Thread: Touch Screen Monitor Program

I have a touch screen monitor (HMI) that I am tinkering with. It programs a series of tempurature controllers I have. I got it to talk to one controller but it doesn't pass on the info to 1 other controller I have attached for practice. Here is the code I have.

Code:

int range = 5;

while(State != 3)
{
	switch(State)
	{
		case 0:
			if((Abs(PV1-ActiveSP) < range)&&(Abs(PV2-ActiveSP1) < range)) // wait until PV is with range
			{
				State = 1;
				FinishTime = GetNow() + ActiveSoak;
			}
			break;

		case 1:
			if(GetNow() >= FinishTime)	
			{
				RunningStep++;
				State = 2;
			}
			break;
		case 2:
			if((SPs[RunningStep] == 0)&&(SPs1[RunningStep] == 0)&&
			(Ramps[RunningStep] == 0)&&(Ramps1[RunningStep] == 0)&&
			(Soaks[RunningStep] == 0)&&(Soaks1[RunningStep] == 0))
			{
				State = 3;
				CTL = 0;
				ActiveSP = 0;
			}
			else
			{
				State = 0;
				ActiveSP = SPs[RunningStep];
				ActiveRamp = Ramps[RunningStep];
				ActiveSoak = Soaks[RunningStep];
				ActiveSP1 = SPs1[RunningStep];
				ActiveRR1 = Ramps1[RunningStep];
				ActiveSoak1 = Soaks1[RunningStep];
			}
			break;
	}
}

The HMI has a TAG section and all of my TAG's are associated correctly.

This may be odd since it's not a OS specific problem.

Any help is appreciated. Just a warning, I will have many more questions I am sure. Plus if you can help with this I can direct you to the program software that is free with this HMI and you can view my Database completely.

Thanks,
