I am trying to use the HI WS100 Configuration software through RSLinx over DataHiway+ (DH-Plus). After entering the correct information on the Comm. Setup screen, when I go to any other screen the software starts loading (by the bar graph at the bottom of the screens). The software then locks up, the bar graph flickers and I have to use task manager to shut it down. Does the HI WS100 software work on DH+?
I have a controller set up in my office but no load cells and I would like to test my PLC programming. Can I use a trim pot to simulate the load cells? If so, how can this be done?
I am using two HI 3030's, one with four channels, one with two. I have one ControlNet card in the 4 channel configuration and I am only going to read and send the gross weight and net weight to the ControLogix. In the dual channel unit I need to map these parameters and transfer them through a HardyLink (Ethernet) network to the four channel unit with the ControlNet card. How do I map weight data from one unit to another unit that has the ControlNet interface?
