Hello gentlemen,
A few days ago I was tasked with converting an old panelview 1400e to a panelview plus 7 application.
Everything went well except for the string displays.
The ASCII displays in the old PV point to a set of FLOAT addresses in the PLC, and they in fact display things like recipe names, etc.
Pointing to the same addresses from the newly developed PVP7 just displays the number stored in that address. Is there an easy way to fix or work around this?
Here's an example of the data that I have in the PLC:
F8[56] = 1.46696165e-019
F8[57] = 13.570386
F8[58] = 1.45800261e-010
F8[59] = 1.35701254e-019
F8[60] = 1.35631564e-019
The old PV displays something like: "02 - MAYO / 50"
Let me know if this info is enough.
