Hello, I have an application where I am using Devicenet with a AB Micrologix 1500 PLC along with a C-more HMI connected to this PLC on one of the COMM ports using AB DF1 full duplex(micrologix). When creating tags in the C-more programming software its limited to 127 bits. However in the case of my Devicenet card which is in slot 1, it has the first 0 - 65 words allocated for its housekeeping then at word 66 it begins alocating to the mappable inputs. Therefore to assign a tag to the first input on my devicenet I have to enter "I:1/1056 " but this does not seem to be possible in C-more programming software. Any thoughts?

I think you'll need to first move them into an integer file, then have C-more read them from there. Since discretes can be bits of words then you should be able to move/copy them as words, then address them from C-more as bits.
