Hi
i am using IMO iSmart plc.
the ladder software, SMT v3.33 , when using monitor mode, all my comments that i written in the ladder disappear ?
I think it is when I go into monitor mode,
is it a case of write comments, re-save ladder at this point, then use monitor mode, ?
all help welcome
thanks

RE: Imo iSmart
I haven't used that coding software or PLC unit but to me it sounds like it might just be loading a program from the PLC maybe before you added comments so try saving the program when you finish adding comments and with the code or as you update then load that into the PLC unit then put it into monitor mode and see if it saves them.

thanks,
yep, maybe is a case of writing to PLC, save as this point, then see if comments in ladder remain put,
I will re-test and come back
RE: Imo iSmart
That unit does not store any comments in itself, it has very little memory. Comments can ONLY stored in the off-line PC software program. I think maybe you can see comments if you are running the PC software in monitor mode while connected to the relay, but it's been a while now, I'm not sure.

RE: Imo iSmart
thanks for detailed reply
I think the comments seem to be lost from memory, after disconnecting from monitor mode,
it could be that I am switching power off before disconnecting from monitor mode, maybe this is the cause ?
