Found In Egroup: Advanced Software \ view thread
Hello, I'm using FTBatch 18 and believe I've found a bug related to String parameter defaults. When exporting a recipe that contains a String parameter with a default value of a single space (" "), the resulting XML is written as . On import, however, that space appears to be trimmed, leaving the ...

Found In Egroup: Automation Control \ view thread
I would like to add some additional information, in hopes that others are able to reproduce it. The minor fault can be triggered without a method call, by toggling the Cmd_ConnectionCheck bit in the raC_Opr_HTTP_Client AOI itself. -------------------------------------------

Hello, I'm wondering if anyone else has tried using the raC_Opr_HTTP AOI's and not had issues with minor faults. We are using the GET request and are able to receive information just fine from the HTTP server but every single time a request is submitted we get a minor fault. Since the minor fault ...

I've seen something similar. Unfortunately for us we will have the echo servers lose the programs even through a normal reboot. We have made it a procedure to turn off the controllers before restarting the server. Then once it restarts, we turn them back on. This will retain the program.

Found In Egroup: Advanced Software \ view thread

This has provided massive performance uplifts when properly used but is easy for people to miss (only a small icon in the top header in view studio). It's really an awesome feature ...

Hi Chip, Given that the issue has tracked you across multiple revisions of PlantPAx config software I am curious if the issue with excel itself. Would it be possible for you to install 64bit excel and run the registry key script shown here: This should be included in the Process ...

Hi GLaDOS, I have done something similar and my suggestion to do this would be to make control strategy library object with a parameter that points to the modules in the IO tree in ACM. This would allow you to not need to modify the Rockwell provided IO module libraries. If you add a parameter ...
