Re: Recommended Install Order iX and Visual Studio
I'm not going to claim much knowledge on the topic, but I do know that iX requires VisualStudio 2008. I installed 2013 express and it wouldn't work. I did manage to track down 2008 but then got on to other stuff and never went back and got it working. I wouldn't think that the order would matter but...

Re: Programmatic control of iX T12B Panel LEDs
Okay, thanks for the confirmation. That's a bummer but I suppose one LED is better than none.

Programmatic audit trail item?
Is it possible to programmatically add items to the Audit trail? Globals.AuditTrail.???? I want to log some PLC changes (panel push button) to the HMI audit trail and I thought I could use the value change handler. I know that data loggers are typically used for PLC values but in this case I would r...

Re: Programmatic control of iX T12B Panel LEDs
I appreciate the reply. That was the LED I alluded to in my post. My question was whether or not the other three LEDs could be controlled. Based on the lack of responses I will assume they cannot.
That is disappointing.

Programmatic control of iX T12B Panel LEDs
Hey, Can I control the four LEDs at each corner of the T12B panel through my code? I would really like to flash a couple of them red if there are Alarms. It looks like there is a system tag for the power LED (upper left) but none of the others seem available. I remember playing with them through the...

Re: Modbus configuration issues
So after some additional experimentation I now am able to retrieve the value that I was after. My explanation is frustrating but it seems to be working. The DL06 PLC modbus documentation states that the Octal Address (V10011) should be converted to decimal (4106) and added to 400001. Which gave me 4...

Re: Modbus configuration issues
Thank you for your reply. I think this is the right track but it's not quite right. The address I'm using, 44106, is a decimal address converted from Octal. In the PLC the address is V10011 which converts to 4105 in decimal which gets added to 40001 according to the automation direct documentation w...

Modbus configuration issues
First off, I'm new to most of this: iX, Modbus and PLCs. So any patience is greatly appreciated. Secondly I have poured over the documentation for just about everything related to what I'm doing and am still stuck. I am currently working on my first HMI project for a small hydro site (family owned)....
