Hi! I have some questions with using DOS Roclink software. I have some problems with configuring History/Hour. How I can rename some historical ponts. For example: I need to see history of gas floving in mounts, than for that I Have kotel7,MNTFL, and the same point on kotel8, but in program I see lable kotel7 two times (kotel7,mntfl; kotel7, mntfl). How can I rename the second piont. because it shows us parameters of kotel8. Help me please! In manual I cant fint smth aboout it. Thank you.
HI. i am trying to set up a sampler on a ROC809 that is loaded with NGL liquid measurement. when i go to ROC, Information, and the points tab it show that the maximum samplers i can have is zero and the number active is zero. what could be the reason that i can not add any samplers.
Talked to an Emerson rep and found out that i had to upgrade to the latest ROC809 Firmware and update my Roclink software. then i was able to add up to twelve samplers under ROC menu/ information / points tab. Sampler showed up under Control drop-down, Sampler/Odorizer.
Hi,
Does ROCKLINK 800 support OPC/ODBC connectivity options? i have a central data historian and the flow computer installed is not connected to DCS. i plan to integrate historian with FloBoss 103/ROCKLINK 800. any pervious experiences share would be appreciated.
When I use to provide technical support, it was common to suggest known-good equipment be swapped out, one at a time, to help track down the culprit. Perhaps replacing the module rack, or the Discrete Output module.
Also, If I do nothing, everything will begin to work after a period of time. We have this data in our plant historian, so I can look back and see where the data came and went many random times at all times of the day and night.
The voltage is fine even during the time the ROC is not functioning properly. Are you suggesting other interferrence through the power supply? We are using a Fisher 24 vcd power supply. We did also try swapping out power supplies for lack of any other ideas for the cause of all this.
Thanks for your help.
Personally no, I do not. However, there are many excellent Emerson local business partners that you can ping. I recommend going here and finding one in your area. -US/brands/remote/contacts/Pages/contactus.aspx
Hi.. i want the flow calculated by the ROC 809 to be used in another device. so i was trying to configure an AO point. but i dont know how to assign the flow calculated by the ROC to a particular AO channel. how can be this done..? do i have to use soft points or/and FST registers..? please reply..
I am trying to Remove an Old version of Roc 800 and it will not Uninstall. What are the Windows Regestry Keys it creates so I can remove them and get a newer version installed. Not listed in Add and Remove programs and I am trying to get a Newer version installed. The System Is Windows Xp SP3 and it still sees the old version as installed.
ROCLINK 800 uses WMI to get COM port information from the computer. This computer probably needs some attention, and I recommend repairing WMI. This link might provide some assistance: -wmi-on-windows-7
I am using ROCLink 800 on Win7 for ROC 800 Series.I have configured ROC 800 as modbus RTU master on RS485.I have configured Master to read a floating point value from slave. It shows the communication status as 8 i.e received slave response correctly. however I am not able to view the value of this float register. Kindly let me know what is the configuration needed to actually view this value.
To do this you can try two things:
1- go to modbus master and check what is the master register been specified for the register you are trying to read. Go to register table and search for the register you specified in master table in all tables. You should be able to see where it is located
2- do a fresh configuration for the modbus register you are trying to read. In master table specify the start/ end slave register, function code, master register where to save it in ROC and number of them. Go to register table find an empty table and add the master register you specified and assign it to soft point, note that the soft point you specify should not be used some where other wise it will be rewritten all the time. Go to which table in soft point you selected locate the sofpoint data and click update
Hi,
Thanks for the reply. I had configured the Soft point for storing the modbus register value. But still it was not showing the correct value. Later I found the conversion code column whose value has to be somewhere between 65 to 72. In my case it is working for 67. After setting this value I was able to view the register value in Soft point TLP configured.
Does anyone have Roclink for windows running on a Windows 7 machine 32Bit. Everytime I load it everything looks like its going to work, but when I click on the Icon it comes up with a Error saying that (One or More Arguments are not correct)
Can anyone help
HI Scott, I just built a new VM windows xp sp3, On my previous laptop also a VM windows xp i used Roclink800 1.9 and it worked great,it installs fine on new unit but in trying to start the program i keep getting this error after the login screen:
Usernames and their associated password are stored in the ROC_USER.mdb. That particular file is the only file that is not removed during uninstall because it (also) contains the list of ROC and FloBoss connections you create (once ROCLINK 800 is open) and see in the TreeView.
Editing the mdb using Access is not an option for end users; that defeats the security features our customers want/expect. At least, last I checked the end user was prevented from edit the fields in the database (.mdb).
When I came here to commission the system in Nigeria both units would communicate to the HMI computers. After about two weeks both units failed to communicate with the HMI computers. I tried two notebook computers and the two HMI computer with several cable arrangements which were tested with the RS 232 port on the gas chromatograph and they all worked. So based on that and discussions I ordered one set of modules and had the other set repaired. Yesterday I tried the new and repaired modules but the would not communicate.
DS800 may not be necessary. One of our Local Business Partners, Vinson Process Controls , already provides a solution for the ROC800 for well testing. You should contact them for details on the Well Test Manager UserC application for the ROC800-Series.
Hi we have a roc800 at our plant and we are trying to communicate with wireless transmitters by rosemount 3051s. The transmitters never quite complete the network connection process. They always get stuck on the final step 4, waiting for bandwidth allocation and the ROC800 gives us an error code 80. Any help?
I need to integrate a FloBoss 103 into a IGSS SCADA thru a wireless link (Modbus RS232 or RS485 i/o).
Is there any tutorial or document that could assist me on doing so?
Thanks for your kind attention.
With the Roc or Floboss, when you open the comm port settings, there is a radio button that determines which protocol or owner controls the com port, on the Modbust Host this must be set to Modbus Master, on the slave you can leave it set to Roc / Modbus slave protocol. It will see the message and determine if it is Roc protocol or modbus automatically. you must set up the master table in the host to look at the RTU address of the slave, this address (on the 107) will be the same address that you designate in ROC information > Address and Group, it only looks at the address.
Pete, thanks for your answer.
I am using ROCLINK800 Version 1.87, I do not see such a radio button in the Com Port configuration screens; should I use a newer version of ROCLINK?; if so, where can I download it? I registered at supportnet but I have been given a Basic subscription and it appears to not give access to download the program.
Hello guys,
I am currently a student in instrumentation engineering technology and have been given a project to do that involves setting up a Floboss 107 with ROClink 800 and creating an HMI through DeltaV. We are having issues setting up the FloBoss 107 on the ROClink program as we have never used it before. We need to configure it with a Differential Pressure transmitter(3051 Rosemount), a static pressure transmitter(also a 3051 Rosemount), and an RTD to measure a mass flow. Any help or pointers on how to set up these analog inputs along with configuring an analog output would be greatly appreciated. We cant figure out how to set our Analog Output to calculate mass flow, so that is the main issue. Also if any of you have had any experience connecting the floboss to DeltaV to be used as an HMI, some help would be awesome.
Thanks.
Please describe the difference btw ROC 800 and DS 800?
Also please clearly mention as to when DS 800 will be required?
My project involves configuring FB 107 with a couple of TT, 4 FIT and 2 PT, 1 MA & 1 GC, will i need DS 800 for it or will ROC 800 suffice?
Also is there any method to run 2 FB 107 in redundant?
This is a prime example of a question to propose to our experts at the forum. However, I will reply in a quick fashion. A ROC800 is an RTU. DS800 is a development suite for for customers to perform advanced functionality not available in standard firmware. Please ask this question on the forum, and also please explain this acronyms for us that might not know what you mean. Thanks/Cheers!
Thank you for the quick response.FIT is flow transmitters on an orifice meter, which in simple terms would be Differential pressure transmitters, PT is pressure transmitter and TT is temperature transmitters. Please comment on the redundancy question as that is the biggest problem that I have not been able to tackle. We cant use precision resistors!
I have a customer with a ROC 300 series controller. I have been able to get online with it using an old version of ROClink for Windows (1.01). There is a user program loaded on the ROC that communicates to a remote location via Modbus. I need to edit this communication setup. Do I need special software to achieve this? This is my first encounter with a ROC, so my knowledge is extremely limited.
