Hey guys,
I have a Xycom connected to a GE 90/30 PLC that is used for a Coal Mill Fire Protection (KVB) system.
Monday I noticed the screen was unstable and notified supervisor that CRT which has been running continuosly since installation in 98 was possibly failing.
Today I checked again and the screen was worse, so stupid me decided to power down and try to conserve life until we had a replacement plan.
Now the bugger will not power up. Just a faint chirp, chirp from the inside.
I know we have "softsend" software for the Xycom but noone here has ever worked on it. Same as the GE plc.
I am familiar with Modicon PLCs and Panelmate HMIs only unfortunately.
I really don't have a specific question right now but I am sure to be going to try to install a panelmate if I can get it to talk to the GE and find or download the Xycom configuration.
