I was introduced to Intellution Fix32 scada software at one of my customers today. They have no support from the programmer that built this setup and they are looking for someone to add a few things to the one HMI screen. According to web searches and other threads on this forum, this software appears to be some old stuff.

Does any one know where I can get a manual for navigating this or a demo version of this? Any help or information or support would be much appreciated. Thanks!
 
FIX32 is a really old package from Intellution; became iFIX when GE bought out Intellution. The software came out in the 80s or 90s. We have it on a pair of NT4 machines, controlling some equally old Siemens TI505 PLC hardware. I managed to find a few manuals that my predecessor stashed away, but have found nothing on line. The software is very clumsy to use, and does not communicate very well (issue a command and wait up to 5 minutes to see feedback!). There is actually a little information available in the Help menus. If you open the FIX Draw application and open one of the existing screens, you may be able to see the tag structure that you need. Complexity may depend on which hardware you are talking to.

Your mission, Mr. Phelps, should you decide to accept it... :unsure:
 
here is an old thread that may be helpful...

Also, if you have access to the installation disks, there are some good helpful things on them.

This thread does provide some very helpful information. I would still like if someone has a .pdf manual of this software that they could email me or know where I can download it. I hestitate to dive into making changes on the program when I barely know the softare very well and their whole system depends on it.
