[Display Data log on HMI in visalogic]

Thank you sir,

I was afraid that would be the case 🙂 I'll get busy putting it together 😉

thanks again,

[Display Data log on HMI in visalogic]

I noticed that the unilogic has a utility for displaying the data log info on the HMI but how do you go about doing this in visalogic?

Very cool,  I will look at this tonight:-)

Gentlemen,

I have only been learning this stuff for a month please be kind hehe:-).  Net 86 through 90 are the first fold that I am referring to that I am trying to use time to find the mid position of a sheet with.  The fallowing folds will fallow suit when this one is worked out.

The rest of the project is still a work in progress although I have worked out the Fold 1 jam circuit and have yet to make the same changes to the rest of the jam nets.

Anyway, I wrestled with posting the whole program but figured being my first one its a learning project anyway.

Thank you for any help guys,

JayC.

Ausman,

Right on thank you!  I have found that the SB13 is not very accurate and has been inconsistent in its rythym.

I will post the finished working logic once I get this reworked??

thank you,

Isakovic,

Thank you,

 You and Joe are on the same wave link or just good at what you do:-).  I may be going the encoder route by the end of this but being its folding linen and not running something like a CNC milling machine I'll try using time to start with.    I'll post the logic as soon as I get to the desk top.

thanks again,

JayC.

Thank you Joe,

 I have a corporate PLC guy that steered me the same direction by using the SB 13.   The only issue I have now is after counting the 1 second pulse dividing it by 2,  I have it loading in to a TD.  

At this point I'm looking to set up a set coil to power the TD when the input goes low.  Then reset after the output coil goes high.  I will post the logic when I get to the desktop??

thank you for any help:-)

I have considered and encoder and could still go that direction but being that the sheet folder that we are upgrading is one set speed I didn't go that direction.  Geez these newbies huh:-)..

What would be the best way to set that up in the net?

I have an issue with finding the most efficient way to measure the amount of time a input is high, then divide by 2, then load the time on top of a preset time delay coil.   This part of the logic is to locate the middle point of a sheet to fold it in half.    Any direction is much appreciated:-)

thank you,

JayC.
