Hello,
I have a Yokogawa CENTUM VP system and a controllogix L61 that i inherited at work and there's an ALE111 card in the yokogawa and existing tags, I do not know, however, how to add input and output tags to the systems.
Any help would be appreciated on this!
Thanks!
Ok I pulled off night vision goggles from from a poor fitting army helmet, to put on my fitting helmet. But it doesn't fit, says it's bigger than the parent pocket, even though when I compare the 2 they are the same except for the poor fit.
There is nothing in the pocket of the fitting helmet or poor fitting helmet
I spawned a couple of other army helmets both poor fitting and fitting, it's a crapshoot if the NV goggles fit.
Is this a bug?
So every message in the game window itself is cut off, like saving is sav, when I do a command and it asks for direction, I get 4, maybe 5 characters, that's it.
I removed the padding from the text boxes to see if that helped but no. Is there a way to get my messages back?
Hey, does anyone else have an issue where I turn on my fridge and freezer in my house and when I get back, they're off? I have more than enough power (200,000) and 5 solar arrays. I'm not running out of electricity. What is going on?
I can't see new posts here and I can't see comments. What is going on?
Was I left out of something?
Thanks
Hello, I have an ABB ACS310 that right now has an Auto/Manual switch to select speed reference. I want to set it so it's at 60hz at all times no matter what the A/M switch does. It does have start/stop buttons on the cabinet it's in and I want to keep using them.
I'm familiar with AB Powerflexes, but have never touched an ABB Drive before.
Thanks,
Hello, I've been brain farting on a PID loop. It should be simple. I am controlling for pressure with a range of -1 to 1 PSI using an 4-20 mA valve.
It is a 1756-L61 running V20.04
The pressure is in a bag that is being filled. when the pressure is above 0 PSI powder blows the wrong way, which I don't want. I don't want it to go down to -1 PSI because it'll rip the bag off the hangers. The operators usually want it to run at -0.2 to -0.1 PSI
So would I set the range of my PID to -1 to 0 psi?
I am going to be tuning a loop next week and came across the following setup. My experience tells me I don't need the timer and that it will mess up the loop, since the timer and the loop update are both set to 0.1sec. This is in a 1756-L61 V17.
I have a setup of 5 car batteries and one solar panel in a junkyard, before I set it up, FPS was great, but afterward, it takes much much longer to pass time. Is there anyway to streamline so I can minimize the FPS hit?
How do you deaggro an Exodii walker that's been attacked by zombies and now is mad at you?
This isn't any sort of emergency, I trying to learn on my own how to do... things with the DCS. We have a live system and a test system in the plant I'm at. What I'm trying to do is, well make up a tag, an analog value tag to be exact.
Like in AB I can make a DINT, give it a name, then throw a number in there without adding fake analog IO. I'm trying to do the same with Centum. I figured out how to do switches and even redefine them as necessary, but am struggling with the analogs. I want to be able to feed it into calc blocks, PIDs, and the like.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Hello,
I've recently started at a chemical plant that has a Yokogawa Centum VP DCS system. I can get my head around most of it, but I'm trying to understand what language SEBOL is closest too so I can figure out how some previous work is done and also be able to make new SEBOL routines.
I know this is the PLC subreddit, but I can't find a DCS subreddit.
Thanks
What happened to the text? Why is it pixelated now? As of a week ago it use to look clean, but now it's all jagged when I updated. Is there anyway to get my text nice looking again?
Thanks
I'm trying to find a novel with the description above, I read it on my kindle long ago and am having a heck of a time trying to remember the name of the novel
