from the Picture Editor output DX file department...
Honeywell TDC3000 Virtual Printer
Local and wide area networking in factory automation. topic
Posted by Rudy on 23 July, 2008 - 10:04 pm
A client of ours has TDC3000. They used to supply us with their schematic DX (not DS) files, that could be generated in the picture editor after loading a schematic using a command something like this 'PRINT NET>SCHEMATICS> DEBUG'. Before the upgrade, this command resulted in a DX file placed into the NET>SCHEMATICS folder.

Customer is remotely located and I have only some feedback on the behavior after the upgrade, however the client claims he can output the file to a printer but not a file. Honeywell claims they do not support nor did they ever support this feature. (I think there is a misunderstanding between Honeywell and a client.)

Could you please advice on how to remedy the situation and/or offer alternatives such as where/how could we convert the DS files into a DX files.

Thank you,

Rudy

Hi,

It is still suported. Add a file name.

'PRINT NET>SCHEMATICS>MYFILE DEBUG'

Regards.

Hi,
What will also work is:

MPRINT NET>FILE_LOCATION>FILE DEBUG

Where FILE is a text file which includes all schematics you want to print. The file need the extension .EL this extension is NOT part of the command!
