Hi guys,
i don't have any experience working with HMI's, specifically PanelView Plus but now i need to create a new screen that dynamically load a list of options on the HMI using as a "bind" source an array on PLC with the diferent options that operator can pickup on the screen.
Can you help me with some tips?, like what control i can use to do this job or something.
I really appreciate your help with this guys.
Please help me to establish PLC system with best solution for my problem.
I want to make SCADA have 1 PC to supervise 4 input analog is: FLOW, PH, Temperature, Total, Clo.
Request to use Allen bradley PLC. and my system will communicate to YOKOGAWA DCS by modbus.
So help me to choose allen bradley plc module is available for my system.
I will use winlog pro 33.2 SCADA because price is better than Rockwell automation.
Thanks.
I have a c-more HMI and an Allen-Bradley 1200, is it possible to set them up with two AB 1764-NET-IAC+ to have my computer monitoring the PLC at the same time, I have established communication from my computer to the PLC through the IAC, but I haven’t been able to integrate the HMI, is it even possible?.
This is been setup for training purposes, any help would be appreciated.
Hi guys. I have a problem with a graphic display in my client. It does not load whenever called (either from a push button, or as a start-up display). Display shows whenever I hover the mouse to some buttons, like in the picture attached. Do you know what may seem to be the problem? All other displays do not have this kind of problem.
Also, whenever I open the same display on FactoryTalk View, it encounter problems like, 1)when I scroll, some pieces of graphics are left (see attached) 2) I can't zoom in/out 3) when I click test display, the program will not respond and close.
Thanks!
EDIT: Found the solution. I made another graphics, and copied all objects (not duplicate, because in duplicate the problems still exist).
What I want to know now is the problem of the original gfx. Any ideas?
Hello,
I have a Cognex insight 5100 camera connected to Allen Bradley L62 processor. The is working fine since the last year but sometimes the I/O module faults out with error code 16#0022. I looked online it look it needed a Ethernet cable change ( I did that but no results).
Then I looked at the firmware in the I/O module and firmware in the camera and I found a difference. The firmware in the camera is 4.06 and the firmware of I/O module in the PLC is 4.005. Can anyone help me resolve the communication issue ? I want to know how to downgrade the camera firmware or change the revision in the PLC ( which I cannot )
Thanks in Advance

Dear Support Team,
We have a problem in our AB PLC 5/60 Enhanced device(1785-L60B/E), it is a redundant AB PLC system and controlling a Water RO plant. Another paralleled connected system is working fine.
1. Once power went down and power up, the PLC started showing "PROC" error- Steady RED. Loaded the program from EEPROM, the PLC "PROC" error is gone but the DH Channel A RED LED is started Flashing.
2. After loading the program, the program vanishes automatically even when there is a power, and again showing "PROC " Error - Steady RED. Changed new Battery.
3. Looking for the replacement processor, found same series and part number but the Firmware and REV is different. Advise the selection of suitable replacement.
4. The PLC program is password locked.
Any solutions or work around to solve the issue.
Dear all;
I want to authorize users on a computer.
For example, only the Engineering account can use Rslogic5000 to download the program to the PLC, Others acc is only operate on factory talk view but can't use Rslogic 5000 to download.
I read in Factory talk security document. There is Windows-linked user accounts but I don't know how to apply it to this situation.
Please guide me. We use Rslogic 5000 version 20.01.
Sometimes the presets in the PLC WILL BE CORRECT AND SOMETIMES NOT. Please advise as to it being a problem with my PLC ORSOMETHING ELSE. I has chased all wires and they are connected good.
My new project is to synchronized GPS time with Allen-Bradely PLC. I have logix5561 controller and PanelView Plus 1000 touch screen HMI. I tried to but i didn't find any option.
In the controller time and date setting tab i found, "we can do it by workstation, but here i don't have a Allen-Bradely workstation"
Please guide me how to do it.
Thanks In advance
Hi guys,
Our company has 2 pcs.
One is running RSLOGIX 5000 mini and the other one is running single node.
I would like to transfer single node license to the other computer.
However, I can't find an actual paper license, only information i have is serial#.
Can I still transfer it?
If i can, can someone tell me how to do it too?
Thanks for reading my post :)
Best regards,
Working on my first programming project, converting a SLC500 program to compactlogix in Studio5000. Having trouble figuring out the correct way of converting my COP instructions.
For example
Copy File

Dest. #N48:[N48:9]
Length 5
Hi guys!
I have a problem with derived tags in factorytalk view. I used the derived tags to read an input tag (unit in seconds), and convert it to HH:MM:SS format. The problem is, when I display the values using text display(insert numeric variable), the HH and MM are rounded up instead of being rounded down. Is there an option to round down the results? Thanks!
Is there a way to monitor the Temperature of a Servo Motor on Allen Bradley Servo motors... MPL?
PLC: CompactLogix 1769-L30ERM
Drive: Kinetix 6500
Motors: MPL-B310P-MJ72AA, and MPL-B560F-MJ72AA
I would like to be able to monitor the temperature, and flash a warning screen on the HMI if the Motor gets too hot, or perhaps shut down the operation before the Motor overload trips.
The drive and PLC are connected through Ethernet IP
What I don’t know is if that Motor heatsink temperature information is available to the PLC.
I am having an issue with a 1746-NI8 analog input card installed in slot 3 of an SLC 500 1747-L541. Apparently the PLC is not seeing the card. The card has been replaced one time already. I am wondering if there is an issue with the backplane? I do have an open slot available in position 4. I may try and install the card in that slot next. One very important note is that after replacing the input card the machine worked for several hours without any errors. Only after the machine was powered down briefly and then powered back up did the card show the error.
If anyone has suggestions that would be super.
Thanks
Hello,
Does anyone know if there is a method or function that can be used to define the Trend start date? I would like my trend to automatically default to 12:00am on opening, or at the least, have a button to return the start date to 12:00 of the current day.
or have a userinput section that they can use to select the date and time to display.
This is for logging and printing purposes.
Thanks!
Hi,
New to the site, seeking help with an Inkjet Coder that the company I work for recently purchased. A customer is wanting us to have the printer message selection automated, because parts got out with the wrong print on them. We purchased a Linx 5900 and want to use the serial port on a slc 5/03 to send a command to select the message based on a selector switch's position. I've been pretty desperate trying to find help with this issue, because this is my first time messing with a printer. I've got the AWA instruction set up and it will send a string, but I'm not sure what to have in the string or if I have everything configured right. I've attached the program for you guys to look through, the AWA instructions are at the end of LAD 13. I'm using the serial port to make changes to the program then hooking it into the printer to try the changes out so its a bit frustrating, but I don't have a pc with windows xp sp2 so using the DH485 port is not an option. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Hello everyone,
we have two damaged analog cards for CompactLogix PLC ( 1769-OF8C & 1769-IF8) that we are going to replace.
my experience is with Siemens and Schneider PLC's but for Allen Bradley, not so much
so my question is : are there any requirements or specification other than the part-number that could prevent the cards from going in service directly ?
as for the firmware, series and so on ? and do i need to do any extra work after replacing the card ?
thank you
Best Regards
I have a bad output card its is 1734 OE2C card. My output isn't working. The card is exactly the same as the bad one. What do I do?
Hi guys,
I am sorry for posting same issue over and over but I really want to get over with this one.
The way PLC program setup and actual structure of rack is different.
Could it be a problem when I try send an email from ControlLogix by using MSG command?
When I put 1,2 in the path field, It shows Au200_2 but it is supposed to be Au200_3.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you for your time
I really appreciate it.
