Hi Andy, For the PLC internal timing, I believe you are interpreting this correctly and I stand corrected; I'll be running this past our team. Thank you for diagnosing the situation so thoroughly! Edit: I'll add that I was rechecking our page for Connecting to FT Logix Echo, and I noted that FactoryTalk ...

Hi Nemo! Succinctly, you're absolutely correct; there is no built-in feature for Baggage Handling conveyors (or any other Emulate3D out of the box conveyors in other catalogs) to track the loads on them, because conveyors have a Body Type = Deflector, while PEs have a Body Type = Sensor. Included ...

Hi Andy, Happy New Year! Glad I could be of help with the first question, & now I fully understand the nuances of your second. Today, Emulate3D only accesses existing controller/program scoped tags. In other words, if some PLC property/variable is internal (meaning that no tag holds that property's/variable's ...

Hi Andy, hope you're well. Q1: Succinctly yes, the device based alarm's internal timers can be configured to be lockstep with any model speed. Once you set up a co-simulation connection between your model & PLC, any PLC execution will be lockstep with any Emulate3D model run speed / stop interactions. ...

RE: Issue: Tire Needs to Move with Vehicle After Robot Mounting

Hi Loganathan, Without having all the details about your model, I'd try the approach of reparenting the tire to the vehicle so that when the vehicle position is manipulated, the tire locations follow. This reparenting action can be achieved using either C# or quick logic, which is executed after some ...

Hi Joey, I'm glad that worked! As for your question, you will need a fully licensed Emulate3D software installation to properly run plugin commands. This is because those CLI calls rely on the same Emulate3D services that run in the background on your machine, and those services are packaged with the ...

Hello, hello! Expanding on the other great responses here, I'll reiterate that to force the value of the server item (what you have circled above), you'll need to access the relevant BindableItem. Example code summary: The custom simple property has an associated event firing whenever the property ...
