Rslogix500 to Rslogix5000
(OP)
The bit in the Rslogix500 is N7:70/7 and N7:70/5. Those are the running bits for the aerators and i know there already in the Rslogix5000 program because we can start and stop the aerator from the VTS which is connected to the Control Logix which is run by RSlogix5000 but i can't find the bit in 5000. It's mapped to 5000 by the file number 7. So if i can start and stop the aerators from the VTS that is the bit i need for the timer but it's listed as N7:70/7 and i'm not sure how that corrspondes to 5000 if it does at all.

This should show you how the N files are mapped to the tag names.

N7:70/5 should then map in to pointc_info[70].5

RE: Rslogix500 to Rslogix5000
If you have an existing tag such as point_C_Info, and you change the dimension to create an array, you will have to correct the existing addresses in the program because the tag name 'point_C_Info' will no longer be valid.
You must then specify an element of the array, for example, point_C_Info[0] for word 0, or point_C_Info[0].0 for word 0, bit0, etc.
I think it is also important to be sure that the data type is INT since you mapping 16 bit integers from the SLC.
