  3. Hi,

     

    I have a few question because i don't understand how this example is working.

    I understand that i need to fill the data table for the alarms details, but i don't undestand how to set an alarm.

    I think i have to set a bit in a array, but wich one?

     

    Can you explain me how to set an alarm

     

    Thanks

     

    Hello stephc3

     

    You are correct, setting an alarm is done from an array of bits, under the "Alarm Example" struct. 

    You can access this array directly by typing "Alarms Example.User Event Array" in a tag input line. There are 250 tags in this array.

  4. When I put operand(which has a operand description) on the screen in the ladder, then I cannot see operand description. If it is the description short, it is shown, but only when it is MB operand. I have 9.3.1 version of Visilogic on Windows 7. I have tried advices (changing resolution, size of fonts etc..) which were mentioned in the other topic but they has not worked. College has the same version, same resolotion of the screen, same OS and it works correctly but He did not remember if He changed some settings. Could you help me?

    Hi,

    1. Please send screenshots of this issue.

    2. Please send the details of your system - CPU type, operating system, system memory etc.

    3. Anyway, we recommend updating your Visilogic version. The current version is 9.7.9, and has a lot of fixes in it.

  5. Hello,

    I tried to configure Modbus RTU network with few unitronics jazz plc, one of them was old JZ10 series controllers, and other was new JZ20 series controllers, the problem is that the new JZ20  doesn't transmit data when controller is configured to work in odd or even parity, then old series JZ10 controllers works fine with all parity types - none, odd and even. Is it a bug or I'm doing something wrong?

    Hi Martynas1

    I tested modbus communication for both JZ10 and JZ20 and both can successfully communicate with the Modbus protocol for different parity bit settings.

    Could you give some more information regarding this issue?

  6. Whenever I try to connect with Samba (SM35-J-R20) via VisiLogic (9.7.9 Build2 OS Windows7 32 bit) i receive error 206 (Communication driver error), I/m unable even to  get com parameters by connection->Communication &OS-->PLC Status

    I have tried Build in port as well as USB-rs232 converter, checked port nr, baud, fifo etc...

    Cable is fine - works perfectly on laptop with win XP.

    Following instructions concerning UAC did nothing, as well as running as administrator.

    Downloading new install file also didn't helped...

    Once in a while whole application crashes (Some infinite comm loop?).

    Is there any other options i could try?

     

    Hi,

    Several questions:

    1. Can you connect to the Samba PLC from the laptop running Windows XP?

    2. Can you connect to other PLC's from Visilogic on Windows 7?

    3. What type of USB to RS232 converter are you using?

  7. Hello all, I'm new to these components and the forum and looking for advise. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

     

    First off I received a unit that was supposed to be pre-programmed, but it was not so I finally got programmed. My problem is that it is supposed to fire the relays every 28 seconds and it does not. I can access the menu and fire the relays "manually" but I can't figure out why program is not working. Any advise/troubleshooting tips for a newbie?? I'm thinking that the initialization string maybe wrong...just not sure what I'm looking at to tell.

     

    Thank you in advance for any and all help.

     

    Hi,

     

    Please send the application to support@unitronics.com and describe exactly what you want to achieve.

    Hi there,

     

     

    I've been working with the ladder in UniLogic, and have been finding that the comments are ending up in different font sizes, etc., but I can’t see a way to reset them. I have been copying across to Word, to try and spellcheck them and make sure I can read the comments properly, the pasting them back in and sometimes they end up in different font sizes (maybe also fonts? but harder to tell that).

     

     

    Also, I’d like to make the comment that it was nice in VisiLogic that you could expand the comment part of the rung so that it showed the whole of the comment and it’d be nice if you could either do that manually in UniLogic or have it automatically expand the comments to show the whole of them if they are longer ones. Scrolling longer comments to read them is extremely fiddly and can make the comments hard to read.

     

    Hi LPK,

    Regarding text editing in Unilogic - In the ladder screen you can select the "Edit" menu from the ribbon. You have all the Microsoft Office tools like font sizes and colors, padding etc.

     

    Regarding expandable comments in Unilogic - Thanks for the suggestion. We will review it. In the meantime, you can divide your code into regions. At the beginning of every region there is a fixed space for comments of several lines of text.

  9. Unfortunately I have filled in the Alarms Detail table.

     

    I've been in contact with support and sent them the file.

     

    I've been using Unitronics since 2001 and remember doing the alarms in the M90 and the VisiLogic system as well.  In the past I was always able to use a "Working" example as a starting point.

     

    My problem is I can not get the example to work.

    Michael,

    The example is working. It was tested and being used by others.

     

    Please explain what exactly is not working for you in the example. 

    Also, please note that when filling in values to a data table, they are not automatically being downloaded to the PLC. You need to manually write these values to the PLC. See the attached image.
