Are your alarm bits packed in a larger value type such as an INT or DINT?

The address of 40001 in AdvancedHMI should write to MHR40001

But all of then start with some kind of message identification and numbering.
ModbusTCP packet has a transaction Identifier, Protocol Identifier, and a packet length that precedes the PDU.

It sound like the simulator is using ModbusRTU

Can you download version 3.99y Beta from this forum and test with it? 3.99x is frozen from any changes, but 3.99y is still actively developed.

Which Modbus driver are you using and what Mobus address are you putting the PLCAddress of the control?

Support Questions / Re: Path Segment error

Path Segment error has always been a tag name when I saw it. Make sure the tag is not a program scope tag.

The best way I found to verify this is to get the tag list using AdvancedHMI

Will it run straight in pi without installing mono?
As far as I know, the WinForm extensions for .NET 8.0 will only target Windows. I haven't tried it yet, but there may be a possibility that AdvancedHMI v8 will no longer run under Mono.

The big push is now for .NET MAUI and Blazer for the UI to be cross platform.

After a very long wait for Microsoft to work all the bugs out of the latest WinForms for .NET, it seems to finally be here. For AdvancedHMI, this means a major update to the .NET 8.0 framework.

The update has been about 80% done and tested with decent results. So far the chart controls were the greatest challenge because the chart component that used to be part of the .NET framework has been removed. Thankfully it was all open sourced and the community has updated it.

The next big challenge are the COM components which consists of OPC-DA and one of the TwinCAT drivers.

A beta version may be available as soon as by the end of the month. It will be posted in the members only section. It will requite the latest update of Visual Studio 2022.

Support Questions / Re: Colored box based on analog value
« on: November 16, 2023, 09:28:42 AM »
Two hacks come to mind:

1) AnalogValueDisplay - Use a full block character to give appearance of filled shape

2) AnalogVisibilityController - Add to Labels each with a different background color. Use AnalogVisibilityController to control which one shows

- From the All Windows Forms toolbox, add a timer to the form.
- Set the Interval to the number of milliseconds
- Set Enabled to True
- Double click the timer on the form to get back to code
- Add this code:
Code: [Select]
ModbusTCPCom1.Write("40001",1)

Support Questions / Re: Do-More BRX EthernetIP?
« on: October 15, 2023, 03:20:49 PM »
Do you have an example of SetAttribute?
That has not been implemented yet in the driver. This could actually be a show stopper for using Ethernet/IP with the BRX.

Nice detailed explanation. I am interested in trying this.

BTW, I reformatted your post to make it easier to follow by using the [code ]  [/code ] tags
