Feature Request / Re: Version Labels for both AdvancedHMI Build and Current publish revision
« on: August 01, 2022, 03:13:32 PM »
As an alternative , I place a small AHMI logo at hte bottom left of the main screen with the AHMI Website address below and a label above with the date that the last change was made . I also change the properties of the mani form title to the AHMI version for example : - AHMI_V399x Turret lathe V4.7

Support Questions / Re: Map indirect addressed tag in my VB Solution
« on: April 25, 2022, 03:14:52 PM »
If you have an array that you are addressing there are 2 ways . 1st in the plc copy the result of the indirect address to a new tag and send that . 2nd copy the array to the hmi using the data subscriber and also the index and use VB to get the indirect tag . can't say more without plc type and more detail on what you want to achieve .

Support Questions / Re: Using the control messagelistbybit as an alarm display.
« on: January 29, 2022, 03:49:24 PM »
An alternative is to use the message list by values . I use mainly allen bradley 5000 and it has a useFul instruction - FBC . ( File Bit Compare ) . The biggest alarm array Iv'e programmed had 203 alarms and used an array of 8 32 bit words. Using a timer when an alarm is found , the display will cycle through any active alarms in the array , stopping for the timer setting at each alarm .

Support Questions / Re: Version 3.99 and VB 2010
« on: February 13, 2018, 06:12:29 PM »
If it helps , I am using AHMI v 3.99r with 2010 sp1 . As Godra said , non - appearing drivers was a problem suspected to be in studio . Putting any driver from the toolbox onto your form and then building has always populated the rest of the drivers into the toolbox for me . You can then insert the driver you want and delete the 1st .
Archie , for me I still have not figured out how to deploy a small enough version of VB offline . The target machine has no internet connection , nor will it for security reasons .

Hi Archie ,
Do you have any idea where I can download an iso image or buy a cd of this program . Where I use AHMI there is no reliable internet connection ( slow and drops occasionally ) for large downloads .

Hi kay_gsr13 ,
Would you be able to post the part of your PLC program with this timer in it and the logic that loads it to the array - I'm just wondering - since you mentioned the timer is in an array - whether converting to real may be causing the problem ?
If you are not able to post the code , perhaps you could add a rung and check that the conversion to a new real gives the value you are expecting . ( if the timer is in an array , then it takes 3 words )

Hi Archie ,
If the problem with missing drivers is with VB2015 , are you using some code from 2015 to load the drivers to the toolbox ? At present I'm still using VB2010 and first noticed the problem with V399c using VB2010 .

Support Questions / Numbering Screens
« on: April 07, 2016, 03:13:57 PM »
I'm missing something . Is there a way of numbering screens so that the number can be sent to the PLC and also the PLC can call a screen by number ?
