OK I have my main PLC program written and I am starting the HMI programming. Can anyone give me an example step thru of how to share the tags. Lets say I place a switch on the Touch Screen, I want it to toggle a bit in my PLC logic. I set the button up in the HMI. At this point I have not created any HMI tags in the C-more.... Then what are the steps involved in getting this button to operate the PLC bit ?

    The tags aren't shared. You can either Export from RSLogix and Import into C-more. Or create each tag in C-more manually. These should help:

    Thank you !!

    That's exactly what I ended up doing, Exporting the tags from RSL500 then importing them into the Cmore. Everything worked perfectly..

    Once I was able to see the process it all made sense......

    Thanks Again!
