We have an AB 1395 drive controlled by a PLC-5/40 via RIO. We are developing a monitoring computer using RSView32. This computer will poll the PLC over a dedicated DH+ link. My problem lies in converting some values in RSView32 from an integer (16 bit) to a binary string. Several drive status or fault parameters are loaded into some words and passed to the PLC. When these are passed to the RSView32 application they are passed as decimal values. I need to break out the bits that composed these decimal numbers in the RSView32 application. I suppose I could pass them bitwise from the PLC, but I am concerned with the network capacity this might consume. I welcome any thoughts about this.
Thank you,
