Okay I've researched pull-up and pull down resisters now. I have a general understanding of them. Which way would it need wired in our system. This also brings me back to my original question, why do we not need these on the v130, but we need them on the canbus. The Banner DF-g2 is not in a floating state. It either outputs a 0 or a 1 based on how we have it set, Light Operate, or Dark Operate. I don't believe it to be in a floating output state ever.

The pulse is adjustable and can be 1ms all the way to 100ms In our situation are we better to use a 5.1kohm pull-up resistor or pull-down resistor? With NPN I assume pull-down. My experience with these resisters is little to none. I guess im confused why we need these for the canbus but not for the v130.

Okay we are NPN, so we need a 10k Pull-up/Pull-down between each counter and the canbus? I assume 10k will be sufficient? I have 10 configured with + as we are NPN.

I am using a banner DF-G2 as the counter I have the rail connected as NPN. I didn't clarify in the above post as much as I could, and I have done further investigating since. I will summarize below When you hook up a manual switch as an input, and close the input so voltage comes to the input side, it pulses across all 10 inputs, and lights up all 10 input lights. It almost appears as this canbus is a defective unit. However when the Banner DF-G2 pulses, it doesn't illuminate a light to any input lights, or count on the specific input.

I am using a EXF-RC15 paired with a V130-t33-T2 so I can achieve a total of 5 High Speed Counters. This meaning 2 High Speed Counters on the V130 unit, and 3 High Speed Counters on the EXF-RC15. The high speed counter function on the V130 is working perfectly fine. The High Speed Counters attached to the EXF-RC15 are not functioning. I started with a fresh file and simply added the three high speed counter inputs, than pulse them to see if they count, and they do not respond. I hook the same counters into the V130 and they work perfectly fine. I than assumed it could be the EXF-RC15 needs a longer pulse to count it, so I incresed the pulse length to the longest setting, and still no count function. Than I assumed the rail was malfunctioning, so I direct connected an inout to it and fed power, and it shows a 1, so it is working however it shows a 1 across all inputs when i do this. My question is there a setting on the EXF-RC15 that I am missing somewhere? What could cause this? Thanks in advance

Thank you so much!!!

I ordered a v130 PLC and a V100-17-CAN to pair with it. I instealled the CAN as the directions stated, however there is a resister? I assume is what it is that was shipped with the CAN. The label states it is SA\RES-121. Where does this go/what is it? Thank you!

We hooked up a u90 yesterday and have had no issues, we can use the store 0 fine. This is a bug that should be able to be done on the v130.

I reworded my last post wrong and it did not help you guys. I have attached my ladder here for one. For two, I attached a screenshot, in my ladder I literally cannot compare to a Double Word. Don't have the option, can not do it I can not grasp how to say what I am thinking as far as the count. We have a finite number on the actual count. Than we offset that to get us back to zero and than we use the Software HSC as our "count" to base everything off of. Well once our actual count, not offset count reaches its finite max, it will not reset, and will not continue counting. I am probably thinking about this wrong, so hopefully attaching my ladder file helps. Thank you Just kidding both files are to large to upload here. I will resize the image to attach here, but the ladder can not be posted as its 110KB and I have a max of 93kb upload.

This got us a little further but we still run into issues. I cannot Compare (Greater than or equal to) a DW. We will have an issue once our HSC actually reaches its finite limit of 32,767 than cannot move without a power reset. It would keep resetting the "Software HSC" But never the finite number on the actual counter. Also, we cannot use interrupts since we are on an expansion pack.

Thank you

I am having issues with having my total count reset at the target point. My hardware is: V130-33-B1 Ex-D16A3-TO16 I have toggled both the high speed counter and high speed counter with reset on the expansion pack, neither option reset it at its set point. I tried using store 0 into the count, however that is not working either. The decrement portion of the ladder is working however. I tried resetting the numeric insterad of store direct as well with no luck. I have attached how my ladder is set up, as well as the high speed counter. Any pointers of where I am overlooking?
