I really wish RA would allow elements of User Defined Data Types to alias other Tags.
Does anyone know of a better work around than assigning them one by one? I normally use a Structured Text sub for the assignments but that actually defeats one of the main advantages of 5k by putting IO updates back into the scan and dependent (temporally anyway) on the size and complexity of the program.
Since I/O updates are independent of program scan it seem counterproductive to use program based assignments, but I don't know any other way of assigning vfd[9].enable to Local:O:12.Data.0 or vfd[3].speed to InfeedConveyor:O.FreqCommand
I love the ability to create UDT's to organize data, but I hate that I have to use program based assignments. Anyone know a better way?
