A register address in EasyBuilder Pro refers to a specific memory location used to store and manage data within a system. A register is a specific storage location, typically in memory or a device, used…
In EasyBuilder Pro, a WORD refers to the size of the data type configured for the system. This is the standard size used to store data in registers and memory locations within the system. Our…
When the HMI encounters software errors such as black screen, crash, and serverdisconnected…etc., the HMI information can be collected as diagnostic reportsand sent to Maple Systems for further analysis. Diagnostic Tool is supported in EasyBuilder…
After upgrading from EZwarePlus to EBPro you may have experienced an issue were a project using this device driver worked in the former software but not in the latter. Usually, the problem happens when the…
The Online Simulator in EBPro has a built-in limit of 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, the Online Simulator will stop communicating with the PLC and the “Device no response” message will pop up. Simply close…
If communications between the HMI and PLC are interrupted, a “PLC No Response” error message will appear on the HMI. Possible reasons for this message could be that the communication cable may be wired incorrectly,…
If communication to one PLC is lost, the HMI has the ability to look for, find, and establish communications with another PLC. To do this, the PLCs on the network must all use the same…
Yes, to do this the PLCs on the network must all use the same protocol. When setup, the HMI project will automatically search for another PLC when communication is lost from a PLC that had…
HMIs use a number of Ethernet/TCP ports when doing various tasks. Many of the features use Ethernet communication, often with a specified port. TN5127 has a list of the TCP ports used for various features:…
The IP address for the HMI is configured in the System Settings window in the HMI. When you first receive your HMI, it is running the demo project for that particular model. You will see…
Yes. To communicate between a High Performance HMI and a Standard HMI, there are a couple extra steps to take. Refer to Tech Note 5033, “Multiple HMIs connecting to one PLC” for step by step…
