Feature Request / Re: Cylinder With 2 Signals

« on: July 29, 2015, 12:18:23 PM »

Hi.
I tried with the last version and simulate the signals with 2 buttons, one configured to set true and the other set false. I used the SimulatorCom and TestCylinder as a tag, and remember if you use the HydraulicCylinderAnalog you must set the maximum to 1 and the minimum to 0.
Other  idea ocurred to is if you know time betwin the two positions and being simetrical and steady the maximum propertie could be that value and use a timer control in the form to make a animation and of course the signals sets, in this case, the value of the register or word or tag to 0 or to the amount of traveling time of cylinder.

Hi.
Since you have two signals, you can use the HydraulicCylinderAnalog, set the maximum value to 1 and leave the minimum to 0, in the PlcAddressValue assign the address of a bit or register in the Plc. Now on the Plc  program one of the inputs signals sets the bit or register that matches the PlcAddressValue; and the other input signal reset the bit or the register.
You can do the same thing using HydraulicCylinder control except you dont have the maximum and minimum properties.
I hope be useful.

Support Questions / Re: Advanced HMI with RSLogixEmulate 500, "Failed to get processor type"

What Godra explains its true.
I only use the RSEmu500 driver in RSLinx and also in RSlogix if i want to go online with RSLogix.
Also tried several versions of the wonderfull software AdvancedHMI is with RSEmu500 and the last that work for me is version 398p. I've tried with several processors and the result always be the same. And i use com0com with the same settings listed by Godra; in my tests i used th COM1-COM2 and COM3-COM4 pairs.
In my opinion in the last versions Archie have modified MfgControl.AdvancedHMI.Drivers.dll to have others functions with the remains drivers. But with a conection to a PLC the DF1 works well.
