Hi, I have come across what seems to me to be an anomoly. I have a screen with 4 variables I can press the enter button to tab through the variables without entering a new value. However one variable always sticks and requires a new value as if the value displayed is wrong. After much messing around it seems to be associated with the "enable limits" option if its off no sticking I have linearity settings display -10 to 190 MI 0 to 16383 I have Limits of -8 to 90 (display value referenced) this sticks If I combine the axis with limits -8 to 9011 all is well. It appears to me the PLC is checking against Display values on data entry and MI values on subsequent edit Is this correct or am I talking rubbish your view would be appreciated. regards Jim

Hi I am succesfully using uniopc server (now I have the baud rate the same on the plc and server ) But I can't seem to get the sample rate from the opc to plc any faster than 1 second. Is that as fast as it goes ? tia Jim

Hi Stein, Thanks for the reply. I was trying to download some translated screens (French) into an extisting program. In the end I did it backwards :-) I exported the correct ladder then deleted the ladder in the French version and re imported the correct ladder. regards Jim

Hi I am trying to download only the screen data from one program to an M91 already containing a program. The download menu appears to offer a way to download only the screen section. But each time I try it the ladder is also downloaded. Is it impossible ? Thanks jim

OK Emil, Thanks for the prompt reply. I'll do it by hand regards Jim

Hi, I have a problem at present I would be very grateful of anyones ideas about it. 1: a customer requires the screens I have made up translated to French. Is it possible to export the screens to say excel for the translation then re import them to the program? I can see in the help it is possible to export/import some things but cannot see how to do it for screen displays. Thanks Jim
