AdvancedHMI Programming Question

I have been developing an HMI application using the free AdvancedHMI application, VB.NET Express, and a MicroLogix 1200. I cannot get the ReadAny function to pull in any data from the PLC. The WriteData function works fine. I'm not sure if I am doing something wrong, or if the way I am using the function will not work. Here is my code:

Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
Label5.Text = DF1Comm1.ReadAny("N7:0")
End Sub

I am trying to pull data in from a standard button click event into a standard label. Is this possible?

Thanks

Bump

Anyone?

What you are doing appears to be right. Ae you getting any error messages?

No error messages appear. The application continues without a problem, but the actual integer value from the address is not updated. I single stepped (F8) through ever step of your code that reads the integer, everything "appears" to work properly.

Try the BasicLabel to let it automatically poll and see if that returns your value.

Yes, the BasicLabel updates fine.

I have tried several other addresses as well (B3/0 & T4:1.ACC) with no luck.
