Did you try the HMI element called "Time Function"?

I do this all the time with Vision PLCs. I can't imagine not being able to with UniStream. Did you try it?

Moved to the appropriate forum.

@Rory, I split this off into a separate topic in the correct forum. Hopefully you'll get better and faster help that way.

Good information. Thanks @kratmel!

Maybe a little off-topic, but I need to have redundant power supplies (24V for the PLC) in a system. What is the best approach to this? Two power supplies running all the time in parallel or a relay that switches when a power supply fails? I'm not sure the relay would be fast enough to prevent the PLC and other related 24V hardware from going down. Any education in this area would be greatly appreciated. @Joe Tauser, do you have relevant experience with this?

Yes, this is my understanding as of now.

This is all SOOO entertaining (seriously)! Unraveling one of the great mysteries of our professional lives.

No problem with the wait. Many thanks for the help! Yeah, that's the $64,000 question I don't have an answer to yet. The request is from my customer's customer and I haven't got the details yet. But I heard Bluetooth and thought I should at least get educated on it so I can respond realistically.

Thanks, @kratmel. The person in the Forum post I mentioned was French, so this makes some sense. Apparently Unitronics was able to obtain radio electronics approval in France but didn't pursue anywhere else.

Good thought, @viscoelastic, though it looks like I'd have to obtain 5V.

I have a customer who is inquiring about obtaining some data from a PLC using Bluetooth. searching the Unitronics website has been fruitless. Searching the Forum returned someone mentioning a com module V100-17-BT1, which I can find no other mention of. Does Unitronics have any capability to communicate via Bluetooth?

Try re-running Version Swapper. Also make sure the project file is on a local drive and not nested too deeply in the folder structure.

There is some Vision I/O that does this as well. Drove me crazy until I got confirmation from Unitronics support.

I'm not sure how you can have a 24VAC digital input - makes no sense to me. However, can you just rectify the inputs to obtain 24VDC? Or use relays?
