Hi,
I am studying in mechanical engineering and i would like to do the following....
I have couple of PLCs (DL205) with ECOM 10BASE-T boards on the network. Here is the summary of what i want the Java program to be able to do...
1- PC writes (sets) Cxxxx to 1 every loop on every online PLC.
2- PC reads every PLC value Cyyyy (which is the same value for every PLC).
3-a) if PC reads Cyyyy = 0 , PC does nothing
3-b) if PC reads Cyyyy = 1 , PC reads Vzzzzzz.
At that point , Vzzz will be a recipe name, example : Broadway .
The PC now has to look in a certain folder for a txt file called Broadway. In that txt file, there will be a list of "C" and "V" addresses with values to upload to the PLC memory. The PC will have to write all theses values to the PLC memory. Once again, all via ECOM.
I am not asking for anyone to do everything and sent it to me, i also doubt anyone would... but i want to learn how to do this. I am relatively good with PLC programming and scripts, but i have no clue regarding Java.
Thanks for your time and i would really appreciate any of your help!
