Mike Johnson Posted August 25 Report Share Posted August 25 Hello, First time using UniLogic and EIP comms, so bare with me. I am using EIP comms to get information from a Keyence Safety Relay. I have found within the EDS files where the data I want to utilize is at, but cannot figure out how to access it. Data is coming in as UINT16 (word) and I can change the format to Binary to view each bit changing as intended. When I create a UINT16 tag within UniLogic I have the capability to click on the Type and open the array to view each individual tag (.0 .1 .2 .3 .4 etc) I do not have the capability to clicking on the Type (its not blue, its gray) within the EDS file from Keyence. Its almost like its "read only" data and I cannot access it. If this is the case, can someone assist with accessing the data coming from the Safety Relay? Thanks, Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Mike The attached images show in the keyence manual where the data is collected. The second image is where the data is within Unistream. My question is how can I access the data within Unistream? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabriel Franco Posted August 25 Report Share Posted August 25 As you create EIP Scanner using EDS files, the tags are created automatically. You can access them as a regular tag, in your case should be EDS_GC_Series_Input.p_30th detailed error code Individual bits inside UINT tags, cannot be directly accesed. Use Test Bit FB.
