problems writing to BOOLs in So Machine

[ganutenator]

So Machine v4.3, vijeo designer 6.2.
plc: TM251MESE
hmi: magelis the one that mounts like a switch.

I can read/write ints and reals no problem.

I can read bools to the hmi no problem.

I can't get the hmi to write to the bools.

ex: I address the bool in the hmi %MW0.0 w/ read/write attributes, and the bool in the plc %MX0.0 to no avail. I'm assuming I'm either addressing the bool incorrectly or I have to do something in the plc to make the global bool variable writable.

Bools and words share same memory on somachine. if you have %MX0.0 then you can't use %MW0 because them overlap.

 

[ganutenator]

yes, I am aware of that. should I address the %MX0.0 differently in the hmi?

 

[ganutenator]

weird anomaly, my vijeo project previously had outputs assigned to %m0 - %m31. They worked perfectly w/ reading the outputs of the m251. weird.
