  1. Did you try doing the install as "Run as Administrator" ? Windows 10 can be One Big Royal Pain to work with sometimes. It has some real "I know better than you quirks ."
  2. The 0V and +V are for to power the relay coils internally only. What do you have on the CM Terminal? The relay contacts are dry contacts and share a common connection on CM. Power on CM ( eg. 24 VDC) and load( eg. 24 VDCRelay Coil, or solenoid, etc. ) on the contact to the return( eg. 0VDC) Dant
  3. Hi Rajat; The data tables have a certain amount of memory allocated for them. You can have 1 or several Data Tables, but they all have to reside together within the space given. The number of rows is limited to the space available, the number of columns and the structure of the columns ( boolean, Integer, long, string) Have you considered moving some of the data onto an SD Card?
  4. Analog inputs 0-10V have a MAXIMUM voltage of about 12 volts for the input. Above that may damage the analog input circuit. You have to use a voltage divider network to limit the maximum voltage of the pot to 10 Volts. What is the value of the Pot? That can affect he input impedance of the Analog input also.
  5. Hi Guillaume; Have you looked at the Example programs in the Help Drop Down? Help - Examples-Version 900-Project Examples-DataTable There are several files there, open and review V570_Data_Log For SD Card examples, look in the SD Folder. Dant
  6. Hi Mousemania; Windows 10? Latest Updates? -- Win 10 is a real pain! Uninstall 1.22.13 Get Into Control Panel - Programs and Uninstall the SQL Server Shut down the computer. and Restart. ( Sometimes RAM remembers what is supposed to be erased ) Install 1.22.13 ( This will cause an new SQL Install to be done ) (When doing and uninstall of a current UniLogic, it does not uninstall the SQL Server. Uninstall SQL Server forces the New UniLogic install to install it again, Subtle changes can cause headaches)) Been there , done that ! Dant
  7. Hello TheCarb; You will use the Function Blocks Protocol Scan and Protocol Receive. There are a few examples to work from in the Help/Examples/Version900Communications/FB Protocol The Baldor Example shows the Protocol Scan and Protocol Receive and the Serial Com Setup. Have the temp controller handy for bench testing. Dan Thomas
  8. See the attached program. Screen 1 Displays the number - but it cannot be edited Press the Up Arrow to go to the Next Screen to edit the number Press Enter 2 times -- 1st to accept the new number, 2nd to go back to the main display. Dan JZ20-Edit a Number.U90
  9. Hi; What type of encoder are you planning to use? Single Channel - pulse train counting up in any direction? Internal or external reset? A-B Quadrature Count Forward or Backward? With marker pulse? The High Speed Inputs are configured in the Hardware setup , select the method, assign an MI(16 bit +/-) or an ML (32bit +/-) If encoder inputs are NPN, then set the Jumper( internal) for NPN - ALL Inputs will be NPN Check Example Programs - Help-Examples for programming
  10. Hi; Is this a NEW , just purchased PLC - Model? Try 1111 for the password. else contact support@unitronics.com Is this in a piece of equipment already programmed? The programmer has set a password to lock the program from being uploaded. Contact the programmer/Equipment manufacturer to help on this. They may supply password(slim chance) or offer their service or a replacement PLC( at their price) Program Passwords cannot be reset if set by the programmer. There is NO Back door to a Unitronics PLC once a program password has been set by a programmer, or if the Upload Bit has not been set during a program download.
  11. There is an application for a more graphical Webserver based on the V350 Series. and uses a SD Card. This is a locked set of subroutines written by a programmer years ago. They cannot be exported, so you have to use that as the starting point and change the PLC model, and built your own control logic on top of it. Look under Technical Support-Tools and Applications-Complex WebServer Just be prepared to scratch your head a lot. There is not a lot of support information about it beyond what is provided in the zip file, and old forum posts. Dan
  12. Hi Enrique; The Vision Series Web Server feature is VERY Basic. Text ONLY, You can create pages for text, display variables, modify variables, display strings, and enter strings. Not much , but useful for basic what is happening here and simple set point changes from afar. If you want to have a full featured Web Server in your PLC, go to the UniStream Line. Check out the UniStream Videos on the Webserver on YouTube.
  13. The USB ports on the Unitronics PLC's are for Programming Only. They are not available for communications with other devices. You will have to use the Serial Ports( installed, or added in) or an Ethernet Port ( already installed or optional Addon)
  14. Download the UniStream Examples , unzip it and there are examples of Trending and Data Sampling display in there to work from. - Create a Global for the Temperature Variable - Link it to a Data Sampler - In UniLogic, Under Screen Elements there are the Graphing Elements, add it to your HMI screen Unitronics YouTube Presentation link :
  15. Hi Ljuba; See also my response for the JAZZ. In Visilogic, Right click on the display, select fonts and select a font to use. On the left there is Select All and all the characters will show up with Blue background ( the standard fonts will not allow a Select All, so add a new font ) Maybe there is an easier way, but this is what I have tried : On the screen, to display the 'special characters' (0x80 -0xFF -- 128-255) use the Display ASCII String and imbed the special characters in the MI Vector. The Programming display will not show them , but when downloaded, the characters will be displayed. ( note 2 characters per MI, enter as HEX because it is easier to decode the 2 chars in Hex than as an Integer) also the entry is invereted ab (0x6162) is entered as ba(0x6261) in the MI. 0x just means Hex Format This may not be the best solution, and if there are better solutions from others, please contribute. We all learn. Dan
  16. Hi Ljuba; I will assume you have selected the Cyrillic( Russian ) display Language. The Russian Characters you want to display are selected by the Special Characters when setting up the display. These are in the ASCII Table in the 128-255 section IN U90 Ladder, the display will NOT display these special characters, it will simple show the ~ ( tilde) symbol. When the program is Downloaded into the PLC, Then the correct character will be displayed. This is a part of U90 programming we live with. In English , when we need to use the special characters, it is the same. We get the ~ when writing the program and it appears on the display in the PLC after the program is downloaded. Dan
  17. HI; Customer has to Ethernet/IP into an OMRON Safety PLC. We have the EDS file (NX-EIC202), and can make the connection and get the Basic Parameters. The issue is setting up the T2O and O2T Assemblies and Structs for the Global Variables. ( we have done Ethernet/IP Setups for Bar Code Scanners and MURR IO Blocks sucesfully,) We cannot locate the relevent data in the Omron Information. Information, experiences would help. Dan
  18. Hi; I had the same problem last week with that same message. Tried to Uninstall Visilogic 9.8.31 - That came up with the Catastrophic error message. I wanted to try out Visilogic 9.8.64. Blundered my way thru it, made some mistakes on the way, but finally got Visilogic 9.8.64 to install. Has your computer recently done Windows 10 Updates?
  19. Will passing the result value from Linearize to the tag assigned to my AO cause it to output my desired voltage? Yes it will.
  20. Review Specs for Analog Out -- 0-10V is 14 Bit ( 0-16383) 0-5V is half of that Example Data to convert In is 0-100% ( 0.0 to 100.0) Use Linearize Function In is 0 to 1000, out is 0 to 8191
  21. RS485 is Daisy chain, just link them together. Use shielded cable and ground the shield at one end of each link A+ to A+ etc . B- to B- etc. The UniStream is 1 and each device has its own ID Number Baud rate is set to be common to all Connect 1 at a time and get it going before adding in the next one. Be sure to use the terminations 1 at each end,
  22. Got the answer from Unitroncis Up to 16 EX-RC1's can be used with a UniStream PLC+HMI
  23. The Minimum USB DOK is 4 GB for Upgrades. Anything less will cause the UniStream to Brick - I have seen one do this - It had to be replaced.
  24. Hi Oobretenov; YOU MUST use the EX-RC1_IO.vlp example as your base program from the UniStream Examples because there are differences in MI registers being used from the EX-RC1 Examples in Visilogic. Rename the file when you have made configuration changes to suit your project. Did you configure the EX-RC1 _IO for your I/O Modules? Set the DIP Switches on the EX-RC1 Module for the address ( 2 and above) UniStream is at Address 1 by default Then do the Export file, and Import it into UniLogic. The Export file from the EX-RC1 tells UniStream what I/O Modules are connected. Make sure the ID number you set is the same as the DIP Switch setting on the EX-RC1, Leave the General Buffers Unchecked. Then do the the Export from UniLogic of the INPUT and OUTPUT files-- At the top of the properties --, and Import these back into the EX-RC1. The Export files FROM the UniStream back to the EX-RC1 set up the Structs for the Inputs and Outputs properly to synchronize with the I/O Structs in UniLogic. Be sure to put the files in the right Structs in the EX-RC1. Be sure to Setup CANBUS Com Parameters in BOTH the EX-RC1 and the UniStream to be the same Baud rate ! This is a separate setting in UniLogic. Be sure the Terminating Resistors ( 75 ohm) are on BOTH the UniStream Connect AND the EX-RC1 Connector The CANBUS is an isolated Communications system, It needs its own 24 VDC power. It does not draw power from the EX-RC1 Module. On the EX-RC1, The I/O COM Led is Green and Steady when the I/O Modules are running properly. On the EX-RC1, The BUS Com LED is on Steady when the CANBUS is communicating properly, else it flashes. Dant
  25. Hi Felix; If the unit is under warranty - less than 2 years old, contact support. They may cover it under warranty thru your distributor. Else -- buy a new one - maybe your distributor will give you a break.
