how to read direct link tags in VBA?

briana banks · Mar 29, 2006

Hi All

Using Rsview SE.

in my plc I've created 2 dim array (12X31) which is some form
of a calendar.

I want to write a small vba function that reads values
from a "start date" to a "stop date"

I know how to read HMI tags but I didnt create any.

How can i read directly from rslinx?

Thanks

Just remember, assuming you array is DINT, you are limited to 121 DINT per request. So it would take 4 request

Hi

well this will force me to make a display with 365 NumericDisplays
This is a little bit awkward solution
It takes almost 15 seconds to load such a display.

Is there another way?

Shouldn't take that long. Post your code if you can

I have found the 1756-EWEB much faster. 1000 tags in about 3 seconds
