90-70 Vars in lookout

I have a project in which i need to check the variables in a GE Fanuc 90-70 Controller. I am using lookout 5.0, and the documentation for the GE Series 90 driver is not detailed. I need to grab vars such as %I00001 and so forth. Thanks.

Mike,

I'm working with GE Fanuc PLC's for the first time. I'm attempting to take an older GE Fanuc system, and update the HMI that it communicates with which is currently CIMPLICITY Ver. 3.0 Build 300 and I'm upgrading to NI Lookout V5.0.

The I/O Map that was provided to me has and Address scheme similar to this:

ADDR: %R105 ADDR_OFFSET:17

I'm not familiar with this ADDR_OFFSET? Can you describe to me what it is and how I would translate it into something I can use in my software? At first I thought this was a particular bit in that memory location, but the information that I have tells me the R1-R16383 are 16 bit holding registers encoded as unsigned binary integers ranging from 0 - 65535. If this is the case, then the only logical values in the
ADDR_OFFSET column could be 0-15.
