Hi Samir13k, Here is an example script you can use to create a socket and send data at an interval: ************************************************************** //-------------------------------------------------------------- // Press F1 to get help about using script. // To access an object that ...

It is possible to dynamically change which tags are associated with objects using aliasing. We have also passed tags dynamically into objects on some event using C#.

Hi d_reibelt, I know it has been quite a while since your post. Depending on how many tags you are using and what poll interval this could be causing your slow response. A 1 second delay is pretty significant. We could look this over with you if needed at well feel free to give us a call or email us...

Hi Subho, This should be easy over serial. The simplest way would be to simply transmit the necessary ASCII commands over an open port. Attached is a serial example that demonstrates how to open a port and send characters. You should be able to massage this code to send whichever commands you need o...

Hi dthomas,
This can be frustrating. An important thing to keep in mind is that when developing for the HMIs (X2,Tx, etc.) you are confined to the .net 3.5 framework. iX allows for interacting with all .net frameworks on your PC because PC targets can potentially support them.

While the modbus driver is a good substitute if you require serial, the ideal driver would be the Ethernet/IP driver under Allen Bradley. There are a few limitations that should be noted in the help file, found by going to Tags-Controllers-Settings-Help in iX, i.e. tags must be globally scoped to be...

Kopitalk, This is a pain free process. First select project settings: http://beijerinc.com/support/ix/forum/download/file.php?mode=view&id=1015&sid=01c71c90d54a5c87cf345a4358cc6d64 Then change your target: http://beijerinc.com/support/ix/forum/download/file.php?mode=view&id=1014&sid=01c71c90d54a5c87...

JPL, 1. When I download the program using a USB pen, will it automatically overwrite the actual running program? If there is an application already running it will ask you to confirm. I would recommend backing up the project that is running to a flash drive first. 2. I don't know with what version o...

PylesT,

You can always contact us here at support with the serial number and we can look that panel up for you. Note: We can only do serial number lookups on the Q-Term panels.

Erik, 1) Is there a limit in writing to "non-volatile" memory? Not really, i imagine you would store this in a 16 or 32 bit tag, that would be your constraint. 2) Is there a standard solution for an "hour counter" (I checked forums and help file but could not find anything). Typically i recommend ke...
