It's been 4 years since v5.
There were performance improvement, bug fixes, added features ...
It's probably a good idea to use the latest version 6.x.
Simply add the license context.

Here is a link for the page in the manual that Archie referred to:

Perhaps, you can use the Molex tools to poke around and see the data as well:

Support Questions / Re: Error handling in form controls
« on: September 19, 2023, 04:09:17 PM »
I am sorry that I had to ask.
There were some crazy posts recently where they have a micrologix PLC and use the Compactlogix driver.
I tested with v3.99y Beta38 and a ML1400, have a basic indicator tie to flasher timer T4:0/TT.
I then unplug the cable and saw the same error.
MfgControl.AdvancedHMI.Drivers.Common.PLCDriverException: 'No response from Forward Open'
You can also see this error by using a wrong IP address as well.
Next, I tested w a CLGX, unplug and I only see the normal 'No response from PLC'

"Until I sort out the runtime error with the MicroLogix, I'm just using the CompactLogix driver."
what is the actual PLC?

I do that too!
The memory base in RSLogix 5000 is a 32-bit data type.
A single BOOL UDT or an array of BOOL[32] UDT have the same size as one DINT.
And the next BOOL after 32 will increase the UDT size to 2 DINT

Support Questions / Re: Rotational Indicator Counter
« on: August 31, 2023, 10:41:17 AM »
This is what I have for determine rotational direction:
0/360
90 270
180
Say you are at 90, want to move to 180. My brain can easily tell that to move CCW for shortest distance, but for machine, it needs to do some calculation first.
0/360
90 270
180
Code: [Select]
CCW = ((Target>Current) AND (Target-Current < 180)) OR ((Current>Target) AND (Current-Target>=180))
CW = ((Target>Current) AND (Target-Current >= 180)) OR ((Current>Target) AND (Current-Target<180))Say you are at 90, want to move to 180. My brain can easily tell that to move CCW for shortest distance, but for machine, it needs to do some calculation first.

Nice job. I think the key here is the visualization helps the situation.
The question here is why 5 minutes? I could have done it within 3 minutes.

Support Questions / Re: Simple DDE Access to display values from (and possibly write to) a DDE device
« on: August 16, 2023, 06:59:52 PM »
I still did not get your big picture.
It appears that you have a flowmeter device that either measuring gas/liquid. The device has a built in DDE Server , but the manual also mentioned other interfaces like EtherCat, Ethernet/IP, DeviceNet, Profinet, modbus ...
Anyway, I don't really see how this becomes an issue for AAHMI support. Perhaps, more appropriately to post it in the Open forum.
You should check into using the NDDE library, it will do what you want.

Can you give us the big picture of what you are trying to accomplish here? do you have a PLC? type of PLC ? type of device?
