Can the Cmore Import Heap items?

I'm building an EA9 HMI connected to a H2-DM1E Domore Processor.

I'm using DoMore Designer 2.9.3

And C-More Prog. Software 6.73

 

In DoMore Designer, I have built 20 or so Heap items with UDT Structs. I was under the impression that those tags and elements would export to the CMore.

I export it with the Domore Driver format with Struct fields.

I check export used elements which do not use a nickname.

And I uncheck Do Not export all nickname struct fields.

 

However, None of the UDT Hepa items import into the C-More.

From what I've seen, it looks like only built in structs are imported.

 

Is this correct, or am I missing something?

    Your C-more device is probably the original Do-more Driver. Add or change it to the Do-more Symbolic Driver. The original C-more Do-more device driver only supports a subset of the built-in blocks.

    Franji1,

    That was it.

    I went to Panel Manager and changed my device's driver from Do-more serial to Do-more symbolic serial. This was a project used on a similar machine that has been updated and used an older software/hardware. Thanks for the help!

      UDTs are very powerful. The Symbolic Driver implementation on the C-more side is easy - it's just text (no binary conversion block number, heap item, etc.). All the smarts are in the Do-more PLC firmware! RESTAPI utilizes the same mechanism in the PLC firmware.
