TXT from the screen folder (Project Folder > screen). To copy a screen from another program, open up the project file, then grab the desired. Indusoft Tip 4: Copy from Another Program Note: The new screen will not automatically open make sure to open the new screen to edit it. Rename the folder, and then you will have an additional identical screen under the new name. If you want to copy a screen, select the screen, then select File > Save As. All the tags that are related to the Coil Results (that will be subsequently written to an SQL database) have been added to this sheet. In the picture above, note that there is a driver sheet called Coil Results. If you have a lot of tags in a regular driver sheet, you may run into issues with certain tags being sent before being updated. While this will not change the speed of the tags being read, it will make sure that the block of tags updates sequentially.įor example, if you are writing to a SQL database, it’s important to make sure all relevant tags are updated before you trigger the send.
Having trouble getting your tags to update together? Try adding another driver sheet. If you are using symbolic tags, the tag must exist in the PLC or Indusoft will not work properly.įor example, in the above picture, if the tag “” did not exist in the PLC, Indusoft would have a communication error and would not display the value of any tags.
Make sure that your driver sheet I/O addresses refer to something in the PLC. Below, I’ve outlined a few tips and tricks that I’ve used to accelerate Indusoft development. At DMC, we’ve used Indusoft with several PLC platforms, including Beckhoff, Omron, and Mitsubishi. Indusoft is an HMI/SCADA platform that can be used with a variety of different PLCs.
