Support Questions / ChartWithLogging
« on: August 10, 2022, 03:15:09 PM »
I am using ChartWithLogging for logging temperature, placed the chart on ADHMI form. The chart is logging right. However on the form, on Y axis, it says value instead of temperature. On the collection, under Misc-Name, I added Temp(C), but no result. Also for Y axis, there are only major marks (with temp value) and no minor marks. Is there way to customize above? Would  appreciate your help.

Support Questions / AdvancedHMI-MainForm.vb
« on: October 04, 2021, 01:25:41 PM »
I have a build project, which I have used many times in the past. Not opened the project recently. This morning, I opened the project (MainForm.vb) and getting message (screenshot attached). Also, do not see any toolbox (even pressing Ctrl + Alt + X). However as I click Start on the solution explorer, the project opens up. As per direction on the form for possible fixes, I visited this https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/desktop/winforms/controls/design-time-errors-in-the-windows-forms-designer?f1url=%3FappId%3DDev15IDEF1%26l%3DEN-US%26k%3Dk(WhyDTELPage);k(TargetFrameworkMoniker-.NETFramework,Version%253Dv4.0)%26rd%3Dtrue&view=netframeworkdesktop-4.8.

Would appreciate any help to resolve the issue

Support Questions / ModRSsim2 and AdvancedHMI
« on: June 28, 2021, 06:07:50 PM »
I want to learn about Modbus and how it works with AdvancedHMI. As I went through some threads here, I downloaded ModRSsim2.

On ModRSsim2, I selected prot. as MODBUS TCP/IP; Selected Analog Inputs (300000);Fmt. as decimal

For AdvancedHMI, on mainform, added ModbusTCPCom1; IP address was my Computer IP address; Added a digital panel meter on the main form, under ComComponent selected ModbusTCPCom1, PLCAddressValue 300001.

Clicked the Start menu. The main form is displayed with the digital panel meter, without any values.

I think what I did was too simplistic. But I tried to understand how it would work. Would appreciate any help

Support Questions / Circulat Progress Bar
« on: September 25, 2020, 08:33:17 PM »
I have a counter (T4:1) and want to show the progress of accumulated time of the counter. Dragged  a Circular Progress Bar from toolbox to the Main form. On address value, entered T4:1.ACC. Maximum and Minimum values are defaulted to 100 & 0 respectively.  Progress Bar does not show anything. Do I have to enter any other parameters on the properties page?

This is the first time, I am using a progress bar. Would appreciate help!

Open Discussion / Communicating with AB MicroLogix1000
« on: July 16, 2020, 06:54:52 PM »
This topics is a common topics might have discussed hundreds of time in the forum. However, I could  not find any discussion here. I apologize, if I am raising this again.

Anyway, I am having issue communicating with PLC. Getting this message,"Failed to write value. No response from PLC". Here are my steps:
I downloaded the program successfully on PLC ("Do you go to Online". I clicked "No")
Closed the RSLinx
Went to bin folder of the Advanced HMI and open the AdvancedHMI.exe.
As I try to enter value, I get that message.
The PLC is connected in Com4. Below is the code setup,

 'SerialDF1forSLCMicroCom1
        '
        Me.SerialDF1forSLCMicroCom1.BaudRate = "Auto"
        Me.SerialDF1forSLCMicroCom1.CheckSumType = MfgControl.AdvancedHMI.Drivers.DF1Transport.ChecksumOption.Crc
        Me.SerialDF1forSLCMicroCom1.ComPort = "COM4"
        Me.SerialDF1forSLCMicroCom1.DisableSubscriptions = False
        Me.SerialDF1forSLCMicroCom1.EnableLogging = False
        Me.SerialDF1forSLCMicroCom1.IniFileName = ""
        Me.SerialDF1forSLCMicroCom1.IniFileSection = Nothing
        Me.SerialDF1forSLCMicroCom1.IsPLC5 = False
        Me.SerialDF1forSLCMicroCom1.MaxPCCCPacketSize = 236
        Me.SerialDF1forSLCMicroCom1.MyNode = 0
        Me.SerialDF1forSLCMicroCom1.Parity = System.IO.Ports.Parity.None
        Me.SerialDF1forSLCMicroCom1.PollRateOverride = 500
        Me.SerialDF1forSLCMicroCom1.TargetNode = 0

Am I missing any steps? Would appreciate your help.

Open Discussion / Need help to make the program work
« on: November 02, 2018, 05:15:58 PM »
Hi Good Evening! I need any of your help to make my program works. Below are the details:
I made two PLC ladder programs one for running a cycle test where there are two position sensors to make a pneumatic piston extends and retracts. The second program is exactly copy of the first program but instead of two position sensors, I have used two (2) timers(CTU) to extend and retract the piston. I also made corresponding two HMI programs to run each PLC programs. Till now all works perfect.

Now my next idea was to combine these two programs into one program using JSR instruction and using one HMI programs with a toggle switch. If I place the toggle switch to one position then with the JSR instruction the cycle test program with timer will start running. But I am unable to do that. I combined the two programs with JSR instruction and also made a single HMI program with the toggle switch. But only one program works whether I flip the toggle switch or not.

I would appreciate your help. I am very new to PLC and HMI program.
Thank you very much in advance!
