Hello all!
Searching the forum for an answer, I was unable to find anything related to the issue I'm experiencing, therefore I've started this new topic.
I'm trying to make SM-70 with a CAN port installed perform two different functions:
1. simulating a sensor
2. reading out a sensor
In situation 1. the SM-70's CAN connection would be connectend to a read-out device which will read out the values the operator will be entering on the SM-70, in situation 2. the actual sensor will be connected to the SM-70's CAN connection and the sensor will be read-out by said SM-70.
Now, my idea was that I'd just make a selection procedure in which the different CAN configurations could be selected by the operator but Visilogic won't let me load a program with multiple CAN configuration blocks, not even in different subroutines. As a work-around I thought it would be a good idea to have two different programs installed to the SM-70 and have the operator select which program should be booted.
Does any one have an idea as to how this could be realised? maybe a totally differnt way to have both functions in one device?
