RE: STEP 7 V5.5 says object not found with 256:31 and I cannot find that number anywhere

Good one to write on the cabinet door. Nobody ever remembers the 256 family exists.

RE: New FactoryTalk View ME app runs on the laptop, no live values on the PanelView Plus

Sounds like the tag types. In WinCC that error usually means the connection is there but the addresses behind it don't match what the controller has. ...

RE: PIDE output stuck at 100 percent for minutes after steam came back

CVHLimit to 60% and pulled the LIM. Then a rung: no steam pressure for 30 seconds puts the loop in Manual with CV at 20%, steam back for 60 seconds pu...

RE: MicroLogix 1400 CTU counts two or three per bag from a photoeye, count 15 percent high

Done. Tilted the eye down a bit and put the 20ms TON in front of C5:0 with the DN bit. Two shifts now and the count's within 1 or 2 of the tally each ...

Error is: "The interface of the called block 'FB_Labeller' does not match the call in 'FC_Main', network 3." Close to that. I added a new input pin o...
