Open Discussion / Datalogger2 missing seconds!

« on: February 09, 2017, 01:03:53 PM »

Hi,
I ran the Datalogger2 control for 4 hours in parallel with a Yokogawa chart recorder. 
When I compare the two files I saw there are 283 seconds (4.72 minutes) missing on the log file from Datalogger2 control......!
Missing seconds are randomly distributed through out the 4 hour period.
Any ides why this happens?

Thanks

In Meter2.vb -> Public Overrides Property Text()
This is how you have it right now...

Code: [Select]

..
...

If ValueScaleFactor = 1 Then
     MyBase.Text = value
Else
     MyBase.Text = value * ValueScaleFactor
End If
...
..

Below is my modification

Code: [Select]

If ValueScaleFactor = 1 Then
     MyBase.Text = value
Else
     If value Is NumericFormat Then MyBase.Text = value * ValueScaleFactor
End If

Thanks,

Yes I tried it too. Same app did not crashed with my simulator.
But when I just pull the Ethernet cable from an actual modbus server it crashed with the above error.

Archie,

Thanks for updating the meter2 control on version t.

But now Meter2.vb crashes on communication fail.

Error msg:

Code: [Select]

{"Conversion from string "Com Error -999.No Values Returne" to type 'Double' is not valid."}
So as a quick fix I'm checking if the value is numeric before doing the scaling. Looks like the problem is no more.

But I'm sure you will addressed this in a more elegant manner.

Thanks,

I wanted to use it with TextChange event of a Textbox.

Code: [Select]

Private Sub tbAlm_TextChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles tbAlm.TextChanged
        ModbusTCPCom1.Write(40016, 100)
    End Sub
The above error pops, when I hit F5 to start the app.

When I do it the same with a button click event, everything works.

Thanks

Hi everybody,

Check the below picture. I have a guage control, a meter control & a meter2 control on the latest version of AdvancedHMI.
The meter & guage control works with no issues. But the meter2 controls is off!!
The value displayed in the PLCAddressText does not match with the PLCAddressValue.
My ValueScaleFactor is 1 for all meters.
Any ideas??

Open Discussion / EthernetIPforCLXCom with Toshiba Drive

« on: November 03, 2015, 02:06:42 PM »

I could not find anything related to what I'm looking for so I started a new thread.

I'm trying to communicate with a Toshiba motor drive through EthernetIP.
Have anyone done this with EthernetIPforCLXCom?

Currently I have a ControlLogix communicating with this drive. Look at the picture for the settings.
I can read/write to the ControlLogix with Advanced HMI.
But how does AdvancedHMI drivers talk to the Drive directly (without the ControlLogix).
