Do we need to write down the tags separately for the HMI in the plc program? I'm using Siemens PLC and Cmore HMI, there's an error showing communication timeout PLC001. I mapped the tags like start stop directly with the HMI.

My daily carry is an 87 V MAX, I also have a 116. I like Fluke. I have a hard time justifying a $1200 meter to troubleshoot 2-10v or 4-20ma once or twice a year for HVAC work.

Thank you

Thanks for the video. It is so hard to find up-to-date info on the C-More HMI software. I struggled with getting the PLC and HMI communicating. And making and using the right tags for HMI internal tags.... But, one thing I'd like to know more about is building the diagnostics and alarm screens. The alarms are extremely hard to understand in the productivity suite software. But I'm slowly getting it all figured out. (Hopefully), don't quite understand the HIGH.HIGH / HIGH / LOW / LOW,LOW stuff. I saw you have the picture of the whole PLC and INPUT/OUTOUT boards and was able to make screens for each one. Do you need to import those images of each component? Then, associate them with a different screen? I know this video is a year old, but maybe someone can shed some insight or link a video with some info. That would be great!!!! Thanks again!

Are these HMI’s compatible with the P1AM-100 and P1AM-200 productivity open arduino compatible CPU’s

Would you be willing to answer a few questions? I’m doing my first brx/cmore/sure servo 2 project

Winders are a challenge. Great job. Thanks for the insight.

A most interesting video. Web windups and let-offs can be a real challenge. The C-More HMI is very nice and much cheaper than Rockwell's. Anyway great job. 🥳 Thank you.

my 88 is around 30 years old and the first one I still pick up.

You can also do mnemonic programming with Keyence KV Studio, Mitsubishi GX Works 2 & 3, and Omron CX Programmer.

Thank you for your great explanation. I have multiple Automation direct DL 405 cpu PLCs running on Thermal converter, Pyro-oil processing and waste water treatment systems and recently I incorporated C more 6inch, 12inch and 15inch panels at each location and one more at the main office. Your video gave me many help learning somethings that did not saying on manual or other UA-cam. Great help and look forward to have a communication for the future large project development. Regards

Do you have any videos concerning Web Access examples, or App Access to only certain buttons, say like jogging.

Making the background data live was ingenious.

Great video! Thanks! I have subscribed. I have an upcoming project setting up a HMI to an ancient SLC500... Hehe! The existent PLC program is twenty years old, and documented about as well as Mayan history, and probably in the same language. But we do know the goesintas and goesoutas so we may be able to pull it off. Gonna start with a one button 'auto' to 'manual' switch as proof of concept. There are no tags so I will have to find the Inputs and Outputs on function observation. It will take a while. I am going to use a C-more, probably the one in this video. Automation Direct has always made me look smarter than I really am. Don't tell anybody. I am retired, but guys like us don't ever really retire... We just consult off into the sunset.

Have you worked with a Nextion display?

Hi, this is a great video for those who really want to learn C-more panel programming... small projects example like this can simplify learning.. . I am taking the opportunity to ask a question. I am doing a project using a DL06 PLC with a CTRIO module in it. I scaled the quadrature of an encoder input to be displayed in a c-more panel .. I am getting the scaled value in V2000 and V2001, but do not know load both values in the RLL in order to display it in the panel ... could you help me with some tips in how to do it...thanks so much in advance...

Thanks so much sir!

This may be a dumb question but at the 6:37 mark you are putting in the IP address of your PLC correct? I am also struggling to connect my PC to my C-More, I manually changed the IP address to one that I think should work - I'm still confused about how IP addresses work exactly this is all a new world to me. But I am not even getting the option to select that device, I tried a variety of different IP addresses but can't seem to get anything to work. Do you have any ideas? I am seeing forms saying it may be something with my firewall. Thanks

Good work. Your a great educator thank you.

So, the PLC I have setup is communicating to the HMI (Shows when lights are ON). The HMI receives info from the PLC but the HMI does not seem to send anything to the PLC. For example, START button on HMI does not turn anything ON on the PLC, tag names are matching and as BOOL data type. The physical START button works fine. Any idea why it doesn’t work?

Do these screens work with Allen Bradley Micro800 series’s PLC’s?

I struggle a bit with recalling all of the command abbreviations, but I see a lot of value here in time savings for the ones I can remember.

Great video. I've been working on C-mores for a few years. I like these panels. There's a shared properties feature that will let you change common attributes on multiple objects at once. (Think all keypad button font size at once) Liked and subscribed.

Thanks, I just started a few months ago at a company that uses almost exclusively Automation direct DL06s on Directsoft 6 with mostly Cmore and some Red Lion HMIs, I came from 2 years at an integrator that did all allen bradley. If you have any programming tips (or links to tips) for going from studio5000 to Directsoft6 I would greatly appreciate it!

There's no need to open the tag DB to select a tag, simply type it in and it will predict it. If you do go to the tag DB there's no need for the double click, just single click and click OK to close the DB. Tag will be selected. The pop-up is for manually adding tags and it's non-closure feature is nice. When using bits of word in C-More the tags need to be created manually, not having that close after each one speeds up the sequential process. C-More involves far too many clicks, but these seems avoidable with the right work flow. The all caps is a complaint, it also wrecks the find and replace. There's a few threads about it and the more folks that jump in there, the sooner it may get fixed.

Big fan of AD, especially the Productivity series and C-More. After dealing with multiple generations of Allen Bradley, Mitsubishi, Omron, Panasonic, and every other line at Automation Direct; I think Productivity is by far my favorite programming environment. The C-More's are incredibly capable, especially at the price point.

Are you familiar with the ATLAS HMI's from Automation Direct? Does it use the same software? Also thanks for posting!

Very informational!!
