I am having issues writing to micrologix 1100 from RSView 32
I am communicating through ETHERNET/IP and can see the plc data and can do a momentary action on a bit"b3/0" but can not toggle the bit or write to and data file "t4:0.pre, N7:0".I am programming in RSLogix 500 and can read, write, and program with no problem. I heard that having logix on line during view control can cause a conflict and have shut down logix for the tests. I don't get any errors when using the numeric input control in veiw when looking at the log file.
Here is the setup.
RSVIEW32 version 7.2, RSlinx version 2.500.20
Micrologix 1100 1763-LBWA frm 5.0 rev B Ser B
Linx is setup with a topic pointing to the processor and using maximum packets for ethernet is unchecked per allen bradler due to exceeding the packet limitation of the micro 1100.
View is setup where the node is RSlinx OPC Server and is using the inprocess check box. As I stated If I setup a button to toggle bit B3/0 it does not change, If I use a momentary on when pressed it functions as it should. Numeric input wont work at all. I can however change the numeric input using the webserver screen function through explorer.
I have disables all firewalls and vvirus checkers and am hooked to the plc through a wireless router, and have also hooked up with a crossover cable.
I have a call in to AB but they have not been able to help so far. I also have purchased a second micro for another project and am going to see if it responds the same way.
I am running out of time for this project and the customer in getting worried.
