Support Questions / Temp controller decimal

« on: January 27, 2023, 11:32:51 AM »

I searched but could not find any post on this..
I am testing The R6 version of Advanced HMI and a older version and both display the same..
The decimal is at the center of the number display and gets covered by the second digit when 1 decimal is selected.
Is there a way for me to modify where the decimal is place graphicly?

Actually its not that difficult but it can be time consuming depending on what you want to control and how much you want to control. I have used php to control vb6 apps in the past and it works flawlessly. With PLC's it is a matter of safety to keep in mind.

I downloaded the new beta 23 gauge works as expected now. the message Check numericformat and variable is still visiable when running the app but not in the GUI.

One question..
is there any reason I can't or should't use and older version of MfgControl.AdvancedHMI.Controls.dll temporarily?
the 399x version seems to have a fixed 2 place decimal without using the Numericformat.

Thank you for your help.

That's why I asked about numericformat.
I get Check numeric format and variable in the center of the gauge when I put 0.0 in the NumericFormat .

I just moved from 399x to 399y20
the gauge was showing 1 decimal  point in 399x now it shows 8 or 10 decimals how do I get back to 1 decimal point?
Also what does Numericformat do?

I am developing a project using a laptop with touch screen the laptop also has a hdmi output normally simply mirrors the lap top screen.
Is it possible to send/show a status screen of sorts rather than a simple mirror?

Support Questions / multiple hmi interfaces

« on: May 18, 2018, 01:57:44 PM »

Has one used AdvanvedHMI as multiple hmi's to control one plc? what I mean is we have a production line 50+ feet long and we want to control the plc from both ends of the line.
I know there are units that use one hmi as a slave and one as master.
any and al feed back is welcome. thank you.

Support Questions / Starting and stopping an ABB VFD

« on: May 01, 2018, 05:01:43 PM »

I have a ACS800-U4 ABB drive using a RETA-01 modbusTCP
I can read and write everthing but I am having issues understanding how to read and write the control word bits at 40001.
I am trying to use 2 basicbuttons to start and stop the unit.
I have read everything I can find here and eslewhere but still no clear answer(at least for me).
This is my first attemp at modbus and Advanced HMI, I have managed to get everything else working.
Any insite,help or examples would be awesome.
