I have a Moeller MV4 HMI conected to an AB SLC 5/04 PLC. Everything is working fine. I have programmed in a Recipe object so the customer can load different part numbers (5 so far) and the data to go along with each part number. A selection is made from the screen and downloaded to the PLC. This works great I am very happy with the result. Now heres the problem. The recipe object saves the recipe names as string data. This is ok except for the fact that the HMI software does not recognize that the 5/04 can accept string data. I have had to address an integer file. Now what can I do to get this string data that is an integer to be an integer.
