Ethernet Global Data (EGD) Issues
1. EGD configuration Compatibility Issue: VersaPro does not allow you to configure EGD exchanges for one byte of data
(or an odd number of bytes) when using word type memory such as %R, %AI or %AQ. These exchanges are always even
byte exchanges (2, 4, …).
Resolution: To send or receive one byte (or an odd number of bytes) of data via EGD to PLCs programmed with Control
or other non GE
PLCs, VersaPro must configure the EGD bytes in bit type memory (%I, %Q, etc). Word memory
(%R etc) does not allow addressing in individual bytes which means a word causes 2 bytes to be used in EGD transactions.

Equality Issues
VersaPro may not always be equal after a load operation. Some of the more common causes are:
1. The program in the PLC was programmed by Logicmaster. Upon loading the program from the PLC, VersaPro
changes the programmer field from Logicmaster to VersaPro which creates an inequality.
Resolution: After loading from the PLC, store the same program back to the PLC. This will make the folder equal with the
PLC.
2. Loading into a different folder than originally stored to the PLC. If you load into a folder that has different content
than the program stored to the PLC, the folder may be unequal after the load because some variables may be unused and
have a different retentive state than in the PLC.
Resolution: It is recommended that you load into a new blank folder or into the same folder that was stored to the PLC to
avoid this problem. The other option is to use the Find Unused Variables command on the Folder menu, delete these
variables and then verify the program with the PLC.
