Title: Omron C200
Post by: Neeh on February 08, 2019, 06:56:59 PM

I am connecting to Omron C200 PLC using serialhostlink at 19200,7,E,2 and I have a basic label with PLCAddressValue = 100.01.  It just toggles every second. 
There is no error indication but the label does not show the value.  What am I missing?

Try using D0 in both PLCAddressValue and PLCAddressClick. See if it shows the value and lets you change it.

0.00 or 0.01 works but not 100.01 etc.

If you are using 3.99y Beta, set EnableLogging to True.
Put only 1 BasicLabel on the form with PLCAddressValue set to 100.01
Run the application for about 30 seconds.
Look in AdvancedHMI\bin\Debug for the log file
Post that file here

- Download the attached patch
- Open your solution in VS
- In Solution Explorer, expand down the AdvancedHMIDrivers project
- Right click the support folder and select Add->Existing Item
- Browse to the file downloaded from here
- Rebuild the solution

Let me know if that resolves the issue

<<Attachment removed. Will be part of 3.99y Beta 19>>

That resolved the issue.

What is the proper notation to addressing: DM, HR, TC, etc. ?

Typically just a single letter prefix such as D100

You can also use address modifiers to get long integers, float, and BCD. For example:

D100@F
D000@L
