AB alarm programming HELP

[kam]

Hi all,
I am using AB ML1200 PLC and Renu 4057 HMI. I want to flash a message, on HMI, which indicates the on going process. And also want to display a message in alarm screen.
Please help to sort out the problem.
You can mail me on [email protected]

Kam,

What is the problem? What message do you wish to display that indicates the "on-going process"? What does the alarm message warn about? What action do you want to take when the alarm shows?

Now back to the beginning: What is the programming problem for your AB MicroLogix 1200 PLC?

Hi Lancie,

Lets go with an ex.

Suppose I want to Flash a message "Down Proxi On" when Down Proximity on at Field. I have set B3:5/0 bit when Proxi on, and Tag this address to Message "Down Proxi On".
Now I want to Flash this message on Renu Make HMI - FP4057.
Can you please tell me how to flash that message?

My internet is too slow here to download the software, but others may do so to help you find the right features in the HMI software.

Hi all,

HMI software is free and available on RENU official website I am using v1.4.

Kam,
The 151 megabyte program is a little too large to download for casual help.

The datasheet says for Alarms:

"Real time and historical Alarms can be defined in FlexiPanels. User-friendly Alarm object can be defined on the display. Alarms can be real time or historical. Keys can be assigned to acknowledge Alarm, view, and scroll."

I am sure that you will be glad to know that these Alarm Objects are user-friendly! Keep plugging on.
