What Rockwell platform are you using? PLC-5, ControlLogix, SLC-500?
We are using PLC-5... I hope you can help! we are working with our local service manager and they are not very responsive. Thanks |

I dont believe there is anyway to change the length of each element in a string data type in a PLC-5 processor. Each element in the string data file has a maximum length of 82 characters, however, you can use the .LEN parameter to determine how many characters are currently used. If you dont want to use a string data type, you could try using an ASCII data type. Why do you need to reduce the character count?
