The Year 2000 Compatibility Check works by checking whether a database uses
a Time of Day clock, marking those that do as “Suspect”. Thus, a “Suspect”
database will not necessarily fail to work at the turn of the century — it’s just that
the possibility exists.

When you select a device, NxT waits for
you to type a phone number and an optional description. Type the phone number first. Use only numbers and these
special characters:
Use a comma (,) to pause the dialing for half a second.
Use a dash (-) to separate the
prefix and number.
Use a space ( ) to mark the end
of the phone number.
NxT stores a list of the phone numbers you enter. Click to select from
it.
Type a short description after the
number so you can recognize it in
the list later. Separate the number
and description by a <space>.

If NxT connects to your network but the Select Device dialog does not appear,
your network or modem may be expecting a password. Try changing your
modem type to Dial-Chat, then connect again.

Chapter 3 Connecting to a Controller
To type a password in the Dial-Chat window:
If you’ve selected Dial-Chat as your modem type, the Dial-Chat window appears
as NxT connects to your network through a modem. It lets you type a password
so you can log on to your network.
For more information, see “Choose settings for your modem.” on page 39.
The first line displays
information about the
connection.
NxT sends each letter to the modem as you type
it. You cannot correct a mistake by pressing
BACKSPACE or DELETE, or overwrite an error by
moving the cursor back using the arrow keys. Although these actions appear to work on the
screen, they do not actually correct the error.
Type your password
when you are prompted for it.
To correct a mistake, press ENTER and type your
password again when you are prompted.

It is highly recommended that you only attempt Flash RAM Executive operations
if you are directly connected to the device by:
•
The local Modbus or Modbus Plus port of the controller; or
•
The local Modbus port of the device.
You may not be able to establish the needed connection through any other port.

In the Online editor, each instruction is sent to the controller as it is entered,
whereas in the Offline editor, an entire network is saved at a time.
The Panel bar lets you
display or hide the five
side panels: the Data
Watch (online only), Instruction List, Back Referencing, Symbol List,
and Traffic Cop panels.
You can select instructions for your logic from
the Instruction bar
Move the display between networks with this
scroll bar. If the entire
network can be displayed at once, this is
the only active scroll bar.
The Documentation
Window lets you type
descriptors, short comments, and long comments directly from the
Network Editor.
If the current network
doesn’t fit in the screen,
a scroll bar appears
here.
The Status Bar displays information about
the active database.

The Single Sweep function should not be used to debug controls on machine
tools, processes, or material handling systems when they are active. Once the
set number of scans is solved, all outputs are frozen in their last state. Since no
logic solving is occurring, all input information is ignored. This can result in
unsafe, hazardous, and destructive operation of the machine or process
connected to the controller.

If the actual scan time is less than the target scan time, the controller waits for
the target scan time to elapse before performing the next scan. If the actual scan
time is more than the target scan time, the controller continues on with the next
scan. This lets you slow the scan time when debugging logic so that the controller
doesn’t solve logic too quickly for you to catch errors.

On some cards, the initial address for a table of I/O points must begin on a word
boundary. That is, it must be one more than a multiple of 16, like 300001 or
100017. If you type a starting address that is not on a word boundary, NxT will
adjust the address down to the nearest boundary.

may also affect other references. As an alternative, you can set the Long

It is good programming practice to enclose all expressions in parentheses, even
when they’re not actually needed. This makes the equation easier to read and
ensures that operations in an equation are solved in the correct order.

It is especially good programming practice to enclose all expressions within a
conditional expression in parentheses, even when they’re not actually needed.
This makes the equation easier to read and ensures that operations are solved

Forcing an Equation Network output coil on or off affects how power is passed
through that coil; however, the power flow of the output coil itself is still displayed
based on the status of the Equation Network. For example, “Result>0” will still
show power if an Equation Network’s Result is greater than 0. This may make for
some strange visual effects, such as an output coil that seems to be passing flow
but doesn't affect anything that follows.

The PCFL equation is stored in postfix notation, sometimes called “reverse
polish notation”. This is different from infix notation, the left-to-right equation
format you’re probably used to.
For more information on postfix notation, see “About Postfix notation” on

If you force an address either on or off, then overwrite the address with a new
one, the original address remains FORCED. However, if an address is forced,
deleting it removes the force unless the address is referred to elsewhere.

The X axis (and therefore this time range) is subdivided into 200 samples.
Decreasing the Resolution value is equivalent to “zooming in”, and increasing the
value is equivalent to “zooming out” the display. For example, a 100 ms
resolution * 200 samples gives you an X-axis range of 20 000 ms (20 seconds)
in “width.” You could “zoom out” the view by setting the resolution higher (e.g.
1000 ms * 200 samples = 200 000 ms “wide”).

You can record logged
data to file directly from the
Trend view.
Addresses are shown
in the color they are
plotted. The line style
(e.g., dots, dashes) is
shown under each
address.
The vertical cursor is
shown at the leading edge
of the trend. You can go
backwards through the
trend by pressing ←. Doing so moves the trace bar
back through the trend,
and the sample time/data
values are shown in the
status bar.
You can plot up to 60 values at a time. For up to 9 discretes, square waves are
set to 1/9 the height of the trend display. For more than nine discretes, the square
waves are resized as necessary to fit.

The bar graphs indicate where the Process Variable and Set Point
are between the low engineering range and the high engineering
range. The higher the percentage, the closer it is to the high engineering range. The Process Variable is likely to change over time.
You can change the Set Point using the Adjust button.
This area lists the register address (left) and current value (right) of the PID’s Process Variable, Set
Point, and Output Variable.

Unlinking a macro removes all connections between it and your main logic
database, leaving the macro's logic behind as regular network logic. This affects
a single macro insertion only — if the same macro appears elsewhere in the
same logic network, its bond remains.

When Codegen runs a script file, it just appends new macros to the end of the
main logic database. It does not check to see if those macros already exist
elsewhere within the main logic database. Thus, if you run Codegen twice on the
same logic database, two sets of macros are inserted at the end of your logic.

The Monitor only shows changes in a controller’s health status as the Monitor
runs, not what the status is when monitoring begins. For example, suppose you
begin monitoring an unhealthy controller. When you start the Monitor, it does not
notify you that the controller is unhealthy, but does let you know if the controller
changes from unhealthy to healthy.
To continuously monitor the status of one controller:
*
#C0.0.A

The Net Scan window has a separate Monitor function to check that its graphical
depiction of status lights matches the controllers.
For more information, see Performing a network scan on page 50.

The Monitor Status window appears.
The Monitor Bar shows the number
of words you are monitoring, the
number of state changes in those
words, the number of times they
have been checked, and the
amount of time in seconds it takes
to complete one check.
Changes in controller health status
are reported, date and time
stamped, then logged to a file.
The Status Bar displays the name of
the log file and the controller’s address, type, and state.

If a status change occurs, the Monitor displays it on your screen and logs it to a
file. This file usually has the same name as the current database with the
extension .MON. If you’re working from the Startup Screen or Online Editor with
no open database, the file is called MONITOR.MON. If the Monitor finds a .MON
file for your database (or a MONITOR.MON file if you don’t have a database), it
prompts you to add to the existing file or create a new one.

The LAN Monitor only shows changes in your controllers’ health status from the
last time the Monitor ran, not the current status of the controllers. For example,
if you set the LAN Monitor to scan at one-hour intervals, when you start the
Monitor, it won’t tell a controller is unhealthy or one hour later if the controller is
still unhealthy. The LAN monitor will tell you the controller has changed from
unhealthy to healthy in that hour.
To scan the health of a network of controllers at regular intervals:
#C0.0.)1
@!''
The Status Indicator
shows whether the
Monitor LAN timer is
running or stopped.
When the LAN Monitor
detects a status change
in a controller, it notes
the event in the log.

"!
When the timer reaches zero, the LAN Monitor analyzes the health of all
controllers on your network. It records any changes in a controller’s health to the
controller’s log file, then resets the timer and starts it counting down for the next
cycle. The LAN Monitor continues cycling until you stop it.
