Hasan Posted September 28, 2021 Report Share Posted September 28, 2021 I have recently purchased Samba3.5-J-RA22 and downloaded the visilogic software. I want to learn from examples but most of the examples are not working with my model. Please guide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanT Posted September 28, 2021 Report Share Posted September 28, 2021 Hi Hasan; The Example program were created before the SAMBA was developed and the models used have more memory available. In these cases you can re-assign the memory locations from the higher ranges to the ranges for the Samba within VisiLogic . Under Edit there are a few real handy functions : Find Operand -- see where an operand is used and how many times Replace Operand -- to move an operand from 1 MB/MI to another Open the example, review the MB's, MI's and move them to the SAMBA range, Save the program under an new name Then Under View, Hardware config change the hardware to the SMABA Model OR Place the revised ladder into a subroutine and export the subroutine and import the subroutine into the SAMBA Program and deal with the warnings. Also remember to check the Analog setups and redo manually in the SAMBA HMI's are more difficult to work with , they cannot be exported and imported into a SAMBA, so best to re-create them in the SMABA HMI. The SAMBA has a Limited Memory range for both Ladder and HMI. DanT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MVP 2022 Flex727 Posted September 28, 2021 MVP 2022 Report Share Posted September 28, 2021 Good advice from @DanT. I would add that you don't necessarily need to download the example project into your Samba to learn from it. Open one of the example projects that you are trying to learn from, study that example (they usually have pretty good rung comments), then re-create your own program from scratch for downloading into your Samba. You will likely learn more by creating your own program than simply loading an example and playing with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
