Please forgive me if I use the wrong vocabulary on this
I am trying to program a panelview 1250 using RSview ME, which will hook up to a PLC5 device.
Do you guys know the tag notation to have it look at .. say three bits out of a 16-bit word? Say I want to look at N78:16/3, 16/4, and 16/5.
How would I type this in to the direct tag so that it only looks at those three bits? So far the expression looks something like this:
{::[my_plc5]N78:16/3} and I tried looking at the "LSB" (least significant bit). I don't think it's working as intended though.
2) The second application would be the same as above, only that I'm trying to pull a whole number (integer?) out of 3 bits. I assume I'd do the same thing as above but have the tag look at "value" instead of "LSB"
