Compact Control Builder AC800M + Panel Builder 800
Hi Stefan,
I hope everything is good with you,
Now I have bought the software Panel Builder 800 and opened my project "VEMAK".
![]()
I have also changed the IP-address and imported the Access Variables

It seems that I'm not able to insert a new pic.
Now I'm stuck again,
I've tried to right-click on the Peripheral configuration and drag the controller to the "Unused functions"?
(I don't have the controller)
I´m able to simulate the code, in Compact Control Builder.
But I can`t simulate the same task in Panel Builder 800. (Believe me, iv searched the Help in both programs and the web and...)
When I press, what looks like a "play" button the Runtime instance is showing the standard starting page.
"Welcome to PP835..."
Could you please explain to me what I'm missing to get the connection properly and get all the event list showing so I can export them to an excel file?
Could you please help me, and tell me what I'm doing wrong? What am I missing?
/Sebastian

I dont have enough skills in PP800 to be able to provide any useful hints for you.
Here is about what I know: if you download the project to an AC 800M Coft Controller, the PP800 should in theory be able to connect and present data from it. Rembember to use :2 as MMS port number (same as you have to do in Control Builder M to be able to download to a SoftController). In recent versions, there is built in support for having multiple soft controllers running on the same PC.

Thanks,
Yes, the controller "Compact builder", Access Variables eg. "iStatus" and "oResetAll"
Then in
Panel Builder 800, - View>namelist>import>ABB MMS import format>
import>SystemId>"0">Name:PLC_Vemak>OK.
Then, I press View>nameliest. There, in the name tab list: "0:iStatus" and I/O tab list: "iStatus" and also Data type Signed 32-bit".
The connection is there, why can´t I simulate the process?
What am I missing?
Could someone please explain?
Thank you

PP800 builder can upload variables from Control Builder M without having any controller of any kind.
For live data, the panel must be able to connect to a running 800M controller, hard or soft where it can drain from.

I don't it's possible.I tried to figure out myself a year ago. The Panel Builder software does not accept a port-number behind the IP address.

@Sib: thanks for the info!
Have not tested this myself (I don't work so much with PP800).
