We've all been there, done that, have the t-shirt!! glad it's working!

We really do need to continue to moderate responses. However, we have taken some steps to reduce the wait time--hope you will note an improvement

Hi There are three topics for PID. One of them is PID Tips. Have you seen this topic? Is it of any help?

Regarding the Help file--you are correct regarding the array functions. I hope to have this corrected by the next release.

Thank you! I am forwarding your request to the team. Keep 'em coming

Thanks, Flex! Noted and corrected

This is so cool!!! Great application!

We no longer publish this because people would install the "Library", not update it, and then use outdated specs, which created problems. However, if a user requests it, we can provide the "Library" via ftp - with the understanding that that it contains the documents current at that point in time.

This is your friendly neighborhood forum administrator! Just wanted to say that I walked in this morning, and had a look at this thread It is a great example of what the forum is all about (viscoelastic, speaking as a former dairymaid, I must say that really like your avatar )

Hi Michal! Apologies for missing this post. Do you mean the Hardware Documentation?

We just ran a major update of the forum platform. Word to the wise--make sure that your 'Follow' preferences are intact.

Guys--sorry, I never saw this! I don't know if there is much to be done about this annoying issue, but I will submit it.

She does. We all do - genetically hardwired. And the system is watching you :-)

Optimist. They'll be too busy watching reality TV. As long as government doesn't interfere with the Kardashians, they won't care. A few weeks ago, a house guest turned on the TV and tuned in to that show. I had never seen it - I average maybe 3 hours of TV a month, and it would never occur to me to watch something like that. I was stunned. The absurdity is that people care about these reality shows more than what the government is doing.

Thanks Marcus! Question: do you mean like a template style, so that anytime you used a tank it would have the same fill color?

Hi guys Up here in Unitronics HQ, we are interested to hear of users who have used UniLogic High-speed Scenarios, such as "Measure Length" which enables you to count pulses in order to measure the length of an object on a moving conveyor belt. Scenarios, by the way, are a great way to implement Interrupt functionality - since the functionality is processed directly in hardware, it is very fast - without having to actually write code. You can post here--or contact me directly Thanks!

Hello there :-) The Help file for UniLogic does contain information on how to use passwords to ensure security--check out the attached screen capture.

Hey--my apologies! We missed this and I will get it fixed today. Thanks for writing and sorry for the inconvenience
