Q8. I already have a version of ISaGRAF Workbench V3.50 installed and licensed. What should I
do or install to make it
EMBEDDED
PLC compatible?
If you already have an ISaGRAF Workbench V3.50 running on you Host PC, use the following
instructions to make your ISaGRAF Workbench compatible with
EMBEDDED
PLC:
(a)
Download
the
ISaGRAF_V3.50.zip
file from OEM Technology Solutions website
(
(b)
Extract all files to a local directory
<ISaGRAF Install Dir>
.
(c)
Copy
<ISaGRAF Install Dir>
\EXE\RABBIT.RSC and
<ISaGRAF Install
Dir>
\EXE\ISATXT.ERR to where your ISaGRAF main directory resides
<ISaGRAF Main
Dir>
\EXE (for example, C:\ISAWIN\EXE). Confirm yes at overwriting ISATXT.ERR file.
(d)
Edit
<ISaGRAF Main Dir>
\EXE\RSCDEF.RSC
and add the following line:
Resource=RABBIT.rsc
This line will add the “RABBIT: TIC code for Rabbit-based controllers” in the Targets list in
the Compiler Options window of the ISaGRAF Programs Manager. You will have to
recompile all your programs against this TIC code type in order to work with the
EMBEDDED
PLC BL2500.
Q9. I have a BL2500 with 256K Flash. Can I use
EMBEDDED
PLC BL2500?
The
EMBEDDED
PLC Firmware Kernel for BL2500 Version 1.04 was built specifically for the BL2500
with Rabbit core module RCM3200 (10/100BaseT, 512K Flash, 256K + 512K SRAM, 44.2 MHz
clock speed, Z-World P/N: 101-0602). If you have any special requirements regarding targets that
EMBEDDED
PLC supports, visit OEM Technology website or contact sales directly via phone +61 2
99669424 or email
Q10. What does the letter C after the BL2500 in the BSP filename stand for?
The ‘C’ letter in the filename
BL2500C_BSP_V1.04_9-0003-006.zip
corresponds to the type of
the BL2500 board supported by
EMBEDDED
PLC. Thus, the letter C corresponds to the BL2500 with
Rabbit core module RCM3200 (10/100BaseT, 512K Flash, 256K + 512K SRAM, 44.2 MHz clock
speed). At this moment only the BL2500 mentioned above is supported by
EMBEDDED
PLC.
Q11. Can I use the
EMBEDDED
PLC Utility to download binary files compiled with Dynamic C?
No. The
EMBEDDED
PLC Utility works only with
EMBEDDED
PLC firmware kernels. Use Rabbit Field
Utility instead.
Q12. Can I use the Rabbit Field Utility to download the
EMBEDDED
PLC Firmware Kernel to the
Target?
No. If you do so, when you tried to enter the run-time license using the
EMBEDDED
PLC Utility the
following message is displayed:
