Diplaying Thermocouple Input Value in Analog Value or Digital Panel

[ed288]

Hello Archie.

I was working on a screen to display temperatures of a furnance, We have about 12 thermocouples connected to 3 different input cards on a SLC500. The problem is that even with different addesses on Analog Value & Digital Panel Components the components with the same input Address but diferent slot ex(I13.0 , I13.1, I13.2, I13.3) show the value of only the first address (I13.0). I tried to change to different address with same result. Also i notice that for the control and driver it doesn matter if i put I13 or I13.0 like if it only reads the first value of the Input.

In order to continue with my project i have to make a workaround to show the temperature. What i did is move all my inputs to Integer Memories and read the values from them. It worked but i have to put more ladders, and you know it would be great if you can tell me how i can read the input values directly.

I attach an example of what my problem is, hoping you can help to solve it.

Best Regards.

You can try this patch to see if it takes care of the problem. It is patch 3 for version 3.99v :

It works like charm !!!! You are the best Archie.

I only need to clean solution before compile the project again.

Thanks.

That patch disables the communication optimization, so if you have a lot of controls on a form, it may run slow. A new patch or version update will be available soon that fixes this.
