Excellent. Couldnt figure out how to add a RSLinx server and this solved it for me. Thank you

@@d3adlyBuzz Thanks

Thanks for the video Mr.Shane.

[@ShaneWelcher]

Glad to help

[@grakeshrao2319]

Mr. Shane, Can you please make a video on how to lock a numeric input in the factory talk view studio.

[@mohamedel-shamy1945]

impressive as always

[@ShaneWelcher]

Thank you

[@emmanuelsanchez-w1z]

Do you a videos for Studio 5000 Logix Designer Level 1 ControlLogix Fundamentals and troubleshooting

[@ShaneWelcher]

Yes, use the search tab on this channel and type in what you are looking for. Or visit: www.allen-bradley-plc-training.com/p/plc-programming

Good video sir!

[@ShaneWelcher]

Thank you

[@shaun7156]

Could you do one for Machine Edition?

[@ShaneWelcher]

@@shaun7156 I have videos on Machine Edition, go to the search tab of this channel and type in the word "Machine Edition" or "ME"

I used around 2700 tag but in SCADA FT view it's lagging heavily during running condition.. please give some reason behind this happens

[@ShaneWelcher]

First, I would look at my network speed & duplex to make sure you are getting the throughput to the computers. Meaning, 100/Full or Auto/Auto for example. Next, I would verify how your system is set up. Is it Thin client? Is it laptops? How many HMI servers ? You should have a HMI arch to easily see your layout. Without knowing this information, it would be hard for anyone to answer. I would think the lag isn't FactoryTalk view

If am not online with PLC controller yet and I am writing my Factory talk program offline, how would I call my PLC tags which are supposed to work with this program? thx

[@ShaneWelcher]

Just add the PLC name to the shortcut and add the PLC shortcut name to the tag you want to use. Just verify them when you get to the testing stage This video might better help answer that question: Re-Tagging a FactoryTalk Video Studio HMI Application for PLC Trainer | PlantPAX Simulation Code kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIOkeJanltV8bq8

[@ShaneWelcher]

I will make you a video describing this process directly once I have time

while adding new HMI server im facing issue. how to resolve

[@ShaneWelcher]

Please watch this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pJe7o3mjpL6gaqcsi=O_Tc6-VnEjBT8GNJ Or search my channel by keyword to see how to use HMI servers.

Is there a way to add an Acknowledge button which can only pop up on the screen during a certain step (eg step 14)? I was trying to do that but in the tags section, i couldn't find anything which i can select for the step number tag.

[@ShaneWelcher]

How does your question relate to the video you are commenting on? Please only ask questions about the video because it creates confusion and is hard to answer. Not sure what you are talking about when you refer to steps

[@xubairahmed951]

@@ShaneWelcher what I was trying to say is, i added a momentary push button, but I wanted that button to be visible when the machine sequence is on step 14, for that button to be only visible when the machine sequence is on step 14, i couldn't find the tag for it under the tags section.

[@ShaneWelcher]

@@xubairahmed951 so use animation on that button to only appear when in that step. Here is one video showing animation kzbin.info/www/bejne/sKLSlamBgMqLfM0si=LH5xFMQfnAYlY72M You can also use the search tab on my channel and type in the word "animation" to find all of the videos for this

@@ShaneWelcher thank you 👍 will check that out

[@Hassanki-g2k]

Can I use a PC as an HMI? Can I also use the same applicator to toggle bits on multiple PLCs?

[@ShaneWelcher]

I'm using a laptop as an HMI so not sure why you have this question as my video is just about what you are asking

[@Hassanki-g2k]

@@ShaneWelcher Poorly worded question. I was working along as I was watching this video. Is it possible to lock the HMI outside of the factoryview environment so that all techs can access the pushbuttons on one central PC and not have availability and option to edit those buttons

[@caleb7799]

Well, you said used the term "link" in so many places I've lost track of what was going on. Just being honest. Maybe some sort of outline in the beginning would help. Thanks.

[@ShaneWelcher]

This was just a simple example of how to make a logic tag to communicate to a to FactoryTalk Site Edition HMI. What in the video confused you?
