Open Discussion / Re: adding page to mainform

Did you add the same driver to Page2 as the one you have on the MainForm?

In Visual Studio, when you look at your controls on Page2 each one of them should have a driver assigned for communication.

As bachphi suggested, keep in mind that AdvancedHMI is a VB Net project so some of your questions might just be VB Net related in which case you should use Google search. There might be several different ways of achieving the same outcome so read as many of the search results as necessary.

Also, don't get stuck with just one AdvancedHMI project - scrap it if necessary and start fresh or even have multiple AdvancedHMI projects handy to test different things.

If you are doing this for a U.S. company and they can afford it then check the main AdvancedHMI page, which has a banner that states: "Training classes offered both at our facility or yours. Classes for up to 6 people for only $600 per day".

I am not sure if this is offered virtually as well, you can always ask Archie.

Considering how many questions you have asked so far, it might take them a single day to actually explain in details how to go about using this software.

Other than what is suggested above, take your time to learn this yourself and check all the topics available in this forum.

Also check all available videos and to get you started here is the AdvancedHMI YouTube channel and a topic that covers some others:

I did not know that, sounds like it is susceptible to atmospheric pressure or something else related to  the weather.

All in all, I am not much into dragonflies even though it's a part of my GitHub username.

bachphi, just so you don't find dragonflies scary here is a link to 14 Fun Facts about dragonflies:

Try changing the UnitID from 0 to 1 since slave devices ID should go from 1 to 247.

If this is all done on a Windows based computer then there is another test you can try:

 - Download the exe file from here: https://github.com/GitHubDragonFly/ModbusMaster
 - There is also a slave simulator exe file available for download but you can stick with your simulator
 - See the attached picture of how these communicate with each other

dmroeder, there is a few more posts in this forum that suggest the same, like these 2:

  - https://www.advancedhmi.com/forum/index.php?topic=2568.msg18010#msg18010
  - https://www.advancedhmi.com/forum/index.php?topic=2563.msg16237#msg16237

I did bother contributing to your pylogix project since it's open sourced and people can find it useful.

Maybe Archie could pitch in his knowledge of SINT type.

Here is another link that states the same as what I posted previously:

Your testing might actually simplify the overall approach and improve the knowledge of those who dare to try using Node-RED and this particular module you used.

I might eventually try this myself.

bachphi, that's nice.

Could you post any more info or screenshots (like setup flow text file and a screenshot)?

I have a repository on GitHub which showcases Node-RED and pylogix / pycomm3 libraries, which can be seen here:

   https://github.com/GitHubDragonFly/Node-RED_PLC_Example

There is also a link to this post so anybody looking for more information can get it here.

bachphi, your statement seems incorrect to me.

SINT, INT, DINT, LINT should be signed integers and USINT, UINT, UDINT, ULINT should be unsigned.

Check the following link:  https://help.codesys.com/api-content/2/codesys/3.5.12.0/en/_cds_datatype_integer/

If your SINT[4] is 4 elements then your declaration should be Public STR4(3) As SByte.
