I seem to have run into what should be a simple problem, yet it is driving me crazy.
Machine currently has SLC500 processor with a PV600 panel. I am replacing the SLC500 with a CompactLogix.
Converting the Logix is a simple matter of export/import/clean.
The PV is giving me my problems.
Basically, I have a 1768-L43 processor and a 2711-B6C5 Panelview. They are connected with a straight through serial cable. I cannot seem to create a tag on Panelbuider and in RSLogix500 that both programs will accept.
Of course the Panelbuilder software likes a tag address of B3:0/1, but the Logix5000 will not accept that. If I call the bit Start_Pushbutton - then Logix5000 likes it and panelbuilder doesn't accept it.
What manner of tag terminology is best to use that will work under both platforms?
