Support Questions / Re: Issue with Advanced HIM and Linux mint
« on: December 04, 2024, 01:59:26 PM »
I took the "nope" as Linux is running on bare metal, not in a VM. I suppose that might be assuming a lot

LOL! It might be, but I want that turkey.
Edit: I don't want it, I just wanted to see if it got cut off.

Support Questions / Re: AB MicroLogix 1400 Tag Addresses Not Working
« on: November 05, 2024, 06:32:20 PM »
Can you share a screenshot of your digital display properties? It's been a minute since I've connected to a SLC, but the tag syntax should be something like C5:0/ACC or maybe C5:0.ACC

Support Questions / Re: Single dynamic Form for multiple (mostly) identical machines
« on: August 02, 2024, 08:34:07 PM »Never mind!
I figured it out while fiddling with it throughout the day. It isn't... elegant. But it works and doesn't throw any runtime errors. And that's good enough for me, for the time being.
I used some case switching and went with a Public Sub NewForm.Update_Form() and Me.Update_Form() route, where many OnClicked events set the called_value then call the method. I'll give sanitizing the code a go tomorrow at work and post here.
Nice! While you might not consider your solution elegant, chrome don't get ya home!

Application Showcase / That time I ran AdvancedHMI on a PanelView Plus
« on: June 19, 2024, 02:05:07 PM »
The early versions of AdvancedHMI used the compact version of the .NET framework. This means that it should run on Windows CE. Back in 2013 I thought, maybe it would run on a PanelView Plus? So I tried it, because, why not? I found my picture of it, sorry for the poor quality.

Support Questions / Re: Reading all PLC Tags (not data but literal string values for tag names)

You can probably only do this with AB, not sure about Omron. See if this post helps:

Support Questions / Re: Only reading 1 array register
« on: May 07, 2024, 10:06:57 AM »
Thanks for the update FlippinBits.
This is a very interesting issue. There have been issues in v32+ where some corruption of the tag database occurs. The result ends up being you cannot upload the program from the controller. Only recourse is to download. We've seen this a couple of times, luckily for us, it's just machines we are building, not in production environment.
Seems like a similar issue. Curious, are these tags UDT members? I think Rockwell has opened up some UDT editing (renaming maybe?) online, there are technotes about corruption happening in when doing this in some versions. What firmware version are you using?

That's a good idea, I hadn't thought about doing it that way.

Open Discussion / Where is admin posts

What's up with all these posts like:
Seems highly likely the people are bots or spammers but they don't seem to be posting anything else. Should I just delete them? Seems like Archie has been. Not sure what the angle is. The recent one joined March 17th, made the first post over night. Odd.

Start with a fresh copy of AdvancedHMI, go to Build > Build Solution. Open MainForm.vb, in the very top of the Toolbox, you'll see AdvancedHMI Components. Drag/drop FormChangeButton onto the main form. In the properties (far right side of visual studio), find the property FormToOpen, select Page2. Run the application and press the button

I did bother contributing to your pylogix project since it's open sourced and people can find it useful.
I guess I missed those threads and never made the connection. Thanks for the contributions!

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.
Wat!? You're GitHubDragonFly? I did not know that.
