A truly snappy foundation on me since I'm new here....I as of late simply graduated with an AAS in Electrical Automation and Robotic Technology last December, and have around 2 years of involvement in this field. I'm new in the business, so run simple on me with your confused answers
In any case, yesterday I customized a G306 Red Lion HMI for one of our water frameworks here at work. I have the nuts and bolts down, for example, how to import labels, make labels inside of Crimson, roll out things improvement hues in various states, and so on. I made a few on-screen pushbuttons to control a valve and I CANNOT for the life of me get these catches to control the bits that I need them to.
So. Here's the arrangement. The catch is from the center primitives. Under properties and the activity tab, I have these settings:
Operation: Push Button
Catch Type: NO Momentary
Catch Data: Tag
The appointed tag inside of Crimson is HMI_FillValvePB, which is fixing to a project tag inside of the rationale that is a XIC information label/bit that is called Fill_PB, which is additionally controlled by a physical pushbutton at the station. Nothing is going on. In the event that I push the physical pushbutton, my valve turns green and water turns out the channel on my HMI, however in the event that I press the catch on my HMI that I made to do likewise as physical pushbutton, nothing happens.
So then I thought, ok....maybe the Red Lion requirements for the tag to be a worldwide tag inside of the rationale, not a program tag. What's more, perhaps it can't control a tag that is now being controlled by an outside variable or whatever. So I made another worldwide tag (a controller tag, not program tag) and place that in parallel with everything on my rung so that the HMI had it's own particular seperate tag to control that rung with. Re-imported the L5k document, made the tag inside of Crimson, allocated it to that catch, and voila. Nothing happened. Once more. So on the off chance that anyone could please reveal some insight into what the hell I'm doing incorrectly, it would be incredibly refreshing

Much appreciated!
