So we have been slowly building the program to operate our robots for a few months now...everything was going great, we started with RSLogix 5000 v 16, then went to 18, then we had to switch to 20 so one of our robots could talk to the system. And then,
RSLogix started running so slow as to be un useable with the PLC in run mode while connected. It's fine in Prog mode, but once it switches to run it goes to pot. I wanted to put another program into the PLC so I could narrow down the possible problems, and now I can't seem to download a very small, very lightweight program into the PLC. Funny thing is, I can download a backup of the program we have been slowly building since day 1...just cant download anything from scratch it seems...I'm wondering WHAT in GOD'S GOOD WORLD would prevent a program from "taking" in the PLC upon download. Do i need to program some AOI, or clean up warnings/errors before a program will "take"? Keeps saying "There is no program loaded into the controller" right after I download a program to the controller.
We are using Win 7 64 Ultimate, core i5, 4 GB RAM, fully updated AND a Win 7 Home 64, celeron 900 Dell, mostly updated, SAME problems with both machines.
ANY help on this would be GREATLY appreciated.
