In the Native Ladder programming environment, there are multiple ways to set a bit. One option is to set a bit from the screen using buttons and tasks. data-filename=”image.png” style=”width: 320px;”> Another option is to use logic. You can use the following logic to create the latch: data-filename=”image.png” style=”width: 389px;”> The Device Set and Reset instructions…
Method 1: The GetData and SetData functions can be used to transfer data from one tag to another in a macro. Use GetData to grab the value from one tag and store it in a variable, then use SetData to move the data from the variable into the other tag. Use the Get/Set FN tool…
The issue could be related to the firmware version on the PLC. Currently, Get Tag Info seems to work with firmware v20 and v24 but not anything higher. If this is the case we recommend importing the tags using the *.L5K. Instructions to do this can be found in this Help Topic.
May be related to the DPI setting on the Windows PC. Set it to “Smaller – 100%.”
In order to open a MAPware7000 project, you will need both the .mpl project file and the folder with the same name (which will be in the same directory that the project was saved when it was created).
The Word Lamp Object is used asan indicator to represent the value in a PLC register, or the value in aregister in the HMI local memory (LW). Creates a graphics object to reflect thecurrent state of a multi-state PLC data register. It can display a differentshape or picture depending on the value in the register.…
Setting up communication between a Maple Systems HMI and Maple Systems PLC is easy. We created a step by step tutorial showing you how to set up Modbus RTU and TCP communications.
This is the specific purpose of the cMT Gateway devices, but the HMIs and other cMTs can also perform this action in a different way. In EBPro you can use the Macro feature with the GETDATA() and SETDATA() functions to fetch the data from one tag or address range on one device and write it…
Yes, our Maple Micro PLCs and Maple Modular PLCs use our free PLC programming software (MapleLogic) and can easily integrate with our HMI/cMT products via ethernet or serial cables, using common communication protocols such as MODBUS TCP/IP or MODBUS RTU. This Tutorial will step you through how to Set Up your Maple PLC and Maple…
Yes. Our HMIs can be paired with our PLC products via Modbus RTU or TCP. The Modbus Slave driver is configured in the PLC software, and the Modbus Master driver is configured in HMI software (EBPro). Tags can be exported and imported in both directions.
