Post by: newtocnc on August 06, 2007, 08:22:35 PM

Hello,

Does anyone know how to read in g100 a/d inputs in vb.
and how to output data on D/A outputs.??

I am trying to build external FeedOverwrite pot.

Thanks
John

I will try my best to look at this for you in a couple of days if no-one else has you straight. I'm running on a BOB right now and will be a couple of days before I finish the job it is running.

Are you brining in the Inputs and outputs on the Modbus? If so, then use the:

y=GetInput(x)                        'x is the "Index number" of the modbus register your brining in
FeedOver=(y/*****) times 100              '****** this is your diverder it will be a number = to how many bits are in your register type (8, 12, or 16 bit), and give you a number 1-100
SetUserDRO(1200, FeedOver)        ' sets a user DRO to what your over ride is

SetModOutput(x, *****)              'This sets a 16 bit, word going out to "Index x", if you need to use less than 16 bits(native Modbus output is hex), use bit masking.
