Post your code here so we can take a look and give advice
Yes, you right.
Version 9.8.91

It can be done. I'm using multiple URB-TCP modules with one V700.
Give each URB a unique IP address. Configure a socket for each URB module and set up a Modbus config block for each. Use a TCP/IP connect block to connect to the URB modules address.
Of course there are other ways to do it but this is what has worked for me with a V700.
Hi JPG,
I've got PLC V350 and URB-TCP - 2pcs. URB-TCP- I connected to 0 and 2 socket of V350. But If I load programm for 1st URB, after 2nd URB, then 1st is disconnect.
If I load 2nd URB, after 1st URB, then 2nd is disconnect.
Could you give me example, please, how you made it? I think that I've got issue with settings of connection in ladder

Thank you for link.
But I mean not URD-TCP2, I mean URD-TCP - 2 pcs. located in 2 different places. Can I connect URD-TCP- 2 pcs. to PLC.
PLC has only 1 socket № 0 for URD connection. May be has a decision how connect 2pcs. of URD to PLC?

Hi all ,
I've got a PLC V350 and 2 URB-TCP with discrete and analogue inputs/outputs modules.
How do I configure this in Visilogic?

I think that some global changes are impossible, I have well studied the hardware of the Vision PLC and I understand that they are directly related to the capabilities of the Visilogic environment. Therefore, the environment is changing only in the direction of improving the programming features that can be added to the firmware.
In any case, do not try to turn the PLC screen into a smartphone or computer screen. This is not the task of the PLC. By working with the available features, you can get a good interface. But there is such a science as ergonomics and there is practical experience in using touch screens.
Almost all of my projects use the PLC screen only for setup and display. All the start, stop and control functions I try to do with buttons. Accordingly, all those who use these systems say that the buttons are more convenient than constantly wiping the touch screen in one place and as a result change the PLC due to failure of the touch panel.
Example of a dosing device for sand and gravel. The employee does not press anything on the PLC screen. Even the set weight of 60 kg he sees from the active pressed buttons from a distance - without approaching the control panel. The previous control system on the touch panel did not last half a year - replaced by this control box with buttons.
You are right, of course we use physical buttons and duplicate an alarms with lamps, in case the PLC fails.
Unfortunately, I have a V350 PLC - 3 pieces that are out of order.

Your interface looks pretty nice.
I claim that the minimum allowable level (ie level 0, respectively) is when the water goes down to the engine. It is clear that the pump motor without water fails due to overheating. Your desire to make the water level from bottom to top is probably illogical. Because the pump must be switched off before the engine is dry. I highlighted this level with a red line.
Thanks, but this is not the finished version.
L and H are pre-alarm conditions, in case of manual operation. Between L and H is the working mode, which I set to Start / Stop.
Still, I would like more features in the VisiLogic graphic editor. -

I use the following technique for this case. In my case, the level was in the center - it is rectangular.
Pictures of different colors were precisely divided into four rectangular parts and framed the level. Assigning the same bit of index to the four stacked pictures, he changed the color of the pictures. If there are few pumps (two or three), it is more convenient to simply draw separate windows (background) with different color combinations of the pumps and copy the same active elements to each of the Displays (this is done quickly and does not require much effort). If the condition of the pumps changes, switch the Displays. The rest of the elements work in normal mode (because they are repeated in different Displays, and only one is active).
P.S. Please post PLC model used for application.
My PLC model is V700.
I had to spend a lot of time on the primitive. The level bar has placed on top of the pumps and between the pipes. But I'll be think, how make better, because I want make level bar was from 0 to top. -

Creating an interface with normal graphics requires considerable effort.
However, usually the main mistake when working on the interface in Visilogic is to try to make the interface composed of existing graphics and active components.
My advice - to create the necessary graphics without active components in Visilogic - here overlapping of elements and some other simplifications is allowed.
Export the finished image to a BMP file (this is the standard Visilogic tool). Next, crop the black frame and paste the resulting image as the background of your interface.
Then you are free to place the active components on top of the background and set them the necessary parameters.
Some tips can be read here.
It is also useful to watch a video from YouTube on creating Visilogic interfaces.
P.S. You can also create an image in any graphic editor with the size of the screen in your PLC. It's probably faster and more convenient. However, you must consider the minimum dimensions for the active components that you want to place on the screen.
Thanks for the answer.
I've got a task. I need to graphically show the state of a submersible pumps, wet installation in water. The pump has 3 statuses: gray - normal condition, green - running, red - emergency condition. Water shows the level higher or lower. As a Pump I am using "List of images", and Level of water using "bar". Unfortunately they doesn't overlap. But I have no other ideas how to show submersible pump in water, so that it would be intuitive and graphically understandable, and nice

Request to the developers, improve the graphical interface in Visilogic. I can't overlay images on top of each other, I can't move any image to the top or end of the page. To draw a pump with changeable statuses in the water level using a bar, I need to waste a lot of time. Not working return action - Ctrl+Z. And many other problems with creating pictures and animations in HMI.

Thank you. When I check I'll let you know about results
