Hi all!
I've got a quick question about exporting data from a PLC program that I have. The processor is a Micrologix 1400, and I'm using RSLinx Classic Lite V2.57. I've done some searching on here, and serveral posts have said that you can't use the lite version to do DDE/OPC. However, my version has that option as drop down box. Will it work?
The second part is this: The machine is a pressure tester for a product, and I've got a specific value (the actual pressure that the product bursts at) that I want to export into an excel file after every cycle. I also want to export the date, time, and part number from files that are stored in the PLC/HMI. I want each cycle to fill in a data table on excel for a range, ie A,B,C,D 1 through 50. Is this possible to do with DDE?
Thanks very much for your time.
