Hi! It is not easy to answer this question for two reasons. First, we do not see the original project being converted. Second, Siemens and AB memory organisation and tagging concepts are notably different. There are number of interesting topics on this forum stating differences between Siemens and Rockwell PLC and programming philosophy. A lot of forum experts and legends contributed these discussions. One such example on the following link: Excellent features of Siemens which AB Control Logix Does not have Personally, i'd use tag tables for all physical inputs/outputs. Rest of the data can be reorganized into data blocks logically grouping similar data together - with the main purpose to achieve structural integrity of the original software. And yes, it is OK to have tags in DB's, even it they are all bools. Loosing symbolic names after project upload would not concern me - you should always suppose that you will have original software for upload/download. My 5 cents. Hope this helps. Regards. |
