Issues with on click Tag Connection

[shuntley]

Hello I'm doing programming for a T21C connected to a RSLogix5K L61 via ethernet.

I'm having two issues currently first I have a bool that I wish to toggle with a button on click toggle. I have created the button and when I change the state in the PLC the button does change its state, but when i try to press the button on the LOI it does nothing. The annoying thing is it was working yesterday.


I also have an issue with Float tags displaying "tag not found" when I have added new floats to the panel. The original floats I added at the start are still working. I used the same method to add the new floats and visually they look the same in the tags config file.

I hope this is an issue which is easily resolved.

Thanks for the help.

Are you using the Ethernet ControlLogix driver? If so, there is an update you should install and re-test.
https://beislc.sharefile.com/d/s4a43fd580f447f3b

To install
1. Unzip the contents of the .zip file.
2. If using Windows 7, start iX Developer selecting the option "Run as Administrator".
3. Start a new workspace or open an existing.
4. Select "Update Drivers From File"
5. After installation, restart selecting the option "Run as Administrator" again if using Windows 7.

Best Regards,

I have updated the drivers, but the issue remains.

Here is an example of the tag.
This tag comes up as No Tag FQIT_1001_C in IX Panel
Fqit_1001_C, Float, readwrite, 0, 1, float, FQIT_1001_C

This tag however works fine:
FQIT_1001, Float, Readwrite, 0, 1, Float, Fqit_1001

Both tags are in the same place in the PLC except the FQIT_1001 tag is an alias to an I/O Point.

I'm currently using an L61 running V19.5 of RSLogix5k.

Also, my button is still not working for the bool MANUAL_MODE_LOI the IX Panel sees this tag, but when i press the button it does not toggle.

Please send a copy of your project files and we will see if we can find anything.

From the work-space you sent,
Fqit_1001_C, Float, readwrite, 0, 1, float, FQIT_1001_C
and
FQIT_1001, Float, Readwrite, 0, 1, Float, Fqit_1001

are being used on two totally different screens.

MANUAL_MODE_LOI is being used in lots of different places.

I've sent you a simple application you can test with to verify if you can read/write these data addresses.
