I have an older G310 - so stuck with Crimson 2, but although it is not nearly as cool, I'm doing ok with it.
The issue I have is that I have a bunch of timers in my program and I am writing to the V memory locations from the Red Lion.
I know that in the DL250, you have to MOV to write to NV memory, but it doesn't make sense to MOV all of that data every time a timer setting is changed. This is a thermoformer, so the time setting of everything that moves is adjusted regularly.
I must be missing something simple, because I cannot figure out a way to make the most current settings make through a power cycle.
I have tried the Crimson tags as write only - set as retentive, no joy. I tried writing an action on "On Write" to trigger a MOV in the DL250, but I would then be writing each change to the DL250 NV ram, I think there is a limit to how many times that can happen before something bad happens...
It just seems that if the tag is write only, and the storage property is "retentive", that it should be - well.... retentive.... I must be missing the big picture....
