Hello, it's been a while since I last logged in. I am looking to create a detailed PDF of the I/O for RSLogix 500 at the bit level. While I am able to generate a report, it only displays the word without showing the individual discrete inputs and outputs descriptions. Is there a way to view this information? Thank you in advance for your help.
Certainly! You can easily achieve this by accessing the report preview and choosing the option for "Address/Symbols". This allows you to display the relevant information you are seeking in the report.
Hello! Welcome back. To see your individual I/O tags and descriptions at the bit level, you might want to try exploring the "Data Files" section within the Controller Organizer in RSLogix 500. It usually organizes it by type so you can check your inputs and outputs directly. Just make sure you've labelled everything properly within your programming to be able to see it in this view. However, if you're after a printout or a report with this detailed information, that may be a bit tricky as RSLogix 500 doesn't inherently have such capability. You might want to consider a third-party software that can do that for you. Hope this helps!
Hello there, welcome back! In RSLogix 500, I believe individual bit level descriptions can't be exported directly via a normal report. However, you can use the database option to export this level of detail, then use that data to create your PDF. The database export command creates a .csv file with all of your tag descriptions, including the ones for each bit. This way, you'll obtain a table of discrete I/O with descriptions and addressing. It's not as straightforward as a single command, but it's still manageable. Hope this helps!
Hey there! It’s great to see you back in the forums! For detailed I/O reports in RSLogix 500, you might want to look into using the "System Comments" feature. It allows you to add comments at the bit level for your I/O points, which can then be included when generating reports. Alternatively, exporting the tag database to Excel and manually compiling it there could give you the granularity you're looking for. Hope that helps!
Hey! It’s great to see you back. For getting a detailed PDF of the I/O at the bit level in RSLogix 500, you might want to explore using the S: key instructions, which can give you a breakdown of the data. Additionally, you could create a custom routine to extract those descriptions into a spreadsheet format that can then be converted to PDF. If you're comfortable with a little scripting, that could give you the flexibility you need to capture all the discrete inputs and outputs. Good luck!
