    RSLogics 5000 plc V13.03.00 forces

    That is correct, after i found out that the programmer mapped the inputs an outputs, i realised that these bits are not the real I/O's. Still it's strange that 3 weeks ago we could change the state of these bits while we connected new inputs to the PLC. At that time we toggled or forced them for...

    RSLogics 5000 plc V13.03.00 forces

    Well rjmaster, this is exactly my problem. Even if i enable forces in the toolbar (see attached file), the force off and force on option for BOOLEANS remains inaccessible. I found out that the programmer "mapped" the in and outputs and used the bits in these maps as aliases for the bits i try to...

    Our RSlogix 5000 is standard edition. Where can i find this SSV instruction ? Can forces be enabled by this instruction as well ? As for the redundancy option, you are wright NWBeaver, we run in redundancy mode. We switched over primary function to the other module and we even stopped them both...

    RSLogics 5000 plc V13.03.00 forces

    Yes, it is greyed everywhere i try to force it, also in the ladder. In fact for all the in- and outputs the force options are greyed. (attachment) Last week we've added an additional input which we forced to test it without any problem. Next day no forces were possible anymore. Very strange...

    RSLogics 5000 plc V13.03.00 forces

    Hi everybody, We seem to have an annoying thing going on. Lately we can't toggle nor force any in- or outputs in one of our plc's anymore. These are all controllertags and boolean so it shouldn't be a problem. The helpfiles didn't help us to find a solution. It used to work properly so we assume...
