Hi guys,
I got some tech support while I was at the plane. The problem with connecting was that in the ini file in Launch, I needed to have just com port 7 enabled (=1) and all others disabled (=0). I also removed the semicolon that preceded the "AutoSense=0" line from [comm server] paragraph. We established a communication link and went on line.
I changed the SP1 on rung 2 to SP0. The addressing was correct and I had readings on the Cmore. The EGTs (all four) from the themocouple module were reading about 467 (ie. 46.7 degrees F.). Although it felt colder, I think these are really close. Normal reading will run around 1300 degrees F. What I would like to do is lose the decimal and just have four digits displayed for the EGTs. Seeing the screen come alive really felt good. We are accually getting somewhere.
The readings on the voltage module were way off or zero and now I need to find out how to scale the inputs to read actual values. Is the scaling done within the ladder program?
I plan to start the engine and see how the readings look for all the inputs, write them down and go from there.
Thanks again, Frank
