In order to convert a program from a GE 90-30 to Allen Bradley, I am searching for a budget-friendly solution to pull the existing program. This is my first time working with a GE system and I do not have the necessary software. I recall a previous experience where I was able to send out one of the processors to have the program extracted, but that option is not available this time. I have purchased Logicmaster software, but I am unsure if it is compatible with the old processor. Is there a way to determine if I need Logicmaster or Proficy software beforehand?
If you own Logicmaster, consider reaching out to GE professionals in your area for assistance. Please note that the serial port driver in Logicmaster may not be compatible with a 64-bit operating system, so you may need to use a 32-bit XP or an earlier version. Another option is to contact your nearby Emerson distributor, who may provide you with a trial version of Machine Edition that is functional for up to four days without a license. However, if you are not purchasing PLCs from them, they may not have much motivation to help. Alternatively, you can hire a local individual with GE expertise to assist with uploading tasks.
I plan on setting it up on my Windows XP emulator to ensure everything runs smoothly. Next, I'll contact a nearby supplier to explore my options and see how they can assist me.
You may be able to determine the compatibility of your Logicmaster software by checking the actual part number of your GE 90-30 processor. Logicmaster software generally works with older processors, but there may be some exceptions. If you can't ascertain from the part number, try reaching out to GE's customer support for clarification. If it turns out that Proficy is needed, you could also look into purchasing a temporary license or finding a service provider who can extract the program for you without needing to send away the hardware.
