Hello,
I'm very new to this sort of software and programming.
Can I use this software with a RS232?
-
Yes. What PLC are you using?
-
That's great :-).
Hmm not sure sorry.

Ive tried to open Advanced HMI with Visual Studio Express edition 2015 but it says "You cant open a project with this edition"

Do you mean Visual Studio 2015 Community Edition?
Did you unzip the files?
-
No Express Edition 20015 for Windows 10.
Yeah I did :-)
-
Is it Express for Desktop? I think the Community Edition is the replacement for the Express editions.
-
Yes, I downloaded and installed Express for Desktop
-
I'm not sure why it won't work. I haven't tested anything with an Express version since version 2010
If you create a new blank project, can you add a label to the form and run the application?
-
Seems to work now, ive installed the community version.
Is there any tutorials for this program?
-
There is a Quick Start guide on the main web page
-
Cheers,
I seem to have 2 errors when I click on build?

Did you write some code? Those error codes sound like something for a web page.
-
Sorted it now - I dragged some code into the main code by mistake Doh.
A couple of Q's.
Can I make my own icons?
How do I use the serial data RS232?
-
You will have to know which PLC you plan to read data from to know which RS232 driver to use.
You can make your own icons. If you look in the additional components section of the forum there are some example icons there.
