Hi,

Does anybody in here knows about Softscreen a HMI from Xycom product?
I am not familiar with it and I never use it before and now my bos was assign me to changes the HMI for our process from Softscreen to RSView32 that I familiar with it.
The existing our HMI was connecting to PLC5/20 AB.
My question are:

1) In Softsceen s/w, there is a Recipe.
What is it and what function a recipe?
Example a recipe:
Address Value Desc
(PLC0:N9:259,SB) #24 SP
(PLC0:N10:3, SB) #25 P
(PLC0:N10:4, SB) #26 I
(PLC0:N10:5, SB) #27 D
#48 #24 NOCH SP
#49 #25 NOCH P
#50 #26 NOCH D
What is the meaning of " # " ?

2)Conditional expression:
(PLC0:B3/285, SB)==1 && (PLC0:B3/286,SB)
BURN OUT IN PROGRESS (Foreground color: RED, background color: BLACK)

(PLC0:B3/286, SB)==1
BURN OUT COMPLETE (foreground color: GREEN, background color:BLACK)

My question: on conditional expression (PLC0:B3/285, SB)==1 && (PLC0:B3/286,SB), is it B3/286 is same with 0 (zero)?

Any suggest would be appreciated!


Thanks and Regards,

Deer
 
I'm not completely sure...

A recipe is a set of data destined to a process. To change the process the whole recipe is changed.
# 24 is an internal register of the PC where softscreen runs. It's a register 32 fixed-point bits
( PLC0 : N9: 259, SB )-> register of the PLC, Signed Binary
# 24 -->Register of the PC, 32 bits.
SP-> Set Point

( PLC0 : B3: 285, SB ) == 1 && (PLC0 : B3/286, SB) means ( B3: 285 = 1) AND (B3/286 <>0)
( PLC0 : B3: 286, SB ) == 1 means (B3:286 = 1)
The last true expression prevails.
