  1. Thank you both very much for your expert help, much appreciated 👍
  2. Yeah I have seen this and was wondering if the PTO Output handle the resistance: But I assume this mean I can use O1 to drive the high resistance? or is this a range for these output? Is this indicating that the higher load increases the turn off time? Cheers
  3. Hi I am trying to drive a Gecko Stepper Drive from a UNISTREAM PLC I have the UID 0808-THS (PTO) module and the Gecko drive already so I am to some degree committed to these components. The issue is that the Gecko only works with a 5V input and my understanding is the PLC only outputs 24V? is this correct or when you configure the system to run as a PTO it switch to a NPN type contact with no Voltage? Does the OUTPUT O0 and O1 turn into a NPN type connection that can have its own power supply or will they still produce a 24V PTO signal when activated? I have looked at Transistors and MOSFETS but all seem to drive the other way Lower Voltage to Higher not Higher voltage to lower voltage. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Only other thought was a simple voltage divider of (O0) 360ohm ^ 90ohm (CM2) tapped in the middle to produce a 5V signal (metal oxide so I can dissipate 5W) but my raw electronics is a bit rusty to test on system. Any help, or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
  4. Hi Swervo I had a similar issue and I used the "webserver" in unilogic to create a nice HMI and ran a touch screen and a Raspberry PI on the other side of the machine to feed data to the "far" side operator. I didn't quite get to write a load script for the Raspberry Pi but operators seemed more than comfortable opening the web browser and having the home page set to the PLC web page. Cheers Andrew
