Not sure if there is a salvage of this VLP file, but I have a V570 that has "mysteriously" broke the screen.. The plc still functions BUT when I try to upload the program I get the "File is not burned" error. Is there anyway around this? (The person with the file is no longer with the company.)

Here's the details: Just started it yesterday after a restart. Windows 7 Pro 64 bit No other versions installed Not trying to open a project at all, just wanting to look Rebooted several times I am the Administrator Don't really want to uninstall Thanks! John

When I try to open my Visilogic I'm getting the following issue: Help?

UPDATE I was able to verify that Joe is right. I can read all of the MI's in the Modscan32 as he laid out. I have all the stuff working somewhat. The only issue I have is the Hour Meter. My SCADA system is old enough that I can't read the 28000 registers. So I want to convert the ML18 into a MI for ease of use. And yes, I understand the reasoning use of the ML gives me a lot larger numbers (Seconds), but for what I need the MI at 32767 is plenty. I humbly ask if there is a way to do this gracefully?

Going to have some time tmrw and hope to get to goof with it some. I'll report back on what I think I understand. THanks to all for the help! John

OK it work!!! Thanks all!!! The only issue I have is according to the Operand help file I can only go to ML511, and to get to 30030, I will need to go to 1358. I tried to take the running hours, ML78 to ML1358. I don't think I'm getting this operational yet. So I think it would be ML78; STORE; ML1358 ? Or am I reading the Excel sheet incorrectly? But I have some ML's that I will need to STORE as either a ML or MI. Is there an easy way to do this in Visalogic? I have a ML I am needing to store as a ML and I can emter the ML read but the store side will only let me enter 3 digits? I read the forum and appears to be very easy in the Unilogic.

I have a lot of the DSPLE's running in my place of business. So please define what your wanting to display? Tags from the DSPLE or the tags your sending it?? The forum has been very helpful getting me going with my first Unitronics project

Yes the remapping of the SCADA side is off limits. Bummer for us.

OK, attached is the couple of lines using the STORE, copying MI3 to MI29. Will get the modscan going tmrw and report back Layout.vlp

Ok, here's the dirt: I have a Cygnet Scada interface that is using say, 30030 as Discharge Temp. In my new device, using the Unilogic V570, I need to make my MI3 into the 30030 register But: MI3 12291 36867 20483 24579 28675 40963 MI3 doesn't land in the 30030, so I need to get it there. Somehow. I'm first time Unitronics new, but the forum has been very helpful! I should get the needed additional Ethernet card tmrw and plan to try the method Joe mentioned above. I'll plan to update tmrw, if the world doesn't come crashing down.

In the competing brand of PLC, we take two 16 bit words and do a copy command to join the 16 bit to make a 32 bit word. The method is clunky at best, but functional.

Thanks! I'll hope to give it a try this afternoon. I would ask if I could copy the 30000 register into the 40000 register? Like you can with a two 16 bit words into one 32 bit? Just thinking... Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Ok, I have a register "MI3" and I need it to end up on my SCADA Modbus reads table as Register 30030. It's for a Discharge Temperature. Easy??

Thanks! I'll get my questions together as I get some free time!

OK, thanks! I have about 60 registers I need to remap to a specific Modbus registers as the SCADA system is bordering on antique. (Like me) I'll do my best to get them all cross referenced and posted here.

OK, I've been reading about the modbus functions and noted that I could use the Data Tables to be read by my SCADA server? Can I import the tag & registers form the SCADA sheet into the Data Table? Then I could put the MI or whatever into the first column to be read? I will be getting a cabinet later this week I hope and can start trying to get the data form the V570 to my SCADA interface. I will looking at how many registers will be used and maybe the use of the Struct command will give me enough to do what my employer is wanting.

I have inherited a challenge to make a Modbus table match an existing layout in a SCADA interface for my employer. Is their a way to map the 570 to line up with the given registers? For instance, I have a temp transmitter in the V570 at an address, and need it to be mapped to 44014. Is this doable? (I'm trying to drink from a firehose. I appreciate the forums inputs)
