lllboredlll Posted July 17, 2013 Report Posted July 17, 2013 How would I find the decimal format of the following addresses. I am setting up a Red Lion HMI with Crimson 3.0 and the requirement is for it to be in decimal format as such: %MW00000 %M1 %M2 %M3 %M4 %M5 %M6 %M7 %M8 %M9 %M10 %MW0.0 %MW0.1 %MW0.2 %MW0.3 %MW0.4 %MW0.5 %MW0.6 %MW0.7 %MW0.8 %MW0.9 %MW0.10 %MW0.11 %MW0.12 %MW0.13 %MW0.14 %MW0.15 %MW1.0 %MW1.2 %MW1.3 %MW1.4 %MW11
JRoss Posted July 18, 2013 Report Posted July 18, 2013 I'm not familiar with the Unity Pro, but it looks to me like all the addresses are bit level. Crimson 3.0 handles bit-level addressing a little differently than you might be used to. You create a flag tag, put the "head" address as the data-source, then select which bit you want to look at in the drop-down box. So for example, for address MW1.4 I think you'd put in MW1 as the data source and bit 4 in the drop down box. For the M addresses (M1, M5, etc.), it depends on how Unity Pro handles data. You might be required to pack the bits into a word somehow. You might try calling Red Lion tech support, they should be able to help you.
