  1. Eric, Take a look at the program and the modifications I made. Service page has mode selector and timer input for setting your reset time for the trailing edge of your sensor. I've made some assumptions about your system, namely; that what you're asking for is a printer trigger "ON" from the trailing edge (in addition to the existing leading edge mode) of your input sensor (I1) which is digital in nature and thus will either be ON or OFF, and it would appear that the sensor would be ON through the duration of its sensing period and then OFF once the workpiece is no longer sensed, and THAT is what we're calling a "trailing edge", which is to say that the desired function is to trigger your printer on this trailing/falling edge of (I1) sensor. Modified nets are pink in color for reference. MC810E_V2.03.vlp
  2. In your program, the leading edge printer trigger output is reset (turned off) by the trailing edge of the workpiece. That said, if you want to trigger the printer on the trailing edge of the workpiece, what (action) will reset (turn off) your printer trigger? Would it be the leading edge of a subsequent work piece? A timer? etc.
  3. I’ve used an RS-232 buffered smart switch from B&B Electronics with good results. The 4 port is the one I’ve used.
  4. Dan, Would selecting the "toggle" function not do this for you? You would have to use a "Binary text/switch" function versus a standard button. Creating a button with the toggle function ON would allow you to touch the button on the HMI once causing it's (MB) bit value to go high and remain high. Touching the same button after that would make the MB go to its low (OFF) state. -Arnie
  5. In my fruitless search for an affordable, decent looking HMI housing for the V1210. I decided to build my own. Pictures attached. The housing was built with the idea of being able to mount the screen to an extendable articulating arm, and potentially mounting two V1210's side by side. Let me know what you guys think. The inner/smaller square frame will allow for sturdy mounting of the screen/housing using both or one axis. There may already be something on the market that can do this, but I'm not aware of any. -Arnie
