The file was corrupted. I had it emailed again, and it works fine! If you ever run into this issue though, Knowledge Base BF15740 is very helpful. EDIT: linkified technote for convenience -FL ------------------------------ thomas napier KB9RFK [State] ------------------------------

I am programming a Micro 850 and Panelview 800 in CCW v22. I have the programs loaded in the HMI and PLC while I test it. A multi-state indicator that has been working fine for days suddenly no longer works. The error that comes up on the PV800 is "2: Data Access Error for Alias PV_Fault_Message, Controller ...

CCW MOV expecting Bool

I am trying to program a series of fault messages that cycle on a Micro 800. I'm having trouble with the MOV not liking a 1 or 0 for i1. It shows it as a LINT. The element of the DINT is a Bool. Is there a way around this, or will I have to do ANY_TO_BOOL conversions? ------------------------------ ...

I am slowly trying to learn structured text in CCW. At the moment I am just trying to convert the REAL variable "Tap1Counter" to DINT variable "F8_11". Based on the CCW manual: Output1 := FUNCTION_NAME(Input1, Input2); Would this be correct? F8_11 :=ANY_TO_DINT (Tap1Counter); If anyone has ...

This is great! I had no idea you could have a global timer. So you just pull up the global variables, name it, and assign TON data type. Very cool. Now if we could only get a Timer Timing declaration added in the future. ------------------------------ thomas napier KB9RFK [State] --------- ...

Thank you for all the kind answers. It should be pretty simple for me then as I only have two modern PLCs. One is v28.03 and the other is v32.04. All the other 100+ AB PLCs in my plant are either Micro800 or legacy. And going forward, as I upgrade, they will all be v36. ------------------------------ ...

CCW v22 pasting from RsLogix 500

I've been playing around with pasting from RsLogix 500 to CCW. It does just fine with laying out the branches and placing bits. But the variables don't copy over right. Are there and tools or fixes for this? ------------------------------ thomas napier KB9RFK [State] --------------------- ...

Thank you for the kind responses. I am rewriting a fairly large program from an SLC. I printed out all the variables and marked the ones that are used across multiple programs and made sure to make them global. But I didn't think about the Panelview. It's all part of learning. ------------------------------ ...
