I've studied the examples on the site, but they're all top-level examples to me.
Are you referring to the examples that come included with the VisiLogic install (Help / Examples / then drill down)? If not, take a look at those.
If your problem is a basic understanding of Ladder Logic, then do an internet search. There is a lot of information available to help you understand how that works.
If you have a grasp of Ladder Logic and have reviewed the example projects that come with your VisiLogic install, then make your best attempt at writing your project and post it here. Someone will be happy to help you further.
There are also a number of YouTube tutorials that Unitronics has created that may be of some help.

The PLC needs to be configured to a non-encrypted email address, but any email address (gmail, hotmail, etc...) can receive it right?
Yes.

Use your trigger instead of the HMI trigger in the logic of Joe's program.

Everything in the email function block can be indirect addressing or hard coded - your choice. Any number of different emails, recipients, etc can be sent using a single email function block using indirect addressing.

You may find this useful. Be aware that you cannot send emails through a server that requires encryption.

In VisiLogic, overlapping HMI elements is not allowed when they are active elements and is inadvisable when they are inactive (certainly when trying to use the Hide property). You just need to figure out another way to present your data.

Good afternoon!I lost the initial program, which brings factory, is for plc v130.
If someone can pass it to me, I would appreciate it.
Regards!

I didn't look, but my recollection is that was for VisiLogic, not UniLogic. Either way, it wasn't very successful.

If I'm not mistaken, the V200-18-E2B Snap-In module does not have thermocouple inputs. You'll need a V200-18-E3XB.
-
Check SI 103-106 also. Try entering a value of 20 or larger. For sockets initialized as Master, check SI 107-110.

I just noticed that you're trying to enter a number for the PLC name. I think it needs to be text. You can still use "209", for example, but it needs to be text (string) entry, not numeric entry.
-
Yes you can do this. You don't even need to cycle power. Just use a positive transition of an MB entered into the "Legal entry" field of the text entry box to reactivate the Set PLC Name FB (as well as the usual SB2).

I finally decided to get a new 3.5 inch Samba unit and replace the M91.
You're going to re-write the entire program because of a failed Enter key???

I don't work with U90 Ladder all that often, so maybe there is a better way to do it, but this should work:

P.S. @Flex727 - You know I love my state machines.
As should everyone!

I'm not entirely sure what you are trying to do. You say you know how to do it with Reset & Set - go ahead and do that and post it here. I'll take a look and help you with the analog portion.
-
I'm still of the opinion that this could be a vibration issue. Did you tape or screw down that Snap-In module? Vibration can also wear the contacts, so if you have already taken steps to lock down that module, the 570 and/or the I/O module may need to be replaced and then locked together.
-
Look in the Help file under Float to find the Float Convert function. That function is available in the ladder Math Menu.

Unfortunately, I don't live within driving distance and won't have any availability until 11/20, but you are welcome to PM me directly or email to blanier @ arc-controls . com (remove spaces). I live in Texas, but I am experienced at handling projects remotely.

My response from Unitronics Support has always been within 24 hrs and most often within the same day.
-
Under Utils/Clock, there are functions that allow you to specify action based on Time of Day, Day of Week, Day of Month, etc.
-
Use a self-resetting 24 hour timer to increment a counter. When the counter reaches the appropriate number of days, it will trigger the action you want. Then reset the counter to start again.
-
Unfortunately, I think the answer to that is no.

You don't have any provision to remove old data. Your moving average will keep growing.
It doesn't keep growing because the sum is multiplied by 99 then divided by 100. In other words, you take 99% of the 100 point sum and add the new value (which is 1% of the total). As I said, it appears to me to be a bit smoother and more laggy than a genuine 100 point moving average (which sometimes can be a good thing), but it is only 3 steps and two operands to create a (pseudo) moving average of any number of points - to the limits of a 32-bit integer.
However, I'm going to study your LargeFilterJT a bit.
By the way, that vlp file appears to have been saved with 9.8.64, but you seem to be using the version from before Unitronics fixed the database issue to prevent it from being opened in 9.8.31. You should remove that version and re-download & install.
-
That's a common problem. Glad you got it working.

What is turning MB 216 back on? Also, what is "pressure stays high"? Which bit is that?
Set up a Master "Master"....
in ...I have a project...what hardware do I need?

This should be mostly possible. As far as I know, there is no "Disable Touchscreen" function in VisiLogic, but if you write the ladder in the Samba correctly you can enable a bit from the V1210 that can prevent any actions coming from the touchscreen. That bit would have to be in series in the ladder with any touch bit on the HMI and you wouldn't be able to use the "Toggle" property of binary elements.
Bottom line, I don't see any major obstacles as long as you can update the program in the Samba.
