped communicating. On its display the indication Fault, Kernel and Appl were illuminated. I replaced the card with a new one. It normalized but after a while it happened again on the same PLC. I tried with 3 new NOE cards but the fault remains. When I tested the card on a test system on my desk it seemed to be ok. The firmware and configuration is checked to be correct. What can cause this fault? Appreciate very much your advise. Thanks.
Hi,
First of all, thanks in advance for those who support and advises.
I have a Modbus/TCP operational network as shown below.
However, at any 1 time only 1 LAN is able to communicate instead of both LAN networks of the device. In another system with S.E Premium Unity PLC, both LAN networks are able to communicate at the same time.
Thus, I would like to enquire if this is a limitation of Quantum NOE 771 whereby only 1 LAN can communicate at any one time or whether I have missed out any parameter/configuration settings? Any issue on the IP address configurations?
Please advise.
Thank you very much for the advise and assistance.
Good Day everyone i'm just really new in PLC programming using M221 series on Ecostructure basic. Can someone help me to make a program that will ON/OFF one digital output depending on the temperature setpoint of thermocouple input (module TM2AMI2LT). Thank you so much
PLC is old one, but I need to add one feature, Signal can be very short and when I get it I want to stop auto mode. I am afraid that signal can be so short and skipped by normal input.
How I can set input as an interrupt input.
I read that PLC has events processing and it can be triggered by
" inputs 0 - 3 of position 1 module, on rising or falling edge" - in first slot I have card TSX DMZ 64DTK. ( 32 inputs and 32 outputs)
is it true ? - and how I associate it.
Maybe I create new Events and as an input I use f.e %I1.0 or I configure it somewhere?
thanks for help
Hello,
I downloaded the program from the M251 PLC program, using the SoMachine4.3 environment. However, the downloaded program does not compile because the library is missing. The library is from a different manufacturer. Is it possible to find this library on the M251 PLC device? is there any way?
Hello Everyone,
Can I use TM2 module directly on M221 PLC without TM3 module. Thank you
Hello,
I am doing PROFACE HMI touch screen projects, and I recently came up with an problem. I am using GP-PRO EX software to program and then later I would transfer the project to my PROFACE GP-4501TW. Now I came up with a problem, on one page there is no buttons on labels that I had written, But when I check it on the software its still there. So, its like I have buttons programmed but not showing on the touch screen! Also I can touch the buttons and it beeps and using WINDLDR I had found that the button works but that its somewhat hidden. Later I found out that LAMP FEATURE was turned on that caused the ''invisible button'' to happen. So, when I turned LAMP FEATURE OFF the buttons would return on the touch screen. I tried Preview, Simulation mode but all that showed the buttons. I have attached he pics below
THANK YOU

Morning all, first off, when it comes to controls I’m pretty green so please bear with me. I have a bunch of old Modicon TSX Compact plc controllers. Some of them have randomly stopped controlling the outputs, I replaced the output card (module? I don’t know what to call it), but no change. I don’t know if the program is messed up, or the main board or something else. I want to read the plc but don’t have and can’t find the software to do so. Any suggestions is greatly appreciated.

Hello all,
I'm having issues with multiple 171CBU98090 momentum processors. They are programmed to read Modbus ASCII via XXMIT block from two devices ever 5 seconds or so to poll data on 10 Modbus registers. The processors run without any issue for a months and out of nowhere they go in to halt. Does anyone know what may be causing this? I contacted tech support many times over the years but all they could recommend is to update the firmware, which I did and issue persists.
thanks!
i am working on temperature sensor to measure temperature and humidity. so for this purpose i do all the requirements, and finally get the value through animated table in Memory word %MW0 and %MW1. But the value is not same for what i am looking. eg here temperature is 25 c. but in animated table the value is to high. i want to take the exact value. Please help in this regards. Thanks
Hi Friends, I'm facing this issue while uploading from M340 PLC to PC with UNITY PRO XL V12.0, I'm able to Go Online with the PLC but not able to upload, what could be the reason, please help me
thanks in advance!..
Hi folks,
I'm using TM200CE40R comm with SMS modem GT-7600E via TMCR2SL1 RS232. I was using send_receive_msg to send the SMS functions. The SMS has been sent out successfully.
I can get "OK" response at hyperterminal. However, I'm facing a problem to get the modem response "OK" at PLC. I always receive the same commands that I had sent out. Then, I turn off the echo mode by using AT command ATE0. Suppose I should get "OK". In the end, I get 16#0D0D (carriage return).
Anyone have better idea to counter this or any experience to have better setup? Do I have to use SR2MOD03 with send_receive_sms function?
