In my productivity 3000 series plc I have a boolean 1D array. I am trying to map this into my Cmore program for my EA9 panel. My device name is DEV001, my tag data type is discrete, my memory type is AR1C, and my address is 000011. All of this matches up perfectly with what is in my PLC program, but I keep getting "ERROR GUI-024: INVALID ADDRESS ". I used the help manual and there is no information on this error. Please help. Thank you:confused:

    If you are manually entering the tag into the C-more software, import the tags instead by importing the tag file created by P3000. It should be located where your P3000 project file is.

    Thank you

    That worked out just fine. The only thing is that I now have everything in there. Better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it I suppose. Thank you very much.

    Some suggestions:

    Use the Filter to shorten the list to the tags you need to access to complete your project.

    Once you have used the Tags you need, sort your Tag Database by "Used ". Delete those tags that you do not expect to ever use.

    One method that I have used (I am not promoting) is to export a copy of the tag db from the P3000 and find the group/range of entries, delete everything else and Import into the EA software ONLY that group/range from the edited file. -- your success depends on your accuracy in editing the tag db file --

    Adding array elements to EA software can also be tedious work!

    I usually add the FIRST array element in the EA software then save/export tag db. Then edit the saved tag db file - copy/paste/edit to create the remaining tags. Then import back into the EA software.

    Use care when importing and read any error messages.

    Save the HMI project ONLY after verifying and are satisfied with the results.
