DL205 directsoft5 C-More EA7-S6C

[wildcatherder]

Although I have programmed in a variety of higher level languages and have gone through several PLC ladder-logic tutorials, I have found nothing about interaction between the DL205 (using a D2-250-1 CPU) and the C-More EA7-S6C touch panel. The Touch Panel manual is hardware and self-programming oriented. The DirectSoft manual seems to leave external interface panels as "an exercise for the reader".

I understand that each object on the screen has a memory address and for simple on/off inputs and outputs that is clear enough. What I need is an example of the ladder-logic - just a screen capture would be great (because few people are still using DirectSoft5) showing how to read and write Numeric Inputs and Outputs from/to the Touch Panel.

I have searched the AutomationDirect and HostEngineering forums with no joy.

Any assistance would be appreciated.
