Convert code Fx1n to QnCpu .Help needed

[arthurb4x]

Hello , I dont have much experience in PLC coding but need to remove an old Fx1N with a QCPU . The program has several STL statements as State relays and dont know how to convert them for the new QCPU . I did export the old program as cvs and then imported it to a new project but I got many yellow code ( Errors  I assume ).  So far I managed to find the corresponding  Special registers needed M8002 to SM402 and for   [ ZRST M3 M200 ] used the [FMOV K0 K1M3 K200] but I am stuck at [ZRST S0 S100] asit gives me error plus it gives me yellow on each line there is a S device plus there are many STL that I dont know the equivalent of in QCPU .

Help and guidance is needed,

Thank you in advance 

Arthur

PS. Please forgive me for my bad English as is not my first language .

Attached is the full program in GXWorks2 1.91V

You are not going to be able to convert the stl to a Q

Or in fact many instructions.

 

Stl in the fx is a set of conditional steps where only the active step is scanned.

 

You would be better with an fx3 or fx5....Or it's a rewrite.

Thank you Ron 

So how are "sets of conditional steps where only the active step is scanned"  expressed in Q ?

[Ron_S]

In short, they aren't.

The Q doesn't have that function.

In the fx, individual steps are defined by a line -----------------[ STL S20] etc

(program for s20 here)

STL S30 and so on

If stl s30 is active, none of the other steps are scanned

The system Q supports SFC that 's why it's not needed.

 

[arthurb4x]

So the only way is to rewrite it based on SFC , If I understand correctly . I find the manual for SFC programming https://dl.mitsubishielectric.com/dl/fa/document/manual/plc/sh080041/sh080041x.pdf very intimidating for a noob like myself .  Can someone help/guide me thru this process of converting the program to Q , and maybe some tutorials about mitsubishi SFC .

Thank you in advance,

Arthur

Just read your FX code and make write down the SFC chart on paper.

Than recreate it in SFC. For all the transitions use ----(TRAN) as an output. 

 

[arthurb4x]

What should I use as input for the (TRAN) 

the FX code is just some initial conditions and a section of manual use for the outputs then 5 STL statements and some Error routines on the end . for as I understand it .

That would be the part in front it the ----[SET Sxxx]  in your FX code.

You can also recreate the STL yourself with SET RST instructions i suppose.

What should I do about the [ ZRST S0 S30 ] that cant be converted . It gives me error when I try ..( The Sxx are the STL statements ).I have already started the SFC prog 

[Gambit]

Is that a Reset of the whole SFC ?

If it programmed at the beginning you wouldn't need that. If it is part of the SFC than you can make a R block and use 999 to reset all SFC's

or just define the ones needed to be deactivated 

 

[arthurb4x]

I am finding it very hard to implement TRAN . Can I just remove them altogether ?

QCPU_test_1.gxw

Since S0 was taken I had to rename them 

S0 is now S1

S1 ----> S2

S10 --->S3

S11 ---->S5

S20 ---->S4

What is the problem with TRAN (transistion)

Edited April 14, 2020 by Gambit

[arthurb4x]

I mean between Block1 and 3 or 2 and 4 ...

No these are the conditions for going to the next Step/Block 

[arthurb4x]

https://gyazo.com/ec37642468fc8f11685c99c5181914a5

 

In this case . Does the block ends at line 336 ? 

Are the conditions M12 and X011 to go to S20 block ?

[Gambit]

yes.

so M12 and X11 should be your condition before TRAN 

You can find this example in the FX programming manual

Yes I assumed that but why I am getting this Error ?

[Gambit]

don''t use the brackets. Juts type TRAN or use the drop down button and remove the -[ ]-

[arthurb4x]

Oh .Thank you Gambit .

It worked .

[arthurb4x]

Why I am getting these errors ?

[Gambit]

You can remove the S4 as you are already in S4.

You are using the SFC so all the -[Set S...]-  and  -| |- S..  at the beginning are no longer needed.

[arthurb4x]

Still the same thing

https://gyazo.com/aa92b4e7c0551c96779caf0870431758

but all other blocks have the S in start and S1 S2 S3 give no errors

Your problem is not in the code but your SF structure

 

[arthurb4x]

Thank you very much Gambit !!

 

Yes , you are correct , this one works .
