Any luck getting some information on this? I'm in the middle of specifying for around 180 pieces of new equipment, and was going with the 5800 after being told the 5700 is going EOL. Are the 5200 series going to be less costly? More port options? ------------------------------ David --- ...

Hello Dave, how long is a batch, and how accurate must the average be? Is it that the flow rate and moisture together represent the moisture of the product at that time, and it's all going into a larger container to become a complete mixed batch or product? If using ladder only, you may need to do multiple ...

RE: PID loop Control With A external Limit

Hello Matt, In this case then, I recommend a cascaded loop. Loop 1 is to control the process air temp, and its output is used as the setpoint for loop2 which will control the combustion chamber temperature. The setpoint MAX for combustion chamber temperature can be your safety limit. ------------ ...

It looks like with the PVEU scaling tied to the SP limits, if the actual PV exceeds PVEUMax, the results may not be as desired / expected. I think though, to answer your question more could you explain what the different temperature sensor is? i.e. load temperature? Is this an application where a cascaded ...

In this case, if such an automatic login to OPERATOR is desired, I suggest creating a splash screen for power up that displays whatever information is relevant to the project/equipment. Put an "OK" or "CONTINUE" button there that does the login of the user name you want other than the "DEFAULT" - ...

This is what I have so far, with not a single line drawn to show topology. I have these devices grouped by Line and Cell, and all these were found using the discovery tool, but the "Discover Topology" button has done nothing. What is it I am missing that I cannot get anything looking like what is shown ...

Is there a projected release date for that? I'm actually rather disapointed with FTNM so far. I thought I would be able to build a decent network topology diagram with it, but it does not even show connection lines between devices. Am I missing something? ------------------------------ David Littlejohn ...

How can you manually add details and name an unknown device in FactoryTalk Network Manager? I recently installed and am in the process of doing discovery, etc. for initial configuration, and FTNM has several items listed as device type "unknown" and will not let me change the devices to what I know they ...

Hello. Thank you for the response. I need to find something more secure than this, I believe. If I understand correctly, this method would allow discovery of a user password by swiping a card to an RFID reader connected to a keylogger, or notepad running on a computer. ##HL40
