Technical support / Nano problems with MDS100-BW
« on: December 10, 2010, 07:42:02 PM »
I am trying to attach a MDS100-BW lcd screen to RS485 port on the Nano plc and after looking at the documentation I used print #3 command in my dcust function script and as I found out this did not display my scripts so after contacting the support they told me Nano uses Print#1 to display the data so I changed to this
I now have a different problem as some how this is changing the communication settings and once loaded I cannot access the plc at all through the RS 485 or ethernet
To solve this I set Jumper J4 on the PLC which allows the communication but halts the PLC and reloaded the program with out the LCD function and all is good again with full communication re established I would like to know if there is any solve for this as I would like to use the LCD and have communication with the PLC
Scipt sample
PRINT #1"?P0101"
PRINT #1"DATE: = "+str$(date[3])+"/"+str$(date[2]+"/"+str$(date[3])
