RE: DeltaV → CompactLogix Ethernet/IP Write Issue (1769-L33ERM 5370controller)

In Logix, the External Access should be R/W... Other that that, anything external... the HMI, another Logix controller, or an Emerson controller... can R/W. Must be something on the Emerson side. What is the Output Mode in that table?

Generally DeltaV will initiate R/W commands (UCMM) and Logix will respond. This is similar to how an HMI will initiate R/W commands and Logix will respond. For an HMI, a lot of the data is scatter tags. For controller to controller (Emerson to Rockwell) we generally create datasets. The easiest is to ...

Some of the advantages of #2 Historical data Store and forward - so you don't lose any data when the internet is down. Exception - In data historians (like FT Historian, OSIsoft PI or AVEVA Historian), the "swinging door" algorithm reduces storage needs. It filters out data points that can be ...

Most people have the concept of a Local/Remote or Operator vs Automatic control as illustrated below with a two-position maintained selector switch. It would require operator intervention to change the "mode" from Operator to Automatic and back to Operator again. Command Source, PCMDSRC, is built-in ...

Not sure what release was on that old image, but since you asked about v15, I tried both v13 (server 2019) and v15 (server 2022) and they were both successful.

That's not the results that I got. I was using an older image that had both PB32 and FTVME and it worked fine.

The root cause is the PanelBuilder32 application configuration. The Node Type field in the communication settings was set to Unknown rather than specifying the actual controller type. FactoryTalk View Studio wil create all tags as local Memory tags rather than Device tags pointing to the PLC/SLC. ...

Reboot the data server (RSLinx/FTLinx). If that doesn't fix it then look at the specific tags to determine the source... Is it an HMI tag? or a direct reference to a controller (via a shortcut in FTLinx and which controller). -------------------------------------------

Reading directly from chassis-based IO like the 1769 is generally not documented and not supported. The exception would be 1734, and 1794. I'm not saying it's impossible, but the more easy and supportible route is to read the data from the controller that owns the IO. ------------------------------- ...

I would suggest sending it over to tech support as follows: Tech support needs to replicate and document the issue before it ever gets to engineering. If you can provide a sample to illustrate how is works fine with an EtherNet/IP module but does not work the same with the embedded port, that will ...

RE: 755TL fan filter

Why is the exhaust filtered? To maintain a NEMA 12 rating, the enclosure must be sealed against airborne dust, dirt, and dripping non-corrosive liquids. Because a fan-cooled system actively pulls ambient air into the enclosure, you must have both a filtered intake and a filtered exhaust.. see also Hammond ...

I'm not a drives guy... Can you explain the section that you marked in the photo? It looks like an MCC section? I don't see anything like that in the PF755TL document. Generally air comes in the filter on the bottom and exhaust out the top hat. I would expect the inlet filter (bottom half of the door) ...
