PLC Upgrade from 1769 to 5069... Card Mapping Error

[abarajas]

Hi everyone, Kind of new at this, so we recently upgraded our 1769-l32e to the newer 5069-L320erm, i converted the file over and Verify the Controller and i got "Error: Rung 0, CPS, Operand 0: Invalid member specifier.". Not sure on how to proceed with getting the new PLC to work.
5069
1769


Any help would be appreciated

It looks like the newer model doesn't have an equivalent "Data" tag. It looks like you would need to map each bit to the proper bit at your destination. Something like this, but going up to bit 15

The issue is as OG describes; where in the 1769 module you had a single INT tag 'Data' containing the inputs from all channels, in the equivalent 5069 module each input is its own channel each with a separate BOOL for data.

I'm not aware of a way to map all the inputs in a single instruction the way you could previously, short of making your own AOI .

Thanks Operaghost/plvlce, i will try mapping them out individually and test the system out...

Leave it to Rockwell to make things going forward more damn difficult...

yeah, screw them new features, we don't need them anyways.

They have a AOI or subroutine to convert the 5069 tags to normal tags, should be on their website some where.

alan_505 I will take a look.

I hope its not as bad as the SLC500 logic converter....
