Hi,
I am looking for some help into programming a system involving basic module. The system is with SLC 5/05. I have to send info. of mm/dd/yy/sl# of the part to a part marker using RS232. I have not done such application before. I a have Basic module available to me and was successful in communicating to this on hyperterminal and was able to run a program by refering to the basic program example given AB in the doccumentation.
I need to know how I could generate a string in SLC and pass it Basic module and from there to the Partmark in ASCII.
The ASCII string will have 10 char. in total ie. ddmmyysl# (sl# is 4 chars.)
I have generated all the data in the PLC which is in decimal. I have not been able to string(ASCII) this data together and send it to Basic module. Are there any examples available?
Any help with this is appreciated.
Thanks.
Kiran
