RE: Communication issues with panelview c400

Fuzzy Logic, Thank you for your help. My copy of CCW is not working exactly like it should. When I download version 20, I'll try and recreate my screen from scratch and see if that fixes it. It is good to know it isn't behaving like it should. I'll also see if there's anything I haven't tried in the ...

I too, have this trouble with my version 13 CCW. I have other copies of version 13 that don't have this problem. I suspect that your variables are still there, reinstalling or fixing the software may fix it. I'm interested to see what Rockwell's solution for this is. ------------------------------ Gerri ...

Any thoughts? I do have the Ethernet cable for the HMI plugged directly into micro850. Would using a switch between them fix the problem? I suspect this can be fixed. When I was working in manufacturing we had Controllogix PLCs connected to HMIs with lots of tags and in order to get the HMI working we ...

Communication issues with panelview c400

hi, I was wondering if there is a way to clear a communication error between the Micro850 and the Panelview c400. Right now the only way to do it is hit the okay button one time for each tag. This communication error comes up when I download a new program to the PLC. I know why it happens and it makes ...

I am not given that option. When i click scope I just get prog1 and prog2. I've changed the names of my programs so they are no longer called prog1 and prog2. I attached a screenshot. I just downloaded v.20 and I am able to click scope and see my local and global variables. Maybe it is a bug in ...

CCW v.13 Local and Global variables in the project organizer tree

Found In Egroup: Automation Control \ view thread
I'm not sure how the local and global variable works in the Project organizer tree. I thought in version 12 I could see and modify all of my local and global variables either from the Project organizer tree or the variable selector box. In version 13, I put in global variables but I only see them in ...

Who do I contact to make suggestions for updates on CCW version 14?

How does Rockwell decide what improvements to make to CCW when they do their updates? Is there a way I can suggest changes? I really like CCW, now that I have learned it. In the past, I used RSLogix 5, 500, and 5000 so it took me some time to learn CCW. I would like to see the gap between the legacy ...

Fuzzy Logic, It does seem to have other issues. I did try and repair it but it didn't fix it. I may have to uninstall it and reinstall it. Gerri ------------------------------ Gerri G ------------------------------

Hi, The issue I am having is, if I add an alias to a tag it only updates on the contact I added the tag to, not all of the contacts with that tag. Please refer to the picture for clarification. Is there a setting I can change to get it to update all of the contacts with that added alias? ...

Scott, Evidently I don't check this email often enough. I'm just seeing this now. Thank you so much for this info. I'm so happy to be able to change power flow to the color green, a color that makes it easier for my students to understand what is going on. Gerri ------------------------------ ...

Does anyone know why CCW uses blue and red to signify power flow in a rung instead of green like they use in RSLogix 5, 500 and 5000? Green is intuitive, does anyone know if those colors can be changed? I know other colors can be changed in properties.. #CCW​ ------------------------------ Ger Gorlich ...
